Answer:

126.33 N/m

Explanation:

Angular frquency is given by

$f=\frac {2\pi}{t}$

Wheret is period of wave and f is angular frequency.

Given period of 0.5 s then

$w=\frac {2\pi}{0.5}=4\pi rad/s\approx 12.57 rad/s$

Angular frequency is also given by

$w=\sqrt{\frac {k}{m}}$

Making k the subject then $k=mw^{2}$

Where k is spring constant, m is mass

Substituting m with 0.8 then

$k=0.8\times (4\pi)^{2}$

K=126.330936333944 N/m

Rounded off as 126.33 N/m

Answer may very but include: The terminal velocity of an object falling through a fluid is its maximum attainable velocity in the fluid. it is said to occur when the sum of the drag force and the buoyancy is equal to the downward force of gravity acting on the object. At terminal velocity, the object stops accelerating and moves at constant velocity.

A school bus moves slower and slower. Using what you have learned about forces, explain why the bus moves slower and slower.

Levart [38]

Answer:

I don't exactly know what you learned but it could be because of more friction or the bus was running out of gas.

A laser emits two wavelengths (λ1 = 420 nm; λ2 = 630 nm). When these two wavelengths strike a grating with 450 lines/mm, they pr

Westkost [7]

A) Order of the first laser: 3, order of the second laser: 2

B) The overlap occurs at an angle of $34.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

A)

The formula that gives the position of the maxima (bright fringes) for a diffraction grating is

$d sin \theta = m \lambda$

where

d is spacing between the lines in the grating

$\theta$ is the angle of the maximum

m is the order of diffraction

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light

For laser 1,

$d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1$

For laser 2,

$d sin \theta = m_2 \lambda_2$

where

$\lambda_1 = 420 nm\\\lambda_2 = 630 nm$

Since the position of the maxima in the two cases overlaps, then the term $d sin \theta$ on the left is the same for the two cases, therefore we can write:

$m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda_2\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{630}{420}=\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore:

$m_1 = 3$

$m_2 = 2$

B)

In order to find the angle at which the overlap occurs, we use the 1st laser situation:

$d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1$

where:

N = 450 lines/mm = 450,000 lines/m is the number of lines per unit length, so the spacing between the lines is

$d=\frac{1}{N}=\frac{1}{450,000}=2.2\cdot 10^{-6} m$

$m_1 = 3$ is the order of the maximum

$\lambda_1 = 420 nm = 420\cdot 10^{-9} m$ is the wavelength of the laser light

Solving for $\theta$ , we find the angle of the maximum:

$sin \theta = \frac{m_1 \lambda_1}{d}=\frac{(3)(420\cdot 10^{-9})}{2.2\cdot 10^{-6}}=0.572$

So the angle is

$\theta=sin^{-1}(0.572)=34.9^{\circ}$
