A spiral spring of 8cm extended to 9.2cm when a load of 1.6N is applied. what is the force constant of the spring, provided the

elastic is not exceeded.

Explanation:

By Hooke's Law, Fe = kx.

Since Fe = 1.6N and x = 9.2cm - 8cm = 1.2cm,

k = Fe/x = 1.6N/1.2cm = 1.33N/cm.

The side length of a square is modeled by s=A, where A is the area of the square. Graph the function. What is the side length of

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

√35 square units

Explanation:

Area of square = 35square units

Formula of area of square is a =s*s where a is area and s is side

So,

s*s = 35

s^2= 35

s = √35

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity

dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

$I = F*t$

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

$P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)$

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

$I = p$

$Ft = m(v_1-v_2)$

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

$p=m(v_1-v_2)$

$p = 75*0.15$

$p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s$

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

$Ft = m(v_1-v_2)$

$F(0.025)= 1125$

$F= 45000N$

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N
