Inertia- a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged
Answer:
(a) The spring constant is 59.23 N/m
(b) The total energy involved in the motion is 0.06 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass, m = 240 g = 0.24 kg
frequency, f = 2.5 Hz
amplitude of the oscillation, A = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m
The angular speed is calculated as;
ω = 2πf
ω = 2 x π x 2.5
ω = 15.71 rad/s
(a) The spring constant is calculated as;
(b) The total energy involved in the motion;
E = ¹/₂kA²
E = (0.5) x (59.23) x (0.045)²
E = 0.06 J
Answer:
1.It's the world's most famous equation, but what does it really mean? "Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared." On the most basic level, the equation says that energy and mass (matter) are interchangeable; they are different forms of the same thing.
2.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.
3.In nuclear reactions, mass is never conserved—some mass is exchanged for energy and energy for mass. Nuclear reactions take place in an atom's nucleus. In a spontaneous nuclear reaction, such as radioactive decay, mass is "lost" and appears as energy in the form of particles or gamma rays.
4.In a nuclear reaction, mass decreases and energy increases. The sum of mass and energy is always conserved in a nuclear reaction.
5.The process releases energy because the total mass of the resulting single nucleus is less than the mass of the two original nuclei.

A child slides down a hill on a toboggan with acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. if she starts from rest, how far has she traveled in: 2 seconds
Answer:
2.4 m
Explanation:
From the question above,
Applying equation of motion,
s = ut+at²/2....................... Equation 1
Where t = time, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.
make s the subject of the equation,
Given: a = 1.8 m/s², t = 2 seconds, u = 0 m/s (from rest)
Substitute these value into equation 1
s = 0(2)+1.8(2²)/2
s = 1.2(4)/2
s = 2.4 m.
Hence she has traveled 2.4 m
