Answer:
63 miles per hour
Explanation:
you just divide miles and hours to get your average speed
Answer:
The force becomes 16 times what it is now.
Explanation:
The formula for gravitational force is
F = G * m1 * m2 / r^2
When you do what you have described, you are setting a stage that not even the USS Enterprise (Star Trek) can get out of. The increase is huge.
If you double m1 and m2 and don't do anything to r, you've already increased the force by 4 times. (2m1 * 2m2 = 4 * m1 * m2)
But you are not finished. If you 1/2 the distance, you are again increasing the Force by 4 times. 1 / (2r) ^2 = 1/ 4* r^2
Because this is in the denominator, the 1/4 is going to flip to the numerator.
So the total increase is going to be 4 * (4 * m1 * m2) = 16 * m1 * m2.
Think about what that means. If you were out golfing, your drives would be roughly 1/16 times as far as they are now. Also you would be lugging around 16 times your weight around the golf course. My feeling is that you would never finish 5 holes at that rate.

Answer:
a)W=8.333lbf.ft
b)W=0.0107 Btu.
Explanation:
<u>Complete question</u>
The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.
Solution
Preload = F₀=0 lbf
Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in
Initial length of spring x₁=0
Final length of spring x₂= 1 in
At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;
F= F₀× kx where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in
100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft
work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft
The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;
1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft
?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply
(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.
