Answer:
- k = 167.33 N/m
Explanation:
- The radio waves have a fixed relationship between the propagation speed (the speed of light in vacuum), the frequency and the wavelength, as follows:
- v = c = λ*f
where c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s, λ = wavelength =
4.92*10⁷ m.
Solving for f, we get the frequency of the radio waves:
f = 6.1 Hz
- Now, from the Hooke's law, we know that the mass attached at the end of the spring oscillates with an angular frequency defined by a fixed relationship between the spring constant k and the mass m, as follows:
- Now, we know that there exists a fixed relationship between the angular frequency and the frequency, as follows:
- We also know that f in (2) is the same that we got for the radio waves, so replacing (2) in (1), and rearranging terms, we can solve for k, as follows:
