Answer:
a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is
0.18 J
b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J
Explanation:
Hi there!
a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:
EPE = 1/2 · k · x²
Where:
k = spring constant.
x = stretched lenght.
Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).
First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:
4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m
EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²
EPE = 0.18 J
When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J
b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:
EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²
EPE = 0.72 J
When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J
The bear fell because it slides to the surface of ice due to lack of friction.
One of these theories is that friction<span> causes the liquid layer of water to form on </span>ice<span>. </span>Friction<span> is the force that generates heat whenever two objects slide against each other. If you rub your hands together, you can feel them heat up. That's </span>friction<span> at work. When a </span>skate<span> moves over the surface of </span>ice, the friction<span> between the </span>skate<span> and the </span>ice<span> generates heat that melts the </span>outermost<span> layer of </span>ice<span>.</span>
Answer:
0.775
Explanation:
The weight of an object on a planet is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the planet on the object:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the mass of the planet
m is the mass of the object
R is the radius of the planet
For planet A, the weight of the object is
For planet B,
We also know that the weight of the object on the two planets is the same, so
So we can write
We also know that the mass of planet A is only sixty percent that of planet B, so
Substituting,
Now we can elimanate G, MB and m from the equation, and we get
So the ratio between the radii of the two planets is
Answer:
0.2cm towards the retina.
Explanation:
the focal length of the frog eye is
(1/f) = (1/10) + (1/0.8)
f = 0.74cm
Since the distance of the object is 15cm Hence
(1/0.74) = (1/15) + (1/V)
V = 0.78cm
Therefore the distance the retina is to move is
0.78cm - 0.8cm = 0.02cm towards the retina.
I think it might be heat energy. light transforms into heat energy
