<span>k = 1.7 x 10^5 kg/s^2
Player mass = 69 kg
Hooke's law states
F = kX
where
F = Force
k = spring constant
X = deflection
So let's solve for k, the substitute the known values and calculate. Don't forget the local gravitational acceleration.
F = kX
F/X = k
115 kg* 9.8 m/s^2 / 0.65 cm
= 115 kg* 9.8 m/s^2 / 0.0065 m
= 1127 kg*m/s^2 / 0.0065 m
= 173384.6154 kg/s^2
Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 1.7 x 10^5 kg/s^2
Since Hooke's law is a linear relationship, we could either use the calculated value of the spring constant along with the local gravitational acceleration, or we can simply take advantage of the ratio. The ratio will be both easier and more accurate. So
X/0.39 cm = 115 kg/0.65 cm
X = 44.85 kg/0.65
X = 69 kg
The player masses 69 kg.</span>
The correct answer would be C
<span>When temperature is increased,
the rate of dissolving increases. The kinetic energy of the molecules of the
solute and solvent molecules is high thereby increasing their contact. An example
is mixing powdered sugar to the water. When you add water to the sugar, the
dissolving process is slow. However, when you increase the temperature of the
water by boiling it, the sugar dissolves immediately. </span>
