Hi there!

Using Hooke's Law:
F = kx

F = Force (N)
k = Spring constant (N/m)
x = displacement from equilibrium

We are given the force and displacement, so solve for 'k':
k = \frac{F}{x}\\
\\
k = \frac{230}{0.4} = \boxed{575 N/m}

A bullet of mass 6.20 10-3 kg, moving at 1320 m/s impacts a tree stump and penetrates 11.00 cm into the wood before coming to re
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

  F = -49.1   10³ N

Explanation:

Let's use the kinematics to find the acceleration the acceleration of the bullet that they tell us is constant

   v_{f}² = v₀² + 2 a x

Since the bullet is at rest, the final speed is zero

    x = 11.00 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.110 m

    0 = v₀² + 2 a x

   a = -v₀² / 2 x

   a = -1320²/(2 0.110)

   a = -7.92 10⁶ m / s²

With Newton's second law we find the force

   F = m a

   F = 6.20 10⁻³ (-7.92 10⁶)

   F = -49.1   10³ N

The sign means that it is the force that the tree exerts to stop the   bullet

If two forces act on an object, what is the relationship between the two forces? (pls explain)
Westkost [7]

Answer:

B. The larger force causes more acceleration than the smaller.

Explanation:

For example, let me use a child and a grown up. The child represents the smaller force while the grown up represents the larger force. If they are pushing the same object of different sides, obviously the side with the grown up will push and move to the side of the child because it is stronger.

A passenger train left station A at 6:00 p.m. Moving with the average speed 45 mph, it arrived at station B at 10:00 p.m. A tran
marishachu [46]
<h2>Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>

Explanation:

Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph

Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train  = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours

Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.

Time taken from station A to station B for transit train  =  4 - 1 = 3 hours

Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train

180 = Average speed of transit train x 3

Average speed of transit train = 60 mph

Average speed of transit train is 60 mph
