A can opener makes work easier by increasing force.
Explanation
Technically a can opener is a simple lever that increases the force with which we remove the cap of the can. Levers are rod shaped objects with fulcrum at one end and the length of the lever has a positive impact on the force.
considering the equation
work=force*distance
indicates that increasing the length of the lever/can opener increases the work done by it.
Answer:
Explanation:
In equilibrium , weight of mug is equal to restoring force .
mg = kx where m is mass of mug , k is spring constant and x is extension .
k / m = g / x = 9.8 ms⁻² / .025 m
= 392
frequency of oscillation n = 
= 4.46 per second.
Weight equals mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity.
Hi!
The correct answer is : <u>either stretch or compress the spring</u>
<h3>Explanation</h3>
The spring constant, denoted commonly as k, is a component of Hooke's law which describes the force that is required to compress or stretch an object to be directly proportional to the length of extension or compression.
F ∝ x
where F is the force applied to the spring, and x is the length of extension or compression.
The equation of Hooke's law is consequently
F = kx
where k is a non zero constant, known as the spring constant.
