Answer:

C) 388.07

Explanation:

It is a spring therefore, there must be Elastic potential energy. Now what is the formula for elastic potential energy? It is 1/2 *k *x^2

K=spring constant

x= displacement  

1/2=.5 (hate fractions)

Now, Displacement simply means (how much was it moved?) So, that means subtract.

87-20= 67   x=67

Next, do x^2 (so you don't make a mistake by squaring everything :)  )

67*67=4,489

NOW, do....

.5*1729*4,489=3,880,740.5

Now convert to Joules, I just did 3,880,740.5  / 10^3 = 3880.745

round to 3880.7 J

A small metal cube measures 2.5 cm on one side. The mass of the cube is 1129.56 g. What is the density of the cube?
attashe74 [19]

-- volume = (length)(width)(height)

-- Since the cube is a cube, its three dimensions are all the same number.

Volume = (2.5cm)(2.5cm)(2.5cm)

Volume = 15.625 cubic cm

-- density = (mass) / (volume)

Density = (1129.56g) / (15.625cm^3)

Density = 72.3 g/cm^3

(roughly 3.2 TIMES the density of the most dense naturally occurring substance on Earth)

A quick USB charger claims its output current is 1.97Amp. We know that the standard USB output voltage is 5V. What is the output
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Output power of the charger is 9.85 watts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Output current of the USB charger, I = 1.97 A

The standard USB output voltage, V = 5 V

We need to find the output power of the charger. It can be determined using the following formula as :

P = V × I

P=5\ V\times 1.97\ A

P = 9.85 watts

The output power of the charger is 9.85 watts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a boat heading due east at 15 miles/hour. The water's current is moving at 7.1 miles/hour at 45º south of east. Drag ve
givi [52]

If a boat is going East at 15mph and there is a water current going southeast at 45° then the boat is being drifted southward.  So since the current is going at an angle then it has a x and y component.  So Rx refers to the x-component force of the current and Ry refers to the y-component of the current, and |R| refers to the magnitude of these forces.
