Answer: The period doubles.

Explanation: this is a question on the relationship between the period (T) of a loaded spring and it mass (m), the formulae relating both quantities is given below.

T =2π * √m/k

Where T= period, m= mass and k = spring constant.

By squaring both sides, we have

T² = 4π² * m/k

T² = (4π²/k) * m

The expression (4π²/k) is a constant, hence

T² = K *m... This implies that square of period is proportional to mass.

Hence

(T1)²/m1 = (T2)²/m2

From the question, m2 =4m1 and we are to find T2.

(T1)²/m1 = (T2)²/4m1

(T1)² = (T2)²/4

4(T1)² = (T2)²

T2 =√4(T1)²

T2 = 2T1

this implies that T2 is twice or double T1

The particle accelerator at CERN can accelerate an electron through a potential
asambeis [7]

Answer:

K.E = 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV

Explanation:

Given that a particle accelerator at CERN can accelerate an electron through a potentialdifference of 80 kilovolts.

To Calculate the kinetic energy (in keV) of the electron​, let us first find the electron charge which is 1.60 × 10^-19C

The kinetic energy = work done

K.E = e × kV

Substitute e and the voltage into the formula

K.E = 1.60 × 10^-19 × 80

K.E = 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV

Therefore, the kinetic energy is approximately equal to 1.28 × 10^-17 KeV

(m = 4.0 kg) the cockroach rides on the rim (at radius R) of a disk (M = 6.0 kg) that turns about its center like a merry-go-rou
kvasek [131]

Answer:

ω' = 2.5 rad/s

Explanation:

mass of cockroach, m = 4 kg

mass of disk, M = 6 kg

Radius of disc= R

initial angular velocity, ω = 2 rad/s

Let the final angular velocity is ω'

As no external torque is applied, so the angular momentum is constant.

Angular momentum = Moment of inertia x angular velocity

I ω = I' ω'

\frac{1}{2}\left ( M+m \right )R^{2}\times {2} = \left (\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}+m(0.5R)^{2})  \right )\omega '

10R^{2} = 4R^{2}\omega '

ω' = 2.5 rad/s
