A steel spring had a spring constant of 2 x 10^2 Nm^-1. Calculate the weight of an object which when attached to the unloaded spring produces an extension of 50mm. The elastic limit is not exceeded

You have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. car a weighs 1515 lb and was traveling eastward. car b weighs 1125 lb and was traveling westward at 44.0 mph. the cars locked bumpers and slid eastward with their wheels locked for 22.5 ft before stopping. you have measured the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement to be 0.750 . how fast (in miles per hour) was car a traveling just before the collision? (this problem uses english units because they would be used in a u.s. legal proceeding.)

Atruck driver is attempting to deliver some furniture. first, he travels 8 km east, and then he turns around and travels 3 km west. finally, he turns again and travels 13 km to his destination. what is the drivers total displacement?

The nuclear potential that binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is often approximated by a square well. imagine a proton conned in an innite square well of length 105 nm, a typical nuclear diameter. calculate the wavelength and energy associated with the photon that is emitted when the proton undergoes a transition from the rst excited state (n 2) to the ground state (n 1). in what region of the electromagnetic spectrum does this wavelength belong?
