Answer:

29856.521 N/m

Explanation:

m=Mass\ of\ diver=70\ kg\\x=Length\ compressed\ by\ spring=2.3\times 10^{-2}\ m\\a=Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity=9.81\ m/s^2\\F=Force\ exerted\ by\ diver=m\times a\\\Rightarrow F=70\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F=686.7\ N\\k=spring\ constant\\F=k\times x\\\Rightarrow k=\frac {F}{x}\\\Rightarrow k=\frac {686.7}{2.3\times 10^{-2}}\\\therefore k=29856.521\ N/m

A current exists whenever electric charges move. If ΔQ is the net charge that passes through a surface during a time period Δt,
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

It represents the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b

Explanation:

As given in the question the current is defined as the derivative of charge.

                                  I(t) = dQ(t)/dt ..... (i)

But if we take the inegral of the equation (i) for the time interval  from t=a to

t =b we get

                                   Q =∫_a^b▒〖I(t)  〗 dt

which shows the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b. Form here we can say that, change in charge is defiend as the integral of current for specific interval of time.

Which is usually greater for a pair of surfaces, the coefficient of static friction or the coefficient of sliding friction? why
lorasvet [3.4K]

Explanation :

Static friction is the frictional force between two objects that are at rest. While sliding friction is the frictional force between two objects in contact and are sliding w.r.t each other.

Static friction is usually greater than sliding friction because in static friction the contact forces is more and the interlocking between objects is tight as compared to sliding friction.

Determine the CM of a rod assuming its linear mass density λ (its mass per unit length) varies linearly from λ = λ0 at the left
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L

I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3

Explanation:

Here mass density of rod is varying so we have to use the concept of integration to find mass and location of center of mass.

At any  distance x from point A mass density

\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{2\lambda _o-\lambda _o}{L}x

\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x

Lets take element mass at distance x

dm =λ dx

mass moment of inertia

dI=\lambda x^2dx

So total moment of inertia

I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda x^2dx

By putting the values

I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda_ ox+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x^3 dx

By integrating above we can find that

I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3

Now to find location of center mass

x_c = \dfrac{\int xdm}{dm}

x_c = \dfrac{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_ 0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})xdx}{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})}

Now by integrating the above

x_c=\dfrac{\dfrac{L^2}{2}+\dfrac{L^3}{3L}}{L+\dfrac{L^2}{2L}}

x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L

So mass moment of inertia I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3 and location of center of mass  x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L
