A square with a side length of 4 would have an area of 16 because 4x4 equals 16.
m₁ = mass hanged initially = 0.2 kg
x₁ = initial stretch in the spring = 8 cm = 0.08 m
k = spring constant of the spring
the weight of the mass hanged is balanced by the spring force by the spring hence
Spring force = weight of mass hanged
k x₁ = m₁ g
k (0.08) = (0.2) (9.8)
k = 24.5 N/m
m₂ = mass hanged later = 0.5 kg
x₂ = final stretch in the spring = ?
k = spring constant of the spring = 24.5 N/m
the weight of the mass hanged is balanced by the spring force by the spring hence
Spring force = weight of mass hanged
k x₂ = m₂ g
(24.5) x₂ = (0.5) (9.8)
x₂ = 0.2 m = 20 cm
It is important so you can be more fluent or faster in knowing bigger problems
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
- How much was the decrease from Figure A to Figure B (let x be the decrease): 45x = 27
- Divide each by 45 to cancel out the 45 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 3/5
- To find x, we would normally multiply x by 3/5, but because we don't have x, we just DIVIDE 18 by 3/5: 18 ÷ 3/5 = 30
- So, x = 30
I hope this helps!
