Frequency = how many waves you get per sec
Period = how long each wave takes
Period = 1/frequency
Therefore, if the block moves from its position of maximum spring stretch to maximum spring compression in 0.25 s, the time required for a full cycle is twice as much; T = 0.5 s.
The air resistance on the feather would be the correct answer.
-- As she lands on the air mattress, her momentum is (m v)
Momentum = (60 kg) (5 m/s down) = 300 kg-m/s down
-- As she leaves it after the bounce,
Momentum = (60 kg) (1 m/s up) = 60 kg-m/s up
-- The impulse (change in momentum) is
Change = (60 kg-m/s up) - (300 kg-m/s down)
Magnitude of the change = <em>360 km-m/s </em>
The direction of the change is <em>up /\ </em>.
Kinetic energy of golf club = 65J,
kinetic energy supplied to golf ball = 20% of 65 = 0.2 * 65 = 13J,
kinetic energy of ball = [mass * Velocity²]/2,
mass = 46gm = 0.046Kg,
[0.046 * V²]/2 = 13, or 0.046 *V² = 26,
V² = 26/0.046 = 565.22,
V = 23.77 m/sec = initial velocity of golf ball after hitting.
