Answer:

2697.75N/m

Explanation:

Step one

This problem bothers on energy stored in a spring.

Step two

Given data

Compression x= 2cm

To meter = 2/100= 0.02m

Mass m= 0.01kg

Height h= 5.5m

K=?

Let us assume g= 9.81m/s²

Step three

According to the principle of conservation of energy

We know that the the energy stored in a spring is

E= 1/2kx²

1/2kx²= mgh

Making k subject of formula we have

kx²= 2mgh

k= 2mgh/x²

k= (2*0.01*9.81*5.5)/0.02²

k= 1.0791/0.0004

k= 2697.75N/m

Hence the spring constant k is 2697.75N/m

A force of 250 N is applied to a hydraulic jack piston that is 0.02 m in diameter. If the piston that supports the load has a di
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

Force exerted by the hydraulic jack piston = F₁ = 250 N

diameter of piston, d₁ = 0.02 m

                                r₁ = 0.01 m

diameter of second piston,  d₂ = 0.15 m

                                r₂ = 0.075 m

mass of the jack to lift = ?

now,

    \dfrac{F_1}{A_1} =\dfrac{F_2}{A_2}

    \dfrac{250}{\pi r_1^2} =\dfrac{F_2}{\pi r_2^2}

    \dfrac{250}{0.01^2} =\dfrac{F_2}{0.075^2}

    F_2= \dfrac{250}{0.01^2}\times {0.075^2}

               F₂ = 14062.5 N

F = m g

m = \dfrac{F}{g}

m = \dfrac{14062.5}{9.8}

m = 1435 Kg

hence, the correct answer is option B

Answer:

W = 506.75 N

Explanation:

tension = 2300 N

Rider is towed at a constant speed means there no net force acting on the rider.

hence taking all the horizontal force and vertical force in consideration.

net horizontal  force:

F cos 30° - T cos 19° = 0

F cos 30° = 2300 × cos 19°

F = 2511.12 N

net vertical force:

F sin 30° - T sin 19°- W = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 19°

W =  2511.12 sin 30° - 2300 sin 19°

W = 506.75 N
