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

Plsssss asappppppppp
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

20 meters.

Explanation:

In the graph, the x-axis (the horizontal axis) represents the time, while the y-axis (the vertical axis) represents the distance.

If we want to find the distance covered in the first T seconds, you need to find the value T in the horizontal axis.

Once you find it, we draw a vertical line, in the point where this vertical line touches the graph, we now draw a horizontal line. This horizontal line will intersect the y-axis in a given value. That value is the total distance travelled by the time T.

In this case, we want to find the total distance that David ran in the first 4 seconds.

Then we need to find the value 4 seconds in the horizontal axis. Now we perform the above steps, and we will find that the correspondent y-value is 20.

This means that in the first 4 seconds, David ran a distance of 20 meters.

A swimming pool is 4.0 m in depth; a swimmer at this depth feels discomfort in the ear. Calculate the net force on a 0.50-cm-dia
Mashcka [7]

The net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum is mathematically given as

F= 0.76969 N

<h3>What is the net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Pressure is  mathematically given as

P = ρgh

Therefore

P= 1000*9.8*4

P= 39200 Pa

Where

A= pi*(0.005/2)^2

Generally, the equation for Net force is  mathematically given as

F = PA

F= 39200 *( pi*(0.005/2)^2)

F= 0.76969 N

In conclusion, The net force is

F= 0.76969 N

shows two parallel nonconducting rings with their central axes along a common line. Ring 1 has uniform charge q1 and radius R; r
Ainat [17]

Answer:

\dfrac{q_1}{q_2}=2\left(\dfrac{2}{5}\right )^{3/2}

Explanation:

Given that

Charge on ring 1 is q1 and radius is R.

Charge on ring 2 is q2 and radius is R.

Distance ,d= 3 R

So the total electric field at point P is given as follows

Given that distance from ring 1 is R

\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon _o}\dfrac{q_1R}{(R^2+R^2)^{3/2}}-\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon _o}\dfrac{q_2(d-R)}{(R^2+(d-R)^2)^{3/2}}=0

\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon _o}\dfrac{q_1R}{(R^2+R^2)^{3/2}}-\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon _o}\dfrac{q_2(3R-R)}{(R^2+4R^2)^{3/2}}=0

\dfrac{q_1R}{(2R^2)^{3/2}}-\dfrac{q_2(2R)}{(5R^2)^{3/2}}=0

\dfrac{q_1}{q_2}=2\left(\dfrac{2}{5}\right )^{3/2}
