A light spring obeys Hooke's law. The spring's unstretched length is 33.5 cm. One end of the spring is attached to the top of a

doorframe and a weight with mass 7.00 kg is hung from the other end. The final length of the spring is 42.0 cm. What if

Answer:

807.88N/m

Explanation:

<em>The  question has some missing details in it, nevertheless, based on the given data we want to find the spring constant K</em>

Step one

given data

Unstretched length = 33.5 cm

Final length of the spring = 42.0 cm

Δx= 42-33.5

Δx=8.5cm to m= 0.085m

mass m= 7kg

The force on the spring

F=mg

F= 7*9.81

F=68.67N

Step two:

From Hooke's law, we can make k subject of formula and find the spring constant k, we have

F=kΔx---------1

make k subject of the formula

k=F/Δx

k= 68.67/ 0.085

k=807.88N/m

Two identical parallel plate capacitors A and B connected to a battery of V volts w/ the switch S closed. The switch is now open
Basile [38]
The electrostatic energy stored in a capacitor with capacitance C_0, with a voltage difference V applied to it, and without dielectric, is given by
U_0 =  \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2
Now let's assume we fill the space between the two plates of the capacitor with a dielectric with constant k. The new capacitance of the capacitor is
C_k = k C_0
So, the energy stored now is
U_k =  \frac{1}{2}C_k V^2= \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2

Therefore, the ratio between the energies stored in the capacitor before and after the introduction of the dielectric is
\frac{U_k}{U_0}= \frac{ \frac{1}{2}kC_0 V^2 }{ \frac{1}{2} C_0 V^2}=  k

Where do most metamorphic processes take place?
inysia [295]

Answer:

Most metamorphic processes take place deep underground, inside the earth's crust.

Explanation:

During metamorphism, protolith chemistry is mildly changed by increased temperature (heat), a type of pressure called confining pressure, and/or chemically reactive fluids. hope this helps you :)

The former soviet union launched the first artificial earth satellite. What is the name of this satelitte?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Sputnik I.

Explanation:

The Soviet Union (former) launched the first artificial earth satellite called Sputnik I on October 4, 1957.

It had a diameter of 58 cm and it weighed 83.6 kg. It had an orbital period of 5880 seconds around the earth. It orbited the 11 weeks (officially 3 weeks but then, its battery died and it orbited for 8 weeks before falling back into the earth's atmosphere).

the object is in _________ when the vector sum of the force is acting on the object is equal to zero​
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Equilibrium

Explanation:

An object is in equilibrium when the vector sum of the force acting on the object is equal to zero.

A body in equilibrium is at state of rest of rest or in motion with no external force acting on it.

  • The resultant of all forces acting on the body is zero.
  • In this case there is no net force and the body will be at rest.

It decomposes in a first-order reaction with a rate constant of 14 s–1. how long would it take for an initial concentration of 0
VikaD [51]
The rate constant of a reaction can be computed by the ratio of the changes in the concentration and time take taken for it to decompose. Thus, if the rate constant is given to be 14 M/s, we have 

rate = \frac{-(C_{new} - C_{old})}{t}

where C are the concentration values and t is the time taken for it to decompose.

14 = \frac{-(0.02 - 0.06)}{t}
t = 0.003 s

Thus, it will take 0.003 s for it to decompose.
Answer: 0.003 s
