A. The height above the ground reached by the mass is 2.3 m.

<h3>Height traveled by the mass</h3>

P.E = mgh

where;

  • m is mass
  • h is height reached by the object
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

h = P.E/mg

h = (342)/(15.2 x 9.8)

h = 2.3 m

Thus, the height above the ground reached by the mass is 2.3 m.

What evidence did wegener have to support his theory of plate tectonics?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The continental shelf of the Americas fits closely to Africa and Europe, and other continents showed the same trend. Wegner also analyzed both sides of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils and noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.

A mass of 100 g stretches a spring 5 cm. If the mass is set in motion from its equilibrium position with a downward velocity of
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of spring m=100\ gm

extension in spring x=5\ cm

downward velocity v=70\ cm/s

Position in undamped free vibration is given by

u(t)=A\cos \omega _0t+B\sin \omega _0t

where \omega _0^2=\frac{k}{m}

also \frac{k}{m}=\frac{g}{L}

\omega _0^2=\frac{k}{m}=\frac{9.8}{0.05}

\omega _0=14

u(t)=A\cos(14t)+B\sin(14t)

it is given

u(0)=0

u'(0)=70\ cm/s

substituting values we get

A=0

u(t)=B\sin (14t)

u'(t)=14B\cos (14t)

70=14B

B=\frac{10}{2}

B=5

u(t)=5\sin (14t)

Why is honesty especially important in a scientist when the results of an experiment go against predictions❓❔
kramer
Because other scientists and science in general rely on their collegues' research which in turn allows development of our knowledge on the given subject. The more dont-to-earth reason may be safety. If someone performs an experiment without knowledge of its true results it might result in some danger to the safety of those perforning it without knowledge of all the risks.

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 1.4 kg saturated liquid water at 200oC. Now heat is transferred to the water until t
postnew [5]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of saturated liquid water m=1.4\ kg

at 200^{\circ} specific volume is \nu =0.001157\ m^3\kg(From Table A-4,Saturated water Temperature table)

V_1=m\nu _1

V_1=1.4\times 0.001157

V_1=1.6198\times 10^{-3}\ m^3

Final Volume V_2=4V_1

V_2=4\times (1.6198\times 10^{-3})

V_2=6.4792\times 10^{-3}\ m^3

Specific volume at this stage

\nu _2=\frac{V_2}{m}

\nu _2=\frac{6.4792\times 10^{-3}}{1.4}

\nu _2=0.004628\ m^3/kg

Now we see the value and find the temperature it corresponds to specific volume at vapor stage in the table.

T_2=T_1^{*}+\frac{T_2^{*}-T_1^{*}}{\alpha _2^{*}-\alpha _1^{*}}\times (\alpha _2-\alpha _1^{*})

T_2=370^{\circ}+\frac{373.95-370}{0.003106-0.004953}\times (0.004628-0.004953)

T_2=370.7^{\circ} C
