Answer:

4.9 cm

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

F = ke......................... Equation 1

Where F= force, e = extension, k = spring constant.

Note: the Force acting on the the spring is the weight of the mass.

W = mg.

F = mg.................... Equation 2

Where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

mg = ke

make e the subject of the equation

e = mg/k............... Equation 3.

Given: m = 2 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², k = 400 N/m

e = (2×9.8)/400

e = 19.6/400

e = 0.049 m

e = 4.9 cm

Technician A says that the use of some RTV sealants to seal components on an engine can damage the oxygen sensor. Technician B s
netineya [11]

Answer: The correct option is C(both A and B)

Explanation:

In engine chambers, internal combustion of fuel is used to produce mechanical energy.

RTV ( Room Temperature Vulcanising) sealants are silicon products used for the sealing purpose of the engine component. As the name implies once exposed to air, it solidifies. However, it has a negative effect on the oxygen sensor of the engine components by makes a coating over the sensors with the silicone film and, after a time, will affect the operation performed by them. Therefore Technician A is correct.

Technician B is equally correct in that an engine need to be lubricated with oil to help cool the moving part while on. But in order to ensure that oil reaches all movable parts a common method know as heavy-duty reversible spin drills is applied. This method regulates the flow of oil using the engine.

Suppose that we are designing a cardiac pacemaker circuit. The circuit is required to deliver pulses of 1ms duration to the hear
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Minimum capacitance = 200 μF

Explanation:

From image B attached, we can calculate the current flowing through the capacitors.

Thus;

Since V=IR; I = V/R = 5/500 = 0.01 A

Maximum charge in voltage is from 5V to 4.9V. Thus, each capacitor will have 2.5V. Hence, change in voltage(Δv) for each capacitor will be ; Δv = 0.05 V

So minimum capacitance will be determined from;

i(t) = C(dv/dt)

So, C = i(t)(Δt/Δv) = 0.01[0.001/0.05]

C = 0.01 x 0.0002 = 200 x 10^(-6) F = 200 μF

The outlaw that was <span>executed by hanging "in the spring of '25" is identified as the HIGHWAYMAN.

This is one of the characters in the song, "American Remains", sang by The Highwaymen. The group consisted of </span><span>Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson. Other characters in the song were a sailor, a dam builder, and a pilot of a starship.
</span>
This is the first stanza of the song:

"I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride 
<span>With sword and pistol by my side </span>
<span>Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade </span>
<span>Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade </span>
<span>The b*stards hung me in the spring of twenty-five </span>

Anthony and Maelynn are watching a football game outside on a sunny day. Anthony is wearing a black shirt and Maelynn is wearing
melomori [17]

Answer: Anthony will be warmer after the game.

Explanation :

Anthony and Maelynn are watching a football game outside on a sunny day. Anthony is wearing a black shirt and Maelynn is wearing a white shirt. Anthony will be warmer after the game. The black color is a good absorber of radiation and a bad reflector.

The black color absorbs heat until a thermal equilibrium is attained. So, it is advisable to wear cotton clothes in summers not dark colored clothes.

The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.
