Answer:
0.1 N
Explanation:
Considering the relationship between force,
spring constant and extension as defined by Hook's law
The force F=xk as from Hooke's law where F is the force of the spring, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression. Substituting 2 N/m for k and 5cm which is equivalent to 0.05 m for extention x then the force will be
F=2*0.05=0.1 N
Sure !
Start with Newton's second law of motion:
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
This formula is so useful, and so easy, that you really
should memorize it.
Now, watch:
The mass of the box is 5.25 kilograms, and the box is
accelerating at the rate of 2.5 m/s² .
What's the net force on the box ?
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
= (5.25 kilograms) x (2.5 m/s²)
Net force = 13.125 newtons .
But hold up, hee haw, whoa ! Wait a second !
Bella is pushing with a force of 15.75 newtons, but the box
is accelerating as if the force on it is only 13.125 newtons.
What happened to the rest of Bella's force ? ?
==> Friction is pushing the box in the opposite direction,
and cancelling some of Bella's force.
How much ?
(Bella's 15.75 newtons) minus (13.125 that the box feels)
= 2.625 newtons backwards, applied by friction.
<h2>Answer:</h2>
The refractive index is 1.66
<h2>Explanation:</h2>
The speed of light in a transparent medium is 0.6 times that of its speed in vacuum
.
Refractive index of medium = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium
So
RI = 1/0.6 = 5/3 or 1.66
Answer:
a) 0.25m
b) 5 m/s
Explanation:
When the spring is compressed both boxes are moving with the same velocity, so applying the principle of linear momentum conservation:
Now applying the principle of energy conservation:
We got that the maximum compression is 0.25m.
