A spring has a length of 0.270 m when a 0.300 kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.750 m when a 2.80 kg mass hangs from it.

(a) What is the force constant (in N/m) of the spring?

Answer:

k  = 51.09 N/m

Explanation:

Given,

mass, m₁ = 0.3 Kg

length of spring, x₁ = 0.27 m

Mass, m₂ = 2.80 Kg

Length of spring, x₂ = 0.750

We know that

Restoring force, F = k x

Gravitation force, F = m g

Now,

m₁ g = k x₁ ......(1)

And

m₂ g = k x₂   .......(2)

where k is spring constant

Subtracting equation (2)- (1)

(m₂-m₁)g = k(x₂-x₁)

(2.8-0.3) x 9.81 = k (0.75 - 0.27)

24.525 = k x 0.48

k  = 51.09 N/m

Hence, spring constant is 51.09 N/m.

How does overproduction impact natural selection?
vova2212 [387]

Overproduction is a driving force in natural selection, as it can lead to adaptation and variations in a species. Darwin argued that all species overproduce, since they have more offspring than can realistically reach reproductive age, based on the resources available.

While brayden is traveling along a straight interstate highway, he notices that the mile marker reads 260. Brayden travels until
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

<em>displacement = -85 miles</em>

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a magnitude used to measure the linear space between two points. It's computed as the subtraction of the final position minus the initial position which results in a vector. Notice the displacement only depends on the initial and final positions and not on the path the object has traveled.

Brayden starts to measure his position when the mile marker reads 260. Then he travels to the 150-mile marker and goes back to the 175-mile marker, his final position. As mentioned, the displacement only depends on the relative positions, so

displacement = 175 - 260 = -85 miles

a student attaches a 0.5 kg object to a 0.7 m string and rotates the object around her head and parallel to the ground. how much
Marina CMI [18]

The object would have a centripetal acceleration <em>a</em> of

<em>a</em> = (12 m/s)² / (0.7 m) ≈ 205.714 m/s²

so that the required tension in the string would be

<em>T</em> = (0.5 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ 102.857 N ≈ 100 N

(rounding to 1 significant digit)
