An 80 N force causes a spring to compress 0.15 m. What is the spring constant? What is the potential energy of the spring?

Physics

Anni [7]3 years ago
3 0
Force = -kx
80N=0.15m * -k
K=-80/0.15=533.333. Spring constant
Energy=1/2kx^2
1/2*(-80/0.15)*80^2=Energy

How is gravity simulated on the hermes spacecraft?
gulaghasi [49]

Hermes has a rotating wheel, or centrifuge, to provide artificial gravity for the crew. Spaceships in “2001: A Space Odyssey” and “Mission to Mars” were similarly equipped. Although it is not shown in the film, the astronauts would have used a Mars descent vehicle (MDV) to get down from Hermes to the surface.

4.5 cm3 of water is boiled at atmospheric pressure to become 4048.3 cm3 of steam, also at atmospheric pressure. Calculate the wo
Mrrafil [7]

1. 408.4 J

The work done by a gas is given by:

W=p\Delta V

where

p is the gas pressure

\Delta V is the change in volume of the gas

In this problem,

p=1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa (atmospheric pressure)

\Delta V=4048.3 cm^3 - 4.5 cm^3 =4043.8 cm^3 = 4043.8 \cdot 10^{-6}m^3 is the change in volume

So, the work done is

W=(1.01\cdot 10^5 Pa)(4043.8 \cdot 10^{-6}m^3)=408.4 J

2. 10170 J

The amount of heat added to the water to completely boil it is equal to the latent heat of vaporization:

Q = m \lambda_v

where

m is the mass of the water

\lambda_v = 2.26\cdot 10^6 J/kg is the specific latent heat of vaporization

The initial volume of water is

V_i = 4.5 cm^3 = 4.5\cdot 10^{-6}m^3

and the water density is

\rho = 1000 kg/m^3

So the water mass is

m=\rho V_i = (1000 kg/m^3)(4.5\cdot 10^{-6}m^3)=4.5\cdot 10^{-3}kg

So, the amount of heat added to the water is

Q=(4.5\cdot 10^{-3}kg)(2.26\cdot 10^6 J/kg)=10,170 J

What is the story of coal​
Alika [10]

Explanation:

Coal is a fossil fuel and is the altered remains of prehistoric vegetation. The energy we get from coal today comes from the energy that plants absorbed from the sun millions of years ago. In the burning process of coal, carbon dioxide (CO2) is emitted. Humans expel CO2, and plants utilize it every single day. Carbon is a building block for all forms of life and is used in a lot of everyday products.

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams. Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements, chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen.Coal is formed when dead plant matter decays into peat and is converted into coal by the heat and pressure of deep burial over millions of years. Vast deposits of coal originate in former wetlands—called coal forests—that covered much of the Earth's tropical land areas during the late Carboniferous (Pennsylvanian) and Permian times. However, many significant coal deposits are younger than this and originate from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras.
