-- it's moving faster than it was before
or
-- it's moving slower than it was before
or
-- it's moving in a different direction that it was before.

A 3-kg object is attached to a spring and moving in simple harmonic motion. Its angular frequency is 20 rads/sec. When the mass-
Trava [24]

Answer:19.5 J

Explanation:

Given

mass of block=3 kg

angular frequency=20 rad/sec

spring constant k=\omega _n^2m=1200 N/m

we know total energy remain conserved

E_T at x=0.1 m

E_T=E_P+E_K

Where E_K=kinetic energy

E_P=potential Energy

E_P=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

E_P=600\times 0.01=6 J

E_K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

E_K=\frac{1}{2}\times 3\times 3^2=13.5 J

E_T=13.5+6=19.5 J

When mass reaches amplitude its velocity becomes zero

there is only potential energy which is equal to Total energy

E_T=E_P=19.5 J

Which best describes a difference between electric current and static electricity?
NeTakaya

Perhaps one of the most useful yet taken-for-granted accomplishments of the recent centuries is the development of electric circuits. The flow of charge through wires allows us to cook our food, light our homes, air-condition our work and living space, entertain us with movies and music and even allows us to drive to work or school safely. In this unit of The Physics Classroom, we will explore the reasons for why charge flows through wires of electric circuits and the variables that affect the rate at which it flows. The means by which moving charge delivers electrical energy to appliances in order to operate them will be discussed in detail.

One of the fundamental principles that must be understood in order to grasp electric circuits pertains to the concept of how an electric field can influence charge within a circuit as it moves from one location to another. The concept of electric field was first introduced in the unit on Static Electricity. In that unit, electric force was described as a non-contact force. A charged balloon can have an attractive effect upon an oppositely charged balloon even when they are not in contact. The electric force acts over the distance separating the two objects. Electric force is an action-at-a-distance force.

Action-at-a-distance forces are sometimes referred to as field forces. The concept of a field force is utilized by scientists to explain this rather unusual force phenomenon that occurs in the absence of physical contact. The space surrounding a charged object is affected by the presence of the charge; an electric field is established in that space. A charged object creates an electric field - an alteration of the space or field in the region that surrounds it. Other charges in that field would feel the unusual alteration of the space. Whether a charged object enters that space or not, the electric field exists. Space is altered by the presence of a charged object; other objects in that space experience the strange and mysterious qualities of the space. As another charged object enters the space and moves deeper and deeper into the

The average period of pendulum clock is found to be 1.2s at sea level. The period of the same pendulum on a mountain top is foun
Kipish [7]

Answer:

g' = 10.12m/s^2

Explanation:

In order to calculate the acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain, you first calculate the length of the pendulum, by using the information about the period at the sea level.

You use the following formula:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}         (1)

l: length of the pendulum = ?

g: acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.79m/s^2

T: period of the pendulum at sea level = 1.2s

You solve for l in the equation (1):

l=\frac{gT^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\l=\frac{(9.79m/s^2)(1.2s)^2}{4\pi^2}=0.35m

Next, you use the information about the length of the pendulum and the period at the top of the mountain, to calculate the acceleration due to gravity in such a place:

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g'}}\\\\g'=\frac{4\pi^2l}{T'^2}

g': acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain

T': new period of the pendulum

g'=\frac{4\pi^2(0.35m)}{(1.18s)^2}=10.12\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration due to gravity at the top of the mountain is 10.12m/s^2
