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

Light travels at 3 × 108 m/s, and it takes about 8 min for light from the sun to travel to Earth. Based on this, the order of ma
N76 [4]

Answer:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

Explanation:

The order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth can be calculated as follows:

c = \frac{x}{t}

Where:

c: is the speed of light = 3x10⁸ m/s

t: is the time = 8 min

Hence, the distance is:

x = c*t = 3 \cdot 10^{8} m/s*8 min*\frac{60 s}{1 min} = 1.44 \cdot 10^{11} m = 1.44 \cdot 10^{8} km

Therefore, the order of magnitude of the distance from the sun to Earth is 10⁸ km.

I hope it helps you!

What the 3 law of newton mean
Masteriza [31]
Newtons third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal an opposite reaction. This means that the force on back on something is going to be equal in size and opposite in direction.

During a very quick stop, a car decelerates at 7.6 m/s2. Assume the forward motion of the car corresponds to a positive directio
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

24.57 revolutions

Explanation:

(a) If they do not slip on the pavement, then the angular acceleration is

\alpha = a / r = 7.6 / 0.26 = 29.23 rad/s^2

(b) We can use the following equation of motion to find out the angle traveled by the wheel before coming to rest:

\omega^2 - \omega_0^2 = 2\alpha\Delta \theta

where v = 0 m/s is the final angular velocity of the wheel when it stops, \omega_0 = 95rad/s is the initial angular velocity of the wheel, \alpha = -29.23 rad/s^2 is the deceleration of the wheel, and \Delta \theta is the angle swept in rad, which we care looking for:

0 - 95^2 = 2*29.23\Delta \theta

9025 = 58.46 \Delta \theta

\Delta \theta = 9025 / 58.46 = 154.375 rad

As each revolution equals to 2π, the total revolution it makes before stop is

154.375 / 2π = 24.57 revolutions

The speed of an object and the direction in which it moves constitute a vector quantity known as the velocity. an ostrich is run
Orlov [11]
Velocity of an object is its rate of change of the object's position per interval of time. Velocity is a vector quantity which means that it consists of a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is represented by the speed and the direction is represented by the angle. To determine the velocity components, we use trigonometric functions to determine the angle of the components. For the north component we, use the sine function while, for the west component, we use the cosine function. We calculate as follows:
north velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (sin 54°) = 16.4 m/s
<span>west velocity component = (16.8 m/s) (cos 54°) = 3.49 m/s</span>
