Answer: The end point of a spring oscillates with a period of 2.0 s when a block with mass m is attached to it. When this mass is increased by 2.0 kg, the period is found to be 3.0 s.  Then the mass m is 0.625kg.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the simple harmonic motion.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>
  • A particle is said to execute SHM, if it moves to and fro about the mean position under the action of restoring force.
  • We have the equation of time period of a SHM as,

                                          T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

  • Where, m is the mass of the body and k is the spring constant.
<h3>How to solve the problem?</h3>
  • Given that,

               T_1=2s\\m_1=m\\m_2=m+2kg\\T_2=3s

  • We have to find the value of m,

              T_1=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\T_2=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m+2}{k} } \\\frac{T_1}{T_2} =\sqrt{\frac{m}{m+2} }\\\frac{2}{3} =\sqrt{\frac{m}{m+2} }\\\\

               m=\frac{5}{8} =0.625kg

Thus, we can conclude that, the mass m will be 0.625kg.

Please help!!! A river has a constant current of 3 km per hour. If a motorboat, capable of maintaining a constant speed of 20km
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Construct a vector diagram. It will be a right-angled triangle. One vector (the hypotenuse) represents the heading of the boat, one represents the current and one represents the resultant speed of the boat, which I'll call x. Their magnitudes are 20, 3 and x. Let the required angle = theta. We have: 

<span>theta = arcsin(3/20) = approx. 8.63° </span>

<span>The boat should head against the current in a direction approx. 8.63° to the line connecting the dock with the point opposite, or approx. 81.37° to the shore line. </span>

<span>x = sqrt(20^2 - 3^2) </span>
<span>= sqrt(400 - 9) </span>
<span>= sqrt 391 </span>

<span>The boat's crossing time = </span>
<span>0.5 km/(sqrt 391 km/hr) </span>
<span>= (0.5/sqrt 391) hr </span>
<span>= approx. 0.025 hr </span>
<span>= approx. 91 seconds</span>

Why does it takes a long time to heat a room with a high ceiling?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

High ceilings make a room feel large and open, but they can be difficult to cool and heat. Because hot air rises, the challenge becomes trying to keep the hot air where you want it and preventing if from being wasted where you don't.

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ram
Sonbull [250]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.

Recall from Chapter 1 that a watt is a unit of en- ergy per unit time, and one watt (W) is equal to one joule per second ( J·s–1
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by the equation E_p=h f, where h is the <em>Planck constant</em> and f the frequency of the photon. Thus, N photons of frequency f will give an energy of E_N=N h f.

We also know that frequency and wavelength are related by f=\frac{c}{\lambda}, so we have E_N=\frac{N h c}{\lambda}, where c is the <em>speed of light</em>.

We will want the number of photons, so we can write

N=\frac{\lambda E_N}{h c}

We need to know then how much energy do we have to calculate N. The equation of power is P=E/t, so for the power we have and considering 1 second we can calculate the total energy, and then only consider the 4% of it which will produce light, or better said, the N photons, which means it will be E_N.

Putting this paragraph in equations:

E_N=(\frac{4}{100})E=0.04Pt=(0.04)(100W)(1s)=4J.

And then we can substitute everything in our equation for number of photons, in S.I. and getting the values of constants from tables:

N=\frac{\lambda E_N}{h c}=\frac{(520 \times10^{-9}m) (4J)}{(6.626\times10^{-34}Js) (299792458m/s)}=1.047 \times10^{19}

Suppose a soccer player kicks the ball from a distance 29 m toward the goal. find the initial speed of the ball if it just passe
Rudik [331]

The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by v\sin39^\circ, where v here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving

\left(0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(v\sin39^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm m)

\implies v=11\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}
