Answer:

0.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force = 20N

Compression = 0.08m

Unknown:

Spring constant = ?

Elastic potential energy = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

F = k e

F is the force

k is the spring constant

e is the compression

20 = k x 0.08

k = 250N/m

Elastic potential energy;

EPE = $\frac{1}{2}$ k e² = $\frac{1}{2}$ x 250 x 0.08²

Elastic potential energy = 0.8J

A gas occupies a volume of 20 cubic meters at 9,000 pascals. If the pressure is lowered to 5,000 pascals, what volume will the g

forsale [732]

We need to consider no change in the temperature of gas (isothermal transformation)

Volume and pressure are inversely proportional magnitudes, so we can write:

$P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2\\
\\
9.20=5.V_2\\
\\
V_2=\frac{180}{5}=36 \ m^3$

You want the current amplitude through a 0.450-mH inductor (part of the circuitry for a radio receiver) to be 1.90 mA when a sin

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Frequency required will be 2421.127 kHz

Explanation:

We have given inductance $L=0.450H=0.45\times 10^{-3}H$

Current in the inductor $i=1.90mA=1.90\times 10^{-3}A$

Voltage v = 13 volt

Inductive reactance of the circuit $X_l=\frac{v}{i}$

$X_l=\frac{13}{1.9\times 10^{-3}}=6842.10ohm$

We know that

$X_l=\omega L=2\pi fL$

$2\times 3.14\times f\times 0.45\times 10^{-3}=6842.10$

f = 2421.127 kHz

The orbits of ____ lie closer to the sun than does earth's orbit.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Mercury and Venus lie closer to Sun than position of Earth

Explanation:

As we know that all planets around the sun in the range of their distance can be arranged as following:

1). Mercury.

2). Venus.

3). Earth.

4). Mars.

5). Jupiter.

6). Saturn.

7). Uranus.

8). Neptune.

Since Earth lie at 3rd position from sun so two closer planets are Mercury and Venus

Which example best illustrates kinetic energy?

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In all actuality. The car may not be fully moving but since it's on a hill and the earth moves it makes the most sense. Also since the car is at a slope by the law of motion what goes up must come down so the car is in fact moving.
