Let say for every 5 s of time interval the speed will remain constant
so it is given as
v(mi/h) 16 21 23 26 33 30 28
now we have to convert the speed into ft/s as it is given that 1 mi/h = 5280/3600 ft/s
so here we will have
v(ft/s) 23.5 30.8 33.73 38.13 48.4 44 41.1
now for each interval of 5 s we will have to find the distance cover for above interval of time
so here it will cover 1298.1 ft distance in 30 s interval of time
Answer:
Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.
Explanation:
Let the spring's displacement be x.
Given the following data;
Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg
Number of shrews, n = 49
Spring constant, k = 24 N/m
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².
To find the spring's displacement;
At equilibrium position:
Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0
But, Felastic = -kx
Total mass, Mt = nm
Fg = -Mt = -nmg
-kx -nmg = 0
Rearranging, we have;
kx = -nmg
Making x the subject of formula, we have;
Substituting into the formula, we have;
x = -0.04 m
Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.
