4 0

Answer: The correct answer is option (D).

Explanation:

Voltmeter is a device which measures the the voltage applied across the circuit. It is an electrical instrument used to measure the electric potential between the two points in an electric circuit.

Where as:

A switch is the device which used to connect or disconnect the circuit.

Resistor is a device which opposes the flow of current is an electric circuit.

An ammeter the is an electrical device which measures the amount of current in flowing in amperes in an electrical circuit

Hence,the correct answer is option (D).

If you borrow your mom's car to drive 128 m to the store, but you go cruising
valina [46]

Answer:

v = 0.349 m/s

Explanation:

If you borrow your mom's car to drive 128 m to the store, but you go cruising  instead and drive a total distance of 1256 m in 3600s.

We need to find your speed during the  trip. It is equal to the total distance divided by time taken.

He has done cruising  instead and drive a total distance of 1256 m.

So,

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{1256\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\v=0.349\ m/s

So, the speed of the person during the trip is 0.349 m/s.

A(n) 79.5 g ball is dropped from a height of 51.3 cm above a spring of negligible mass. The ball compresses the spring to a maxi
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The spring constant is 4159.02 N/m.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the ball (m) = 79.5 g = 0.0795 kg [1 g = 0.001 kg]

Height of the ball above spring (h) = 51.3 cm = 0.513 m [1 cm = 0.01 m]

Compression in the spring (x) = 4.57537 cm = 0.0457537 m

Total vertical displacement of the ball is equal to the sum of height above spring and compression of the spring. So,

Total vertical height (h+x) = 51.3 cm + 4.57537 cm = 55.87537 cm = 0.5587537 m

Now, as per energy conservation, the total energy of the ball at any position is always a constant.

So, energy possessed by the ball the highest point is equal to the energy possessed by the ball at the lowest point.

Energy at the highest point is due to gravitational potential energy only and energy at the lowest point is due to elastic potential energy only.

So, GPE = EPE

mg(h+x)=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\

Here 'k' is the spring constant.

Now, plug in all the values and solve for 'k'. This gives,

0.795\times 9.8\times 0.5587537=\frac{1}{2}k\times (0.0457537)^2\\\\4.35325\times 2=0.0020934k\\\\k=\frac{8.7065}{0.0020934}=4159.02\ N/m

Therefore, the spring constant is 4159.02 N/m.
