Answer:

1.05m or 105cm

Explanation:

Using the hooke's law equation as follows;

F = –k.x

Where;

F = force (N)

x = extension length (m)

k = constant of proportionality (N/m)

According to the information given in this question;

Displacement (x) = 85cm = 85/100 = 0.85m

Force = 12500N

Using F = kx, we find the proportionality constant

k = F/x

K = 12500/0.85

K = 14705.8N/m.

Also, since K = 14705.8N/m, the displacement (x), when the force increases to 15500N is;

F = kx

x = F/k

x = 15500/14705.8

x = 1.05m or 105cm

A 2-kg box sits on a horizontal table. the force of friction between the box and the table is 10 n. the box is pushed to the rig
dangina [55]
By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m

The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N

The mass is 2kg.

Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2

The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2

Answer:

0.0312J

Explanation:

Let x be the distance the staple moves:

x=0.150m-0.115m=0.035m

And spring constant is k=51.0N/m

PE=0.5kx^2\\=0.5\times 51.0\times 0.035^2\\\\=0.312

Hence, the potential energy is 0.0312J
