Can somebody please explain to me how the acceleration in simple hormonic motion is proportional to the displacement..

When you graph simple harmonic motion in an acceleration versus displacement graph, the graph at any point would be linear. The graph would also pass through the origin giving proportionality of acceleration to negative displacement. Definition of proportionality neglects the negative value of the displacement so therefore acceleration is proportional to displacement. The acceleration of the motion is always directed towards equilibrium and so at maximum displacement, there would be greatest negative acceleration and vise versa.At the origin, the displacement would be zero and acceleration would also be zero

Of the numbers 0.0034 m, 45.6 m, and 1234 m, which is the most precise?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The most precise is 0.0034 m ⇒ 1st answer

Explanation:

<em>Lets revise the meaning of precise</em>

Precision is referred as the closeness of two measurements to one

another.

Highest number with significant digit is the most precise

Ex: <em>Highest significant </em>of optical instrument is the Wavelength of visible (red)

light = 0.00006 cm

Hence the <em><u>most precise</u></em> device for measuring length is the given optical

instrument

The difference between accuracy and precise

<em>Accuracy</em> is how close a value is to its true value

<em>Precision</em> is how repeatable a measurement is

We have three numbers

0.0034 m, 45.6 m, and 1234 m

The least precise is 1234 m

The most precise is 0.0034 m

At a certain point in space, there is a potential of 800 V relative to zero. What is the potential energy of the system when a +
sammy [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to electric potential and electric potential energy. By definition we know that the electric potential is determined under the function:

V = \frac{k_e q}{r}

k_e = Coulomb's constant

q = Charge

r = Radius

At the same time

U = \frac{k_e q_1q_2}{r}

The values of variables are the same, then if we replace in a single equation we have this expression,

U  = Vq

If we replace the values, we have finally that the charge is,

V = 800V

q = 1\mu C

U = (800V)(1*10^{-6}C)

U = 8*10^{-4}J

Therefore the potential energy of the system is 8*10^{-4} J

Solve these problems on charges by finding out Q1 and Q2. Q1Q2= 4x10^6, Q1 + Q2 =8.00×10^-6​
inna [77]

Answer:

Answer:

Q_1 = 7Q

1

=7

Q_2 = 10Q

2

=10

Q_3 = 13.5Q

3

=13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5, 7, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 15, 17.

Required

Determine Q1, Q2 and Q3

The number of data is 9

Calculating Q1:

Q1 is calculated as:

Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(N + 1)Q

1

=

4

1

(N+1)

Substitute 9 for N

Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(9 + 1)Q

1

=

4

1

(9+1)

Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}*10Q

1

=

4

1

∗10

Q_1 = 2.5th\ itemQ

1

=2.5th item

This means that the Q1 is the mean of the 2nd and 3rd data.

So:

Q_1 = \frac{1}{2}(7+7)Q

1

=

2

1

(7+7)

Q_1 = \frac{1}{2}*14Q

1

=

2

1

∗14

Q_1 = 7Q

1

=7

Calculating Q2:

Q2 is calculated as:

Q_2 = \frac{1}{2}(N + 1)Q

2

=

2

1

(N+1)

Substitute 9 for N

Q_2 = \frac{1}{2}(9 + 1)Q

2

=

2

1

(9+1)

Q_2 = \frac{1}{2}*10Q

2

=

2

1

∗10

Q_2 = 5th\ itemQ

2

=5th item

Q_2 = 10Q

2

=10

Calculating Q3:

Q3 is calculated as:

Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(N + 1)Q

3

=

4

3

(N+1)

Substitute 9 for N

Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(9 + 1)Q

3

=

4

3

(9+1)

Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}*10Q

3

=

4

3

∗10

Q_3 = 7.5th\ itemQ

3

=7.5th item

This means that the Q3 is the mean of the 7th and 8th data.

So:

Q_3 = \frac{1}{2}(12+15)Q

3

=

2

1

(12+15)

Q_3 = \frac{1}{2}*27Q

3

=

2

1

∗27

Q_3 = 13.5Q

3

=13.5
