Answer:

The extension of a material or a spring is its increase in length when pulled. Hooke’s Law says that the extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied to it. In other words:

Answer:

Mathematically, Hooke's law states that the applied force F equals a constant k times the displacement or change in length x, or F = kx. ... Hooke's law describes the elastic properties of materials only in the range in which the force and displacement are proportional.

A car traveling at 20 m/s when the driver sees a child standing in the road. He takes 0.80 s to react, then steps on the brakes
mr Goodwill [35]

When driver see the child standing on road his speed is 20 m/s

So here at that instant his reaction time is 0.80 s

He will cover a total distance given by product of speed and time

d_1 = v* t

d_1 = 20 * 0.8

d_1 = 16 m

now after this he will apply brakes with acceleration a = 7 m/s^2

so the distance covered before it stop is given by

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 20^2 = 2*(-7)*d_2

d_2 = 28.6 m

so the total distance covered by it

d = d_1 + d_2

d = 16 + 28.6 = 44.6 m

<em>so it will cover a total distance of 44.6 m</em>

There are many ways to lose weight, but a sustainable plan generally involves behavior modification related to diet and exercise
Anna007 [38]

The answer is adequate nutrition, regular physical activity, and practical ways to reduce calories while retaining important nutrients.

Explanation:

Despite that adequate nutrition, regular physical activity, and practical ways to reduce calories while retaining important nutrients is one of the best strategy to reducing weight, most time it is very difficult for those that want to reduce or control their weight to discipline themselves enough to follow these routine. But one an individual that want to loose weight or live a healthy lifestyle is able to follow these procedures he/she will surely loose weight.

A civil engineer must design a wheelchair-accessible ramp next to a set of steps leading up to a building. The height from the g
Westkost [7]

Answer:

A) B = 24 ft

B) H = 24.08 ft

C) M.A = 12.04

D) P = 13.7 lb

Explanation:

A)

Minimum allowable length of base of ramp can be found as follows:

Slope = H/B

where,

Slope = 1/12

H = Height of Ramp = 2 ft

B = Length of Base of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

1/12 = 2 ft/B

B = 2 ft * 12

<u>B = 24 ft</u>

B)

The length of the slope of ramp can be found by using pythagora's theorem:

L = √H² + B²

where,

H = Perpendicular = height = 2 ft

B = Base = Length of Base of Ramp = 24 ft

L = Hypotenuse = Length of Slope of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

H = √[(2 ft)² + (24 ft)²]

<u>H = 24.08 ft</u>

D)

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is given by the following formula:

M.A = L/H

M.A = 24.08 ft/2 ft

<u>M.A = 12.04</u>

D)

Another general formula for Mechanical Advantage is:

M.A = W/P

where,

W = Ideal Load = 165 lb

P = Ideal Effort Force = ?

Therefore,

12.04 = 165 lb/P

P = 165 lb/12.04

<u>P = 13.7 lb</u>
