Wewaii [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

0.4 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces: weight force mg pulling down, buoyancy force ρVg pushing up, and tension force T pulling up.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T + ρVg − mg = 0

T = mg − ρVg

T = g (m − ρV)

Plugging in values:

T = (9.8 m/s) ((2.5 g/cm³ × 20 cm³) − (1 g/cm³) (10 cm³)) (1 kg / 1000 g)

T = 0.392 N

Rounded to one significant figure, the reading of the spring scale is 0.4 N.

Trevor places a mass on a spring. When he releases it, the mass and spring move in simple harmonic motion.
777dan777 [17]

The correct answer is D He could pull the mass down farther.

Amplitude, is the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. So to increase the amplitude the spring should be pulled down further which can increase the amplitude.

Can tectonic plates switch places with other tectonic plates, Im generally curious
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Earth's crust, called the lithosphere, consists of 15 to 20 moving tectonic plates. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other. This movement is called plate motion, or tectonic shift.
