I.i = j.j = 1
i.j = j.i = 0

(-2i - 5j)(i -4j)
= (-2i).i + (-2i).(-4j) + (-5j).i + (-5j).(-4j)
= -2 + 0 + 0 + 20 = 18

A bungee cord with a spring constant of 800 stretches 6 meters at its greatest displacement. How much elastic potential energy d

Vinil7 [7]

Elastic potential energy is given by formula

$U = \frac{1}{2} kx^2$

here we know that

$k = 800 N/m$

$x = 6 m$

Now using above formula we have

$U = \frac{1}{2}(800)(6^2)$

$U = 14400 J$

So elastic potential energy in the chord is 14400 J

a balloon inflated in a room at 297k has a volume of 4.00 l. the balloon is then heated to a temperature of 331 k. what is the n

Naddika [18.5K]

V2 = 4.4579 L

Since pressure is constant, use Charle’s law.
Charles's law, a statement that the volume occupied by a fixed amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, if the pressure remains constant.

V(olume) 1 = V(olume) 2
————— —————
T(emperature) 1 T(emperature)2

4.00 L = V2
———- ———
297 K 331 K

Cross multiply
(4.00 L x 331 K) = (297 K x V2)
Simplify
1324 L/K = 297 K x V2
Isolate V2 by dividing out 297 K
1324 L/K = V2
————
297 K
(This cancels out the kelvin and leaves you with Liters as the volume measure)

V2 = 4.4579 L

Round to significant digits if required

What changes would result in a decrease in the gravitational force between two objects? Check all that apply.

REY [17]

<em>I'm sorry, it says check all that apply, however there are no choices given. You should edit, and add the multiple choice answers.</em>

My Answer:

Well if the masses of two objects were both decreased, it would result in a decrease in the gravitational force. So I guess the two objects masses would need to be decreased.
