You compress a spring by x, and then release it. Next you compress the spring by 2x. How much more work did you do the second ti

Answer:

Work done is \frac{3}{2}kx^{2}.

Explanation:

The work done by the spring is the same as the potential energy stored in the spring.

So that,

work done = potential energy = \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

where k is the spring constant of the material of the spring, and x is the compression.

When the spring is compressed by x;

work done = \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

When the spring is compressed by 2x;

work done = \frac{1}{2} k(2x)^{2}

                  = \frac{1}{2} k(4x^{2})

                  = 2kx^{2}

Therefore,

The work done the second time more than the first = 2kx^{2} - \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

                                                                                = \frac{3}{2}kx^{2}

The work done the second time more than the first is \frac{3}{2}kx^{2}.

the specific heat of water is 4.2 j/c. if it takes 31,500 joules to heat to warm 750 g of water, what was the temperature change
defon
The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m is the mass of the substance
C_s the specific heat capacity
\Delta T the increase in temperature

In our problem, the mass of the water is m=750 g, the specific heat is C_s = 4.2 J/g ^{\circ}C and the amount of heat supplied is Q=31500 J, so if we re-arrange the previous formula we find the increase in temperature of the water:
\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}= \frac{31500 J}{(750 g)(4.20 J/g^{\circ} C)}=10^{\circ}C

A short current element dl⃗ = (0.500 mm)j^ carries a current of 5.40 A in the same direction as dl⃗ . Point P is located at r⃗ =
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The magnetic field along x axis is

B_{x}=1.670\times10^{-10}\ T

The magnetic field along y axis is zero.

The magnetic field along z axis is

B_{z}=3.484\times10^{-10}\ T

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the current element dl=(0.5\times10^{-3})j

Current in y direction = 5.40 A

Point P located at \vec{r}=(-0.730)i+(0.390)k

The distance is

|\vec{r}|=\sqrt{(0.730)^2+(0.390)^2}

|\vec{r}|=0.827\ m

We need to calculate the magnetic field

Using Biot-savart law

B=\dfrac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi}\timesI\times\dfrac{\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}}{|\vec{r}|^3}

Put the value into the formula

B=10^{-7}\times5.40\times\dfrac{(0.5\times10^{-3})\times(-0.730)i+(0.390)k}{(0.827)^3}

We need to calculate the value of \vec{dl}\times\vec{r}

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=(0.5\times10^{-3})\times(-0.730)i+(0.390)k

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=i(0.350\times0.5\times10^{-3}-0)+k(0+0.730\times0.5\times10^{-3})

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=0.000175i+0.000365k

Put the value into the formula of magnetic field

B=10^{-7}\times5.40\times\dfrac{(0.000175i+0.000365k)}{(0.827)^3}

B=1.670\times10^{-10}i+3.484\times10^{-10}k

Hence, The magnetic field along x axis is

B_{x}=1.670\times10^{-10}\ T

The magnetic field along y axis is zero.

The magnetic field along z axis is

B_{z}=3.484\times10^{-10}\ T

Which of the following represents an upright image? <br> A. -do<br> B. +m<br> C. -m<br> D. +do
Tom [10]

Answer:

B. +m

Explanation:

The magnification of an image is defined as the ratio between the size of the image and of the object:

m = \frac{y'}{y}

where we have

y' = size of the image

y = size of the object

There are two possible situations:

- When m is positive, y' has same sign as y: this means that the image image is upright

- When m is negative, y' has opposite sign to y: this means that the image is upside down

Therefore, the correct option representing an upright image is

B. +m
