It took 1700 j of work to stretch a spring from its natural length of 2 m to a length of 6 m. find the spring constant k.

Two resistors r1 and r2 may be connected either in series or parallel across an ideal battery with emf ε. we desire the rate of energy dissipation of the parallel combination to be 8.75 times that of the series combination. if r1 = 105 ω, what are the (a) smaller and (b) larger of the two values of r2 that result in that dissipation rate?

Oxygen gas enters well-insulated diffuser at 25 lbf/in.2, 420r, with a velocity of 860 ft/s through a flow area of 1.6 in.^2. at the exit, the flow area is 12 times the inlet area, and the velocity is 19 ft/s. the potential energy change from inlet to exit is negligible. assuming ideal gas behavior for the oxygen and steady-state operation of the diffuser, determine the following: (a) the exit temperature, in r(b) the exit pressure, in lbf/in.^2 (c) the mass flow rate, in lb/s

What was the approximate temperature of the universe at an age of 1015 s?
