The work W needed to stretch/compress a spring from rest by a distance x is

W = 1/2 kx²

where k is the spring constant.

This means the work needed to change the length of this spring by 10 cm = 0.01 m is

W = 1/2 (200 N/m) (0.01 m)² = 0.01 J

and by 15 cm = 0.015 m is

W' = 1/2 (200 N/m) (0.015 m)² = 0.0225 J

Then the total work performed on the spring by stretching from 10 cm to 15 cm is

∆W = W' - W = 0.0225 J - 0.01 J = 0.0125 J

Answer:

c) 8.3 x 10^24 molecules

Explanation:

First of all, we convert the volume of the glass of water from mL to cm^3:

V=250 mL = 250 cm^3

The relationship between mass and volume is:

d=\frac{M}{V}

where

d=1.00 g/cm^3 is the density of water

M is the total mass of the glass of water

V=250 cm^3 is the volume of the water in the glass

Solving for M,

M=dV=(1.00)(250)=250 g = 0.250 kg

Now we know that the mass of a single molecule of water is

m=3.0\cdot 10^{-26}kg

The total mass of the water in the glass can be written as

M=Nm

where

N is the number of molecules in the glass of water

Solving for N, we find:

N=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{0.250}{3.0\cdot 10^{-26}}=8.3\cdot 10^{24}

Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) frombehind while going 35 m/s. Immediately after the collision, car Bmove
kolezko [41]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy lost in the collision in term of the initial energy is 0.49.

Explanation:

As the final and initial velocities are known it is possible then the kinetic energy is possible to calculate for each instant.

By definition, the kinetic energy is:

k = 0.5*mV^2

Expressing the initial and final kinetic energy for cars A and B:

ki=0.5*maVa_{i}^2+0.5*mbVb_{i}^2

kf=0.5*maVa_{f}^2+0.5*mbVb_{f}^2

Since the masses are equals:

m=ma=mb

For the known velocities, the kinetics energies result:

ki=0.5*mVa_{i}^2

ki=0.5*m(35 m/s)^2=612.5m^2/s^2*m

kf=0.5*mbVb_{f}^2

kf=0.5*m(25 m/s)^2=312.5m^2/s^2*m

The lost energy in the collision is the difference between the initial and final kinectic energies:

kl=ki-kf

kl = 612.5m^2/s^2*m-312.5 m^2/s^2*m=300 m^2/s^2*m

Finally the relation between the lost and the initial kinetic energy:

kl/ki = 300 m^2/s^2 * m / 612.5 m^2/s^2 * m

kl/ki = 24/49=0.49

What happens at the end of silence of the lambs?
sukhopar [10]
The Silence of the Lambs ends when Hannibal Lecter, from a payphone in the tropics, congratulates FBI Academy graduate Clarice Starling and gently warns her not to hunt him, ending the call by saying he had to go because he was having a friend for dinner, as he watched his hospital tormenter, Dr. Chilton, disembark from a plane. While that nervous laugh allowed movie goers to summon the courage to leave the theater and run to their cars, the original ending scripted by Tally gave no such quarter. When Lecter speaks to Starling, he compliments her outfit, which makes her realize he had watched from a distance. In the original ending, Lecter is cutting orange segments with a small paring knife, while he speaks to Clarice. As he hangs up the phone, the camera shot widens. We discover that he”s at a desk in a book lined office. There is the body of a bodyguard on the floor, and then we see Lecter is not alone. Chilton is trussed up in a chair across from him, the same method of restraints the doctor used on Lecter earlier in the movie. Lecter rises, slowly, a dreamy gleam in his eye, as he approaches his terrified victim, paring knife in hand. “Shall we begin?”
