What was David Berkowitz best known for? How did arson play a role in his past?

2 answers:

5 0

David Berkowitz, who became known as Son of Sam, went on a murderous rampage in New York City during the 1970s, taunting and insulting police, until they captured him. On August 10, 1977, 11 days after his last murder, David Berkowitz, known as Son of Sam, was arrested and later sentenced to six consecutive 25-years-to-life terms. Arson has evolved, since the 18th century, from a wrongful individual act into an effective means of collective violence, too. From 1750, the privatisation of common land in England limited peasants' access to resources such as firewood and game. Hope this helped!

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

$k_{1}=20\ N/m$

$k_{2}=30\ N/m$

$k_{3}=15\ N/m$

$k_{4}=20\ N/m$

$k_{5}=35\ N/m$

According to figure,

$k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

$\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}$

$k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}$

$k=10\ N/m$

k and $k_{4}$ is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

$k'=k+k_{4}$

Put the value into the formula

$k'=10+20$

$k'=30\ N/m$

$k_{1}$ ,k' and $k_{5}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}$

$k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m$

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Calculate the energy of a photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from =7 to =1.

Harrizon [31]

1.549×10-19lJ is the energy of a photon emitted when an electron in a hydrogen atom undergoes a transition from =7 to =1.

The equation E= hcE =hc, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light, describes the inverse relationship between a photon's energy (E) and the wavelength of light ().

The Rydberg formula is used to determine the energy change.

Rydberg's original formula used wavelengths, but we may rewrite it using units of energy instead. The result is the following.

aaΔE=R(1n2f−1n2i) aa

were

2.17810-18lJ is the Rydberg constant.

The initial and ultimate energy levels are ni and nf.

As a change of pace from

n=5 to n=3 gives us

ΔE

=2.178×10-18lJ (132−152)

=2.178×10-18lJ (19−125)

=2.178×10-18lJ×25 - 9/25×9

=2.178×10-18lJ×16/225

=1.549×10-19lJ

4.0 kg objects mive a distance of 7.8 m under the action of a cinstant gorce of 5.6 N. how much work is dine on object?

alexdok [17]

Answer:

43.68 J

Explanation:

Distance moved= 7.8 m

Force = 5.6 N

Work Done= Distance moved * Force

= 7.8 *5.6

=43.68 Joules

CONFUSED!!!

otez555 [7]

A. Impulse is simply the product of Force and time. Therefore,

I = F * t ---> 1

where I is impulse, F is force, t is time

However another formula for solving impulse is:

I = m vf – m vi ---> 2

where m is mass, vf is final velocity and vi is initial velocity

Therefore using equation 2 to solve for impulse I:

I = 2000kg (0) – 2000kg (77 m/s)
I = -154,000 kg m/s

B. By conservation of momentum, we also know that Impulse is conserved. That means that increasing the time by a factor of 3 would still result in an impuse of -154,000 kg m/s. So,

I = F’ * (3 t) = -154,000 kg m/s

Since t is multiplied by 3, therefore this only means that Force is decreased by a factor of 3 to keep the impulse constant, therefore:

(F/3) (3t) = -154,000 kg m/s

Summary of Answers:

A. I = -154,000 kg m/s

B. Force is decreased by factor of 3
