During spring semester at MIT, residents of the parallel buildings of the East Campus dorms battle one another with large catapu

lts that are made with surgical hose mounted on a window frame. A balloon filled with dyed water is placed in a pouch attached to the hose, which is then stretched through the width of the room. Assume that the stretching of the hose obeys Hooke's law with a spring constant of 82.0 N/m. If the hose is stretched by 2.70 m and then released, how much work does the force from the hose do on the balloon in the pouch by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length?

Answer:

110.7 J

Explanation:

Hooke's law is represented by the formula:

F = ke  where F is the force in Newton, K is force constant and e is extension in m

work done = 1/2ke² = 1/2 K ( e² - e₀²) and e₀ is the extension at relaxed length

e₀ =0

work done = 0.5 × 82N/m × (2.70 m)² = 110.7 J

What effect does the removal of vegetation have on soil ?
Strike441 [17]
Hello!

The removal of vegetation causes the desertification and erosion of soil. The roots of the plants that are inside the soil create a sort of net that prevents the material to be dragged by the water from the rain. They also absorb any excess water that can weaken the soil structure. If vegetation is removed from the soil, the nutrients can be dragged by water currents and slowly the desertification will occur. 

Have a nice day!

An astronaut goes to Mars to do some experiments. Explain why her mass stays the same but her weight changes.
Snowcat [4.5K]
Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there

A car is traveling north with a velocity of 18.1 m/s. Find the velocity of the car after 7.50 seconds if the acceleration is 2.4
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Hello!

Vx = V0x + Ax*t
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4t

Let’s take time as 7.50 seconds:
Vx = 18.1 + 2.4*7.50
Vx = 18.1 + 18 = 36.1 m/s

Then, the final velocity of the car is 36.1 m/s.

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 3 kg ball kicked into the air at a height of 5 meters?
sladkih [1.3K]

formula for gravitational P.E =mgh

Solution:-mass=3kg height=5metre and gravity=9.8 or 10m/sec² so P.E=mgh , 3×9.8×5=147kgm²/sec²
