Physics
1 answer:
Yuki888 [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  0.8976 seconds

Explanation:

The period of oscillation for the simple harmonic motion can be found using the formula ...

  T = 2π√(d/g)

where d is the displacement of the spring due to the attached weight, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

__

For d = 0.20 meters, the period is ...

  T = 2π√(0.20/9.8) ≈ 0.8976 . . . . seconds

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The formula for the oscillator period is usually seen as ...

  T = 2π√(m/k)

where m is the mass in the system and k is the spring constant. The value of the spring constant is calculated from ...

  k = mg/d

Using that in the formula, we find it simplifies to ...

  T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{\left(\dfrac{mg}{d}\right)}}=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{d}{g}}

The acceleration of a particle traveling along a straight line is
Vlada [557]

Answer:

V= 14.2m/s

Explanation:

We know that acceleration= dv/dt

So 16m/s²=dv/ dt = v dv/ds

So this wil be

Integral of 16m/s² ds [at 2,2]= integral of v dv at[ 0, v]

So 16[s (3/2)/3/2] at ( s,3) = v²/2

At s= 6m

So v² = 64/3( 6^1.5-3^1.5)

= 14.2m/s

Write a simple rule that will tell a person how many water molecule will be lost while putting monosaccharides together to form
belka [17]
<span>For hydrolysis to monosaccharides, one molecule of a disaccharide needs only one molecule of water. C12H22O11 (sucrose) + H2O = C6H12O6 (glucose) + C6H12O6 (fructose) Structurally, a disaccharide molecule may be viewed as a product formed by the condensation of two molecules of monosaccharides with the elimination of a water molecule. So, only one H2O molecule is needed for the reverse process.</span>

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Galileo is one of the most revolutionary scientists in terms of the novelty of his ideas.

He made great advances in the laws of motion and astronomical matters, as well as the creation of telescopes, making the first observations of the Moon, Venus and Jupiter satellites.

He supported Copernicus's idea that the earth revolves around the sun, which was a controversial idea for his time, and the reason why his books were banned because the idea that the earth was not the center of the universe was not yet a well received idea.

For his ideas he was persecuted by the Inquisition and accused of heresy, but he was a proud man and stayed true to his ideas .

Explanation:

A  cataract is defined as a medical condition where a person eyes becomes partially opaque and the person is not bale to see properly.

This is mainly caused due to aging or any injury in the eyes tissue which make up the lens of the eye.

It is the clouding of the lens of the eyes or opacity of the eyes. When treating cataract, in some cases the lens of the eyes are needed to be  removed. This may lead to person becoming far sighted.
