1. Spring force is proportional to stretch distance, F=kd. Do you expect doubling the stretch distance double the force?

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The spring force is given as:

F = kd

F is the spring force

K is the spring constant

d is the magnitude of the stretch

Since k is a constant, therefore, doubling the stretch distance will double the force.

Both stretch distance and force applied can be said to be directly proportional to one another.

John ( body mass= 65 kg) is taking off for a long jump . Horizontal accerleration ax is 5m/s^2 and vertical acceleration ay is 0

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

(a) The horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) The vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

(c) The resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Explanation:

Given

John mass , m = 65 kg

Horizontal acceleration , $a_x= 5.0 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Vertical acceleration , $a_y=0.9 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

(a) Using Newton's 2nd law in horizontal direction

$F_{g,x}=ma_x$

=> $F_{g,x}=65\times 5\, N=325\, N$

Thus the horizontal ground reaction force $F_{g,x}=325\, N$

(b) Using Newton's 2nd law in vertical direction

$F_{g,y}-mg=ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=mg+ma_y$

=> $F_{g,y}=65\times (9.81+0.9)\, N=696\, N$

Thus the vertical ground reaction force $F_{g,y}=696\, N$

$F_g=(F_{g,x}^{2}+F_{g,y}^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

=> $F_g=(325^{2}+696^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}\, N=768\, N$

=> $F_g=768\, N$

Thus the resultant ground reaction force $F_g=768\, N$

Which of the following statements about language is true?

ohaa [14]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Language is defined as a medium through which a person can deliver its thoughts, ideas, or perceptions to one or more individuals.

For example, Leslie is feeling sad and that is why she is crying. Therefore, listening a cry sound her friend sitting in the next room came immediately to console her.

Hence, sound of crying is also a sign of language that tells Leslie is sad about something.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement languages use spoken sounds, written words, and signs to represent ideas and events, is true about language.

If a force of 19 N is applied to a crate to push it 23 m, how much work is done on the crate by the force?

swat32

Answer:

437 Joules

Explanation:

Use the formula for work directly

(work) = (force) x (displacement)

to get

(work) = (19 N) x (23 m) = 437 Joules
