Answer:
b. 0.45 meters
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Spring constant, k = 330 N/m
Force = 150 N
To find the extension of the spring;
Mathematically, the force exerted on a spring is given by the formula;
Force = spring constant * extension
Substituting into the formula, we have;
150 = 330 * extension
Extension, e = 150/330
Extension, e = 0.45 meters
Answer:
The angular velocity is slowing down.
Explanation:
- By convention, if a rigid body is rotating clockwise, the angular velocity is negative.
- If the angular acceleration has a positive sign, since the angular acceleration and the angular velocity have opposite signs, this means that the angular velocity is slowing down.
Let height of twin falls = x
height of seven falls = 2.5x
x + 2.5x = 420
3.5x = 420
x = 420/3.5 = 120
so twin falls = x = 120 ft
seven falls = 2.5x = 300 ft
