The compression curve would be theoretically given for a system of bodies in which the spring applies the force (Although in the same way the following process can be extrapolated to any system, depending on the type of Force to consider) For a spring mass system, the strength is given by Hooke's law as
Where,
K = Spring constant
x = Displacement
If we integrate based on distance we would have
This integral represents the area under the Force Curve based on each distance segment traveled.
This is the same formula that represents the elastic potential energy of a body. Therefore the correct answer is D.
Answer:
Some of the effects of a dam on the environment includes;
1) Increase in the amount of the greenhouse gases
2) Removal of the natural wetland and ocean carbon sinks
3) Disruption of the sources of nutrients in the ecosystem
4) Destruction of habitats
5) Raising of the sea levels and waste waters
6) Displace villages and communities
7) Dams have a potential to create flood risk
8) Dams lead to increased water loss due to evaporation and transpiration
9) Dams causes earthquakes
Explanation:
Dams are a source of renewable energy and are a means to prevent floods, however, dams can also have detrimental impact on the climate and the environment.
Answer:
7
Explanation:
A substance that is neither acidic nor basic is neutral. The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral.
The best answer would be the 4th choice. "They help scientists explain concepts that are difficult to observe, this also covers the first answer which helps the scientist to answer complex questions. A scientific model is not used prove scientific laws as they may not always have all the data to prove so, instead it is used to allow them to explain better concepts revolving around science through research and may also allow them to predict results based on the accumulation of data and analyzing the trend of this resulting information.
Answer:
M_c = 100.8 Nm
Explanation:
Given:
F_a = 2.5 KN
Find:
Determine the moment of this force about C for the two cases shown.
Solution:
- Draw horizontal and vertical vectors at point A.
- Take moments about point C as follows:
M_c = F_a*( 42 / 150 ) *144
M_c = 2.5*( 42 / 150 ) *144
M_c = 100.8 Nm
- We see that the vertical component of force at point A passes through C.
Hence, its moment about C is zero.
