Answer:
m = 3.91 kg
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the object, m = 3.74 kg
Stretching in the spring, x = 0.0161 m
The frequency of vibration, f = 3.84 Hz
When the object is suspended, the gravitational force is balanced by the spring force as :



k = 2276.52 N/m
The frequency of vibration is given by :



m = 3.91 kg
So, the mass of the object is 3.91 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Explanation:
a=v-u/t
a=acceleration
v=final velocity
u=initial velocity
t=tme taken
we need to convert from kph to ms⁻¹
v= 150*1000/60*60= 41.67ms⁻¹
u= 120*1000/60*60= 33.33ms⁻¹
t= 2*60= 120s
a=41.67-33.33/120
a=8.34/120
a=0.0694ms⁻²
The change in temperature here corresponds to a sensible heat. The amount of energy required can be calculated by multiplying the specific heat capacity, the amount of the substance and the corresponding change in temperature.
Heat required = mCΔT
Heat required = 0.368 kg (0.0920 cal/g°C) (60 - 23)°C
Heat required = 1.25 cal
Answer:
x = 0.775m
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
In the attached figure we see the locations of the charges. We place the charge q₃ at a distance x from the origin. The forces F₂₃ and F₁₃ are attractive forces because the charges have an opposite sign, and these forces must be equal so that the net force on the charge q₃ is zero.
We apply Coulomb's law to calculate the electrical forces on q₃:
(Electric force of q₂ over q₃)
(Electric force of q₁ over q₃)
Known data
q₁ = 15 μC = 15*10⁻⁶ C
q₂ = 6 μC = 6*10⁻⁶ C
Problem development
F₂₃ = F₁₃
(We cancel k and q₃)

q₂(2-x)² = q₁x²
6×10⁻⁶(2-x)² = 15×10⁻⁶(x)² (We cancel 10⁻⁶)
6(2-x)² = 15(x)²
6(4-4x+x²) = 15x²
24 - 24x + 6x² = 15x²
9x² + 24x - 24 = 0
The solution of the quadratic equation is:
x₁ = 0.775m
x₂ = -3.44m
x₁ meets the conditions for the forces to cancel in q₃
x₂ does not meet the conditions because the forces would remain in the same direction and would not cancel
The negative charge q₃ must be placed on x = 0.775 so that the net force is equal to zero.
