A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately $25\; {\rm N}$ (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

When the $6.0\; {\rm cm}$ -spring in this question is stretched to $10\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement is $x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ .
Likewise, if this spring is stretched to $20\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement would be $(20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm})$ .

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of $F_{\text{a}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{a}}$ , while a force of $F_{\text{b}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{b}}$ , then:

$\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}$ .

In this question, it is given that a force of $F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N}$ would stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ . Thus, the force $F_{\text{b}}$ required to stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ would satisfy:

$\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}$ .

Rearrange and solve for $F_{\text{b}}$ :

$\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .

lilavasa [31]

Answer: Analog transfer information quicker, example electromagnetic waves which are used in our modern day phones.

Explanation: Digital signals are a more reliable form of transmitting information because an error in the amplitude or frequency value would have to be very large in order to cause a jump to a different value. Signals are composed of infinite possible values. Signals are composed of only two possible values: 0 or 1.

vagabundo [1.1K]

The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together.
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.

What is the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke?

balu736 [363]

I believe the answer is D, Heat exhaustion involves a lack of sweating, while heat stroke involves extreme sweating. Also just to add the on if heat exhaustion is left untreated then it could turn into a heat stroke.
