By v = u - at 
<span>=>8 = 12 - a x 0.25 </span>
<span>=>a = 4/0.25 km/hr/sec </span>
<span>=>a = 16km/hr/sec

is set into oscillatory motion with an amplitude of 23.195 cm on a spring with a spring constant of 15.2676 N/m. The mass of the
fredd [130]

Answer:

maximum speed of the bananas is 18.8183 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

amplitude A =  23.195 cm

spring constant K = 15.2676 N/m

mass of the bananas m = 56.9816 kg

to find out

maximum speed of the bananas

solution

we know that radial oscillation frequency formula that is = √(K/A)

radial oscillation frequency = √(15.2676/23.195)

radial oscillation frequency is 0.8113125 rad/s

so maximum speed of the bananas = radial oscillation frequency × amplitude

maximum speed of the bananas = 0.8113125 × 23.195

maximum speed of the bananas is 18.8183 m/s

How does tightening a string on a guitar affect its natural frequency?
iragen [17]
By tightening a string you are actually putting more stress on the string you are giving it a new frequency that isn't natural.

The radius of curvature of both sides of a converging lens is 18 cm. One side of the lens is coated withsilver so that the inner
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

n = 1.4

Explanation:

Given,

R1 = 18 cm, R2 = -18 cm

From lens makers formula

1/f = (n - 1)(1/18 + 1/18) = (n-1)/9

f = 9/(n-1)

Power, P = 1/f ( in m) = (n-1)/0.09

Now, this lens is in with conjunction with a concave mirror which then can be thought of as to be in conjunction with another thin lens

Power of concave mirror = P' = 1/f ( in m) = 2/R = 2/0.18 = 1/0.09

Net power of the combination = 2P + P' = 2(n-1)/0.09 + 1/0.09 = 1/0.05

n = 1.4
