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

The half-meter rule (easy math) is 0.5 meters or 50 centimeters since a meter is 1 meters long, which is equivalent to 100 centimeters. Therefore, we shall apply the 50 cm rule.

A 50 cm rule's center of mass is now 25 cm away.

Additionally, according to the data, the object is pivoted at 15 cm, while the 40 g object is hung at 2 cm from the rule's beginning. Using a straightforward formula, we can compare the two situations: the distance from the pivot to the center of the mass times the mass of the 40 g object divided by 2 cm must equal the distance from the pivot to the center of the mass times mass of the 10 x g object

The result of the straightforward computation must be 52g.

Most simplified version:

the center of mass of the rule is at the 25 cm mark

⇒ 40 g * (15 cm - 2 cm)

⇒ = M * (25 cm - 15 cm)

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl
muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type

If the answer to your calculation has units of kg.m^2/s^2. What type of quantity could it be?
Juliette [100K]

The quantity can be work or kinetic energy or potential energy. Work is same as the energy.

Work done can be described as energy transferred from and object when a force is applied along a displacement. That is work done is the product of force in the direction of the displacement and the magnitude of the displacement.

Mathematically it can be represented as,

W = F x d

where,

W ⇒ work done

F ⇒ force acting along the displacement

d ⇒ magnitude of displacement

We know,

force = mass x acceleration

∴ the unit of force is kgms⁻²

The unit of work done will be kgms⁻² x m

That is kgm²s⁻²

where m is the unit of displacement that is meter (m)

Hence kgm²s⁻² is the unit for work or energy
