A spring is hung from the ceiling. A 0.442-kg block is then attached to the free end of the spring. When released from rest, the
siniylev [52]

Answer:

K=58.8N/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=0.442

Drop distance d=0.150

Generally the equation for Spring Constant is mathematically given by

 K=\frac{2mg}{x}

 K=\frac{2*0.442*9.8}{1.150}

 K=58.8N/m

17.Explain the different ways that an object can become electrically charged.
Debora [2.8K]

17.

There are three different methods for charging objects:

- Friction: in friction, two objects are rubbed against each other. As a result, electrons can be passed from one object to the other, so one object will gain a net negative charge while the other object will gain a net positive charge due to the lack of electrons.

- Conduction: this occurs when two conductive objects are put in contact with each other, and charges (electrons, usually) are transferred from one object to the other one.

- Induction: this occurs when two objects are brought closer to each other, but not in contact. If one of the two objects has a net charge (different from zero) on its surface, then it will induce a movement of charges in the second object: in particular, in the second object, charges of the opposite polarity will be attracted towards the first object, while charges of same polarity will be repelled further away.

18.

Charged objects produce around themselves an electric field. The strenght of the electric field is given by (assuming the charged objects are spherical)

E=k\frac{q}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q is the magnitude of the charge and r the distance from the centre of the charge. As we see, the strength of the field is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

Also, the direction of the field is determined by the sign of the charge:

- if the charge is positive, the electric field points away from the charge (this means that other positive charges in the field will be repelled away)

- if the charge is negative, the electric field points towards the charge (this means that other positive charges in the field will be attracted towards it)

19.

Electrical force is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges, and r their separation.

Gravitational force is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and r their separation.

Similarities between the two forces:

- Both are inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects, r

- Both are non-contact forces (the two objects can experience the forces even if they are not in contact)

- Both forces have infinite range

Differencies between the two forces:

- The electric force can be either attractive or repulsive, while the gravitational force is attractive only

- The electric force is much stronger than the gravitational force, due to the much larger value of the Coulomb's constant k compared to the gravitational constant G

A mover pushes a 46.0kg crate 10.3m across a rough floor without acceleration. How much work did the mover do (horizontally) pus
Alchen [17]

Answer:

<h3>2,321.62Joules</h3>

Explanation:

The formula for calculating workdone is expressed as;

Workdone = Force * Distance

Get the force

F = nR

n is the coefficient of friction = 0.5

R is the reaction = mg

R = 46 ( 9.8)

R = 450.8N

F = 0.5 * 450.8

F = 225.4N

Distance = 10.3m

Get the workdone

Workdone = 225.4 * 10.3

Workdone  = 2,321.62Joules

<em>Hence the amount of work done is 2,321.62Joules</em>

A uniform string of length 0.50 m is fixed at both ends. Find the
kozerog [31]

Answer:

configuration of string:

Node - Antinode - Node    or N-A-N

This is 1/2 wavelength since a full wavelength is N-A-N-A-N

f (fundamental) = V / wavelength

F0 = 300 m/s / 1 m = 100 / sec

F1 = 300 m/s / .5 m = 600 / sec

Each increase is a multiple of the fundamental since the wavelength

increases by 1/2 wavelength to keep nodes at both ends of the string
