Answer:

1) k = 10 [N/m]

2) a-) x = 0.4 [m]

b)  x = 0.075 [m]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this type of problems that include springs we must use Hooke's law, which relates the force to the deformed length of the spring and in the same way to the spring coefficient.

F = k*x

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons]

k = spring constant  [N/m]

x = distance = 10 [cm] = 0.1 [m]

Now, the weight is equal to the product of the mass by the gravity

W = m*g = F

where:

m = mass = 100 [g] = 0.1 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

F = 0.1*10 = 1 [N]

Now clearing k

k = F/x

k = 1/0.1

k = 10 [N/m]

2)

a ) if the force is 4 [N]

clearing x

x = F/k

x = 4/10

x = 0.4 [m]

m = 75 [g] = 0.075 [kg]

W = m*g = F

F = 0.075*10 = 0.75 [N]

x = .75/10

x = 0.075 [m]

Write a scientific explanation to describe where earthquakes and volcanoes most commonly occur and their relation to plate bound
vovangra [49]
Earthquakes and volcanoes most commonly occur around plate boundaries because of the movement from the plate boundaries. The interactions between the plates by moving under, upon, or sliding against other boundaries may cause earthquakes and volcanoes.
