Hooke's Law

F = k. Δx

Δx = 30 cm = 0.3 m

200 = k . 0.3

$\tt k =\dfrac{200}{0.3}= 666.6$

the spring stretch for 100 N:

$\tt \Delta x=\dfrac{100}{666.6}=0.15=15\:cm$

Answer:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

The mass of a spacecraft is about 435 kg . An engine designed to increase the speed of the spacecraft while in outer space provi

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Δ v = 125 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of space craft = 435 Kg

thrust = 0.09 N

time = 1 week

= 7 x 24 x 60 x 60 s

change in speed of craft = ?

Assuming no external force is exerted on the space craft

now,

$T= m_s a$

$a=\dfrac{T}{m_s}$

$a =\dfrac{0.09}{435}$

a = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

using equation of motion

Δ v = a t

Δ v = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ x 7 x 24 x 60 x 60

Δ v = 125 m/s

If each of the three rotor helicopter blades is 3.50 m long and has a mass of 120 kg , calculate the moment of inertia of the th

devlian [24]

Answer:

1470kgm²

Explanation:

The formula for expressing the moment of inertial is expressed as;

I = 1/3mr²

m is the mass of the body

r is the radius

Since there are three rotor blades, the moment of inertia will be;

I = 3(1/3mr²)

I = mr²

Given

m = 120kg

r = 3.50m

Required

Moment of inertia

Substitute the given values and get I

I = 120(3.50)²

I = 120(12.25)

I = 1470kgm²

Hence the moment of inertial of the three rotor blades about the axis of rotation is 1470kgm²

Strontium−90 is one of the products of the fission of uranium−235. This strontium isotope is radioactive, with a half-life of 28

Ludmilka [50]

Answer : The time passed in years is 20.7 years.

Explanation :

Half-life = 28.1 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

$k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac{0.693}{28.1\text{ years}}$

$k=2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}$

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = $2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}$

t = time passed by the sample = ?

a = initial amount of the reactant = 1.00 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 0.600 g

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

$t=\frac{2.303}{2.47\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{1.00}{0.600}$

$t=20.7\text{ years}$

Therefore, the time passed in years is 20.7 years.
