) 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

If a coin is dropped at a relatively low altitude, it's acceleration remains constant. However, if the coin is dropped at a very high altitude, air resistance will have a significant effect. The initial acceleration of the coin will be the greatest. As it falls down, air resistance will counteract the weight of the coin. So, the acceleration will decrease. Although the acceleration decreases, the coin still accelerates, that is why it falls faster. When the air resistance fully counters the weight of the coin, the acceleration will become zero and the coin will fall at a constant speed (terminal velocity). So, the answer should be, The acceleration decreases until it reaches 0. The closest answer is.
a. The acceleration decreases.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

0.0002°, 0.1691°, 0.338°

Explanation:

Difference between the two line = 5.97 * 10-⁸m

d = 1 / N

N = 5.0 * 10³

d = 2.0 * 10⁴m

nL = Nsin¤

For first order

588.995 * 10-⁹ = 2.0 * 10-⁴ sin ¤

Sin¤ = 2.944*10-³

¤ = sin-¹ 0.002944

¤ = 0.1687°

First order ¤ =

Sin-¹(589.592*-⁹ / 2.0 * 10-⁴)

Sin-¹ (0.002947) = 0.1689°

Angular separation = 0.1689 - 0.1687 = 0.0002°

Second order ¤ = sin-¹ [2 (589.59*10-⁹ / 2.0*10-⁴)] = sin-¹ (0.005895)

Second order ¤ = 0.3378°

Angular difference = 0.3378° - 0.1687° = 0.1691°

Third order ¤ = sin-¹ [3(589.59*10-⁹ /2.0*10-⁴] = 0.5067°

Angular difference = 0.5067° - 0.1687° = 0.338°

Which method should be used to determine which type of natural event produces the greatest number of sand dunes?
jeka94

Answer:

Stabilizing dunes involves multiple actions. Planting vegetation reduces the impact of wind and water. Wooden sand fences can help retain sand and other material needed for a healthy sand dune ecosystem. Footpaths protect dunes from damage from foot traffic.

In a semiclassical model of the hydrogen atom, the electron orbits the proton at a distance of 0.053 nm. Part A What is the elec
Bezzdna [24]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

r=0.053 nm=0.053\times 10^{-9} m

1 nm=10^{-9} m

Charge on proton,q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

a.We have to find the electric  potential of the proton at the position of the electron.

We know that the electric potential

V=\frac{kq}{r}

Where k=9\times 10^9

V=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

V=27.17 V

B.Potential energy of electron,U=\frac{kq_e q_p}{r}

Where

q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19} c=Charge on electron

q_p=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C=Charge on proton

Using the formula

U=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.053\times 10^{-9}}

U=-4.35\times 10^{-18} J
