    Calculating Electrical Energy Consumption: Joules/Year vs. Joules/Second"

    Homework Statement The total consumption of electrical energy in Country A is about 1.5 x 1015 Joules/year. What is the average rate of electrical energy consumption in Watts? So, my friend and I were arguing. He said, 1.5 x 1015 is the answer. I said, since watts is equal to Joules /...

    Hooke's Law and force constant

    Homework Statement A force of 720 N stretches a certain spring a distance of 15 cm. What is its force constant? If a 60-kg mass is hung on it, how far will it stretch? Solving for Force Constant given: F (Restoring Force) = 720 N ΔL (spring's elongation) = 15 cm x (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.15 m k...

    Calculating Tension in Ropes with Multiple Blocks and Friction | Homework Help"

    Sorry, I forgot to use another variable. w2x is w2 (cos theta). I forgot how my friend did it but I think his answer to letter A is 8.75(not sure though). His letter B is 6m/s2 (forgot the exact amount. acceleration is 6 point something)

    Another homework of Newton's law of motion

    Sorry, I am so dumb when it comes to physics. Does this mean I'll use F = ma then solve weight from there?
