Answer:


Explanation:
U = Energy = 76 J
x = Displacement of spring = 0.17 m
k = Spring constant
Energy is given by

Force is given by

The magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform is
.
Now 

Additional energy

The second statement is your answer:
No change in temperatures between seasons. Since tilt is the angle between the direction of positive pole and the normal to the orbital plane, seasons occur due to the tilt of axis. If there were to be no, or zero degree tilt, then there will be no season because of the lack in temperature changes. The amount of sunlight received remains same throughout the year which results in no temperature change
Answer:

Explanation:
We know that from Newton's second law of motion, F=ma hence making acceleration the subject then
where a is acceleration, F is force and m is mass
Also making mass the subject of the formula 
For
and
hence 
Answer:
(a) 0.17 m
(b) 5.003 m
(c) 6.38 ×
N
(d) 7.37 ×
N
Explanation:
(a) The minimum value of
will occur when q3 = 0 m or at origin and q1, q2 are at 0.17 m so the distance between q3 and q1, q2 is 0.17 m, therefore the <em>minimum value of x= 0.17 m</em>.
(b) The maximum value of x will occur when q3 = 5 m because it is said in the question that 5 is the maximum distance travelled by q3. To find the hypotenuse i.e. the distance between q3 and q1,q2, we use Pythagoras theorem.

<em>Hence, the maximum distance is 5.002 m</em>
(c) For minimum magnitude we use the minimum distance calculated in (a)
Minimum Distance = 0.17 m
For electrostatic force= 

×
(d) For maximum magnitude, we use the maximum distance calculated in (b)
Maximum Distance = 5.002 m
Using the formula for electrostatic force again:
F = 
F= 7.37×
