11 An unstretched spring is 12,0 cm long. A load of 5.0N stretches it to 15.0cm. How long will it be under a load

Answer: Approximately 22 cm

=========================================================

Explanation:

The unstretched spring is 12.0 cm long. When adding a load of 5.0 N, it stretches to 15.0 cm. This is a displacement of 15.0 - 12.0 = 3.0 cm, which is the amount the spring is stretched.

Convert this displacement to meters (so that it fits with the meters unit buried in Newtons).

3.0 cm = (3.0)/100 = 0.03 m

Apply Hooke's Law to find the spring constant k

F = -kx

5.0 = -k*(0.03)

k = -(5.0)/(0.03)

k = -166.667 approximately

Now we must find the displacement x when F = 15 newtons

F = -kx

-kx = F

x = F/(-k)

x = -F/k

x = -15/(-166.667)

x = 0.089 approximately

x = 0.1

The displacement to one decimal place is about 0.1 meters, which converts to 100*0.1 = 10 cm

So the spring will be stretched to about 12cm+10cm = 22 cm

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) maximum height of a projectile = u sin^2θ/2g

H= 600 × (sin 30)^2/2 × 10

H= 7.5 m

b) Time of flight

t= 2u sinθ/g

t= 2 × 600 sin 30/10

t= 60 seconds

Range

R= u^2sin2θ/g

R= (600)^2 × sin2(30)/10

R= 31.2 m

An object starts from rest, and accelerates at 2m/s2 for 10s. How far has it gone in that time
blagie [28]

Answer:

100m

Explanation:

s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

u=0;t=10sec;a=2m/s²

s = 0(10) +  \frac{1}{2}(2 \times  {10}^{2} )

s=10²;100m

You need to put a metal rod
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
-- Put the rod into the freezer for a while.  As it cools,
it contracts (gets smaller) slightly.

-- Put the cylinder into hot hot water for a while.  As it heats,
it expands (gets bigger) slightly.

-- Bring the rod and the cylinder togther quickly, before the
rod has a chance to warm up or the cylinder has a chance
to cool off.

-- I bet it'll fit now.

-- But be careful . . . get the rod exactly where you want it as fast
as you can.  Once both pieces come back to the same temperature,
and the rod expands a little and the cylinder contracts a little, the fit
will be so tight that you'll probably never get them apart again, or even
move the rod.

On January 22, 1943, the temperature in Spearfish, South Dakota, rose from -4.0∘F∘F to 45.0∘F∘F in just 2 minutes. What was the
Margaret [11]

Answer:

The change in temperature, \Delta T=9.45^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

The temperature in Spearfish, South Dakota, rose from -4^{\circ} F\ to\ 45^{\circ} F in just 2 minutes. We need to find the temperature change in Celsius degrees. Change in temperature is given by final temperature minus initial temperature such that,

\Delta T=T_f-T_i\\\\\Delta T=45-(-4)\\\\\Delta T=49^{\circ}F

The relation between degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit is given by :

F=1.8C+32

Here, F = 49 degrees

49=1.8C+32\\\\\Delta T=9.45^{\circ} C

So, the change in temperature is 9.45 degree Celsius. Hence, this is the required solution.

Anyone please helps me with this question... I'm stuck..
Zolol [24]
Highest fluid potential energy: answer A
Because the fluid is pushed upwards and potential energy is function of height. Since point A is the highest, there is the highest potential energy.

highest fluid pressure: answer C
This is because it is at the bottom where you have a hydrostatic pressure component

increasing fluid speed: answer B
This is because the section of the pipe is smaller and in order to have the same fluid flow rate the speed must increase
