Answer:
122.5 N/m
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy, if there is no air resistance or frictional forces, the initial elastic potential energy of the spring toy is entirely converted into gravitational potential energy when the toy reaches the highest point.
Therefore, we can write:

where the term on the left is the initial elastic potential energy while the term on the right is the gravitational potential energy, and where
k is the spring constant
x = 0.02 m is the compression of the spring
m = 0.01 kg is the mass of the toy
h = 0.25 m is the height reached by the toy
is the acceleration due to gravity
Solving for k,

Answer:
2.89 x 10^6 N
Explanation:
The explanation is shown in the picture attached
Since the ladder is standing, we know that the coefficient
of friction is at least something. This [gotta be at least this] friction
coefficient can be calculated. As the man begins to climb the ladder, the
friction can even be less than the free-standing friction coefficient. However,
as the man climbs the ladder, more and more friction is required. Since he
eventually slips, we know that friction is less than what's required at the top
of the ladder.
The only "answer" to this problem is putting lower
and upper bounds on the coefficient. For the lower one, find how much friction
the ladder needs to stand by itself. For the most that friction could be, find
what friction is when the man reaches the top of the ladder.
Ff = uN1
Fx = 0 = Ff + N2
Fy = 0 = N1 – 400 – 864
N1 = 1264 N
Torque balance
T = 0 = N2(12)sin(60) – 400(6)cos(60) – 864(7.8)cos(60)
N2 = 439 N
Ff = 439= u N1
U = 440 / 1264 = 0.3481
Answer:
It needs attractive force from the strong nuclear interaction to counter the electrostatic repulsion between the protons.
Explanation:
It has to counter
