Answer:
0.231 m/s
Explanation:
m = mass attached to the spring = 0.405 kg
k = spring constant of spring = 26.3 N/m
x₀ = initial position = 3.31 cm = 0.0331 m
x = final position = (0.5) x₀ = (0.5) (0.0331) = 0.01655 m
v₀ = initial speed = 0 m/s
v = final speed = ?
Using conservation of energy
Initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy = Final kinetic energy + final spring energy
(0.5) m v₀² + (0.5) k x₀² = (0.5) m v² + (0.5) k x²
m v₀² + k x₀² = m v² + k x²
(0.405) (0)² + (26.3) (0.0331)² = (0.405) v² + (26.3) (0.01655)²
v = 0.231 m/s
The moon<span> is 1/4 the size of </span>Earth<span>, so the </span>moon's<span> gravity is much less than the </span>earth's gravity, 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact. Finally, "weight<span>" is a measure of the gravitational pull between two objects. So of course you would </span>weigh<span> much less on the </span>moon<span>.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
The frequency of a wave can be found using the following formula.
where <em>f</em> is the frequency, <em>v</em> is the velocity/wave speed, and λ is the wavelength.
The wavelength is 10 meters and the velocity is 200 meters per second.
- 1 m/s can also be written as 1 m*s^-1
Therefore:
Substitute the values into the formula.
Divide and note that the meters (m) will cancel each other out.
- 1 s^-1 is equal to Hertz
- Therefore, our answer of 20 s^-1 is equal to 20 Hz
The frequency of the wave is <u>20 Hertz</u>
