Answer:

A closed curve consisting of points whose

distances from each of two fixed points (foci) all add up to the same value is an ellipse. The midpoint between the foci is the center. One property of an ellipse is that the reflection off its boundary of a line from one focus will pass through the other.

The distance that a spring will stretch varies directly as the force applied to the spring. A force of 8080 pounds is needed to
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

F₂= 210 pounds

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

Hooke's law

Hooke's law establishes that the elongation (x) of a spring is directly proportional to the magnitude of force (F) applied to it, provided that said spring is not permanently deformed:

F= K*x   Formula (1)

Where;

F  is the magnitude of the force applied to the spring in Newtons (Pounds)

K is the elastic spring constant, which relates force and elongation. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring. (Pounds/inch)

x the elongation of the spring (inch)

Data

The data given is incorrect because if we apply them the answer would be illogical.

The correct data are as follows:

F₁ =80 pounds

x₁= 8 inches

x₂= 21  inches

Problem development

We replace data in formula 1 to calculate  K :

F₁= K*x₁

K=( F₁) / (x₁)

K=( 80) / (8) = 10 pounds/ inche

We apply The formula 1 to calculate  F₂

F₂= K*x₂

F₂= (10)*(21)

F₂= 210 pounds

A satellite’s velocity is 30000m/s. After 60 secs, it’s velocity shows to 15000m/a. What is the satellite’s acceleration?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Acceleration = 9 × 10^5 m/s^2 ( deceleration )

Explanation:

From the first equation of motion:

V = u + at

15000 = 30000 + 60a

a = ( 15000-30000)/60

a = 9 × 10^5 m/s^2
