An ice cube would transfer heat to another object whose temperature
is lower than zero°C (32°F).
A block of "dry ice" is sitting there at a temperature of -78°C (-109°F).
An ice cube helps to melt dry ice nice and fast.
If you could find a block of solid nitrogen, its temperature would be
63K (-210°C, -346°F). An ice cube would transfer heat to that baby
so fast that it would instantly boil.
Answer:
k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m
Explanation:
First we need to find the force applied by safe pn the spring:
F = Weight of Safe
F = mg
where,
F = Force Applied by the safe on the spring = ?
m = mass of safe = 800 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
F = (800 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
F = 7840 N
Now, using Hooke's Law:
F = kΔx
where,
K = Spring Constant = ?
Δx = compression = 46 cm = 0.46 m
Therefore,
7840 N = k (0.46 m)
k = 7840 N/0.46 m
<u>k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m</u>
You've given the answer, right there in your question.
The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.
We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about
(1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times
the Earth's radius, so the height is about 910 miles above the surface.
