Answer:

Spring constant, k = 321.42 N/m

Explanation:

Force acting on spring, F = 45 N

Displacement caused due to stretching, x = 0.14 m

Using Hooke's law :

$F=-kx$

Where

k is the spring constant

$k=\dfrac{F}{x}$

$k=\dfrac{45\ N}{0.14\ m}$

k = 321.42 N/m

Hence, this is the required solution.

According to Hooke's law, Force = spring constant x displacement of the spring. Spring constant = Force/displacement in spring = 45/0.14 = 321.42 N/m. Hope this helps!

Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2 ✕ 10-15 m. The electric repulsion force between the

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force between the to protons will be 57.536 N.

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find out the force, in scalar form, will be:

$F \ = \ \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 } \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}$ .

Now, making the substitutions

$d \ = \ 2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m$ ,

$q_1 = q_2 = 1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C$ ,

$\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2}$ ,

we can find:

$F \ = \ 8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{(1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C)^2}{(2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m)^2}$ .

$F \ = 57.536 N$ .

Not so big for everyday life, but enormous for subatomic particles.

Rasek [7]

Answer: True

Explanation:

A photo detector that can respond to the entire rang of visible light can be design, it is true.

Photo detector is a device in an optical receiver which receives optical signals and convert it to electric signal. It is the key device position in front of the optical receiver.

Wat would happen if a feather and a ball were released from the same height at the same time? Gravity Experiments for Kids – Sci

solniwko [45]

Answer:

They would land at the same time

Explanation:

They would land at the same exact time.

As weird, impossible and unbelievable as it appears. When in a vacuum, every weight, body and material when released from the same height would land on the ground at the same time. This also means that like in the question, a feather and a ball would land at the same time. And just for illustrations as well, a feather and a car would land at the same time as well.

h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 where t is the time in seconds. After how many seconds does the arrow reach it maximum height? Round t

laila [671]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The function of height is given in form of time. For maximum height, we need to use the concept of maxima and minima of differentiation.

$h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+112$

Differentiate with respect to t on both the sides, we get

$\frac{dh}{dt}=-32t+64$

For maxima and minima, put the value of dh / dt is equal to zero. we get

- 32 t + 64 = 0

t = 2 second

Thus, the arrow reaches at maximum height after 2 seconds.
