) A physics student wants to measure the stiffness of a spring (force required per cm stretched). He knows that according to Hoo

ke's law, there is a linear relationship between the distance a spring is stretched and the force needed to stretch the spring. He collects some data by measuring the force applied to the spring when he stretches the spring by some amount. The plot and the least squares fit is given below. From the regression model, the intercept was found to be -2.532 and the slope was found to be 25.321. Part i). The stiffness of the spring was predicted to be A. 125.84 B. -2.532 C. -9.961 D. 25.321 E. 50.642 Part ii). Refer to the previous question, the physics student used the regression model to predict that a force of 377.28N would be required to stretch the spring by 15cm. Remarkably, his prediction was horribly wrong. Can you explain why

earnstyle [38]

The correct answer is Option C) Sample C would be best, because the percentage of the energy in an incident wave that remains in a reflected wave from this material is the smallest.


As the coefficient of absorption would define the energy present in the reflected wave, the material C has the highest percentage of absorption i.e. 62% and would be best suitable to make a sound proof room.

An Object moving at a velocity of 30 m/s slows to a stop in 7 seconds. What was its acceleration
ollegr [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.29 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken acting on it can be found by using the formula

acceleration =  \frac{velocity}{time}  \\

From the question

velocity = 30 m/s

time = 7 s

We have

acceleration =  \frac{30}{7}  \\  = 4.285714...

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.29 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

A non-conducting sphere of radius R = 3.0 cm carries a charge Q = 2.0 mC distributed uniformly throughout its volume. At what di
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

r =3 *\sqrt{2} = 4.24 cm

Explanation:

given data

Radius of sphere 3.0 cm

charge Q = 2.0 m C

We know that maximum electric field is given as

E_{MAX}= \frac{KQ}{r^{2}}

electric field inside the sphere can be determine by using below relation

\frac{KQ}{r^{2}}= \frac{1}{2}*\frac{KQ}{R^{2}}

r = \sqrt{2}R

r =3 *\sqrt{2} = 4.24 cm

An air-track cart with mass m1=0.28kg and initial speed v0=0.75m/s collides with and sticks to a second cart that is at rest ini
arsen [322]
Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,

   KE = 0.5mv²

At initial conditions,

  m₁:  KE = 0.5(0.28 kg)(0.75 m/s)² = 0.07875 J

  m₂ : KE = 0.5(0.45 kg)(0 m/s)² = 0 J

Due to the momentum balance,

   m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)(V)

Substituting the known values,

   (0.29 kg)(0.75 m/s) + (0.43 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(V)

   V = 0.2977 m/s

The kinetic energy is,
   KE = (0.5)(0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(0.2977 m/s)²
   KE = 0.03146 J

The difference between the kinetic energies is 0.0473 J.

Consider a system consisting of an ideal gas confined within a container, one wall of which is a movable piston. Energy can be a
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The movable piston

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when a distance is been covered by a force . In this case kinetic energy will be change by an equal amount into work done.

Pushing the piston with a known mass of (m) and an accelarating rate from rest of ( a)   to cover a known distance of (d).The idea of work done is been achieved and can be mathematically represented by:

  • Work done = Force x distance (d)
  • Force = mass (m) x acceleration (a)
