force of 10 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work W is done in stretching it
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Given force=10lb

L1=4in converting to feet

But 0.08333ft= 1 inch

Then 4 inch is 0.3332

6inch is 0.49998

But hookes law states

F=Kx where F is force,K is the force constant ,X

K=F/X=10/0.3333=30N/m

Integrating this

Integral of 30x with limit 0.333 to 0.5

F=30x^2/2=15x^2substing the limit

F=(15(0.5^2-0.33^2)=2.08ft-lb

Does the theory of relativity show that Newtonian mechanics is wrong?
valina [46]

Answer:

Einstein extended the rules of Newton for high speeds. For applications of mechanics at low speeds, Newtonian ideas are almost equal to reality. That is the reason we use Newtonian mechanics in practice at low speeds.

Explanation:

<em>But on a conceptual level, Einstein did prove Newtonian ideas quite wrong in some cases, e.g. the relativity of simultaneity. But again, in calculations, Newtonian ideas give pretty close to correct answer in low-speed regimes. So, the numerical validity of Newtonian laws in those regimes is something that no one can ever prove completely wrong - because they have been proven correct experimentally to a good approximation.</em>
