Calculate the work done to stretch an elastic string by 40cm if a force of 10N produces an extension of 4cm in it?​

The work done to stretch an elastic string by 40cm is 20 Joules

Hooke law states that the force (F) applied to a spring is directly proportional to the extension (e).

F ∝ e

F = ke

k is the constant

Given that a force of 10N produces an extension of 4cm, hence:

F = ke

10 = k(4)

k = 2.5 N/cm

For an extension of 40cm, the work done is:

Work done = (1/2)ke²

Work done = (1/2)(2.5 N/cm)(40 cm)² = 2000Ncm = 20 Nm

Work done = 20 Joules

The work done to stretch an elastic string by 40cm is 20 Joules

How to determine if a series has a sum?
dybincka [34]
You can use sigma notation to represent an infinite series. For example, ∞∑n=110(12)n−1 is an infinite series. The infinity symbol that placed above the sigma notation indicates that the series is infinite. To find the sum of the above infinite geometric series, first check if the sum exists by using the value of r .

A. (7, -2), (4, -1), (3, 0), (4, 1), (7,2)
Kisachek [45]

Since someone answered wrongly I'll try to give the correct answer without the given xs.  It won't matter.  We're looking for a set of points which satisfy

y = f(x) = x² + 3

A. f(7)=7² + 3 = 52, not -2, so not A.

B. f(-2)=(-2)² + 3 = 7, not 1, so not B

C. f(-2)=7, that's good so far.  

f(-2)=(-1)²+3=1+3=4, good

f(0) = 0²+3 = 3, good

f(1)=1²+3 = 4, good

f(2) = 2²+3 = 7, good

Answer: C

We'll rule out D.  f(1)=1²+3=4, not -2, so not D.

What is the formula to calculate relative distance in algebra one
ANEK [815]
The distance formula is:

d = √[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2]

To use it, you need to have two points on a line that will look like this:
(x1, y1) and (x2 , y2)

Then you just plug it in, and you get your answer.
