A student in a physics lab is asked to classify two springs. Right away, they notice some differences. The first spring, spring 1, is very easy to compress and pliable. The second spring, spring 2, is stiffer and more difficult to deform. What qualitative statement can you make about their spring constants?

a. No inference can be made, the student needs to take a measurement.
b. The spring constant of spring 1 is larger than spring 2.
c. The spring constant of spring 2 is larger than spring 1.
d. The spring constants are the same because spring 1 has more displacement, while spring 2 requires more force.

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. what best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter? sound travels fastest in ice because energy is easier to transfer when the molecules are close together. sound travels slowest in steam because the sound has to move around the gas molecules that are far apart. sound travels fastest in ice because the temperature of solids is always greater, so the heat transfers the sound energy. sound travels slowest in steam because the pressure is so great the sound cannot travel though the steam particles.

Aproduction line at v. j. sugumaran's machine shop has three stations. the first station can process a unit in 7 minutes. the second station has two identical machines, each of which can process a unit in 16 minutes (each unit only needs to be processed on one of the two machines). the third station can process a unit in 10 minutes. ▼ is the bottleneck station, with a bottleneck time of nothing minutes per unit (enter your response as a whole number).
