On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 280 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You'r

arsen [322]

Answer:

5.31143691523 m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass = 280 g

x = Displacement of spring = 21.7 cm

Time period

$T=\dfrac{14}{11}\\\Rightarrow T=1.27\ s$

Angular velocity is given by

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{1.27}\\\Rightarrow \omega=4.94739\ rad/s$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow k=\omega^2m\\\Rightarrow k=4.94739^2\times 0.28\\\Rightarrow k=6.85346698739\ N/m$

From Hooke's law

$mg=kx\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{kx}{m}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{6.85346698739\times 0.217}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow g=5.31143691523\ m/s^2$

The acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 5.31143691523 m/s²

Yes, I have been able to satisfy my curiosity.

A flute is designed so that it plays a frequency of 261.6 Hz, middle C, when all the holes are covered and the temperature is 20

irinina [24]

Answer:

0.655 m

13.468°C

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound at 20.0°C = 343 m/s (general value)

For one both end open we have the expression

$L=\dfrac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{v}{f_1}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=\dfrac{\dfrac{343}{261.6}}{2}\\\Rightarrow L=0.655581039755\ m$

The length of the flute is 0.655 m

Beat frequency is given by

$\Delta f=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 3=261.6-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=261.6-3\\\Rightarrow f_2=258.6\ Hz$

Velocity of the wave is

$v=f_2\lambda_1\\\Rightarrow v=258.6\times \dfrac{343}{261.6}\\\Rightarrow v=339.066513761\ m/s$

The temperature is given by

$T=273(\dfrac{v}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=273(\dfrac{339.066513761}{331})^2\\\Rightarrow T=286.468227799\ K=286.468227799-273=13.468227799^{\circ}C$

The temperature of the room is 13.468°C

Determine the weight in newtons of a woman whose weight in pounds is 157. Also, find her mass in slugs and in kilograms. Determi

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Weight of the woman in Newton

$x = 698.6 \ N$

Mass of the woman in slug

$Mass = 4.86 \ slug$

Mass of the woman in kg

$Mass = 16 \ kg$

My weight in Newton

$W = 784 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the woman in pounds is $W = 157 \ lb$

Converting to Newton

1 N = 0.22472 lb

x N = 157

=> $x = \frac{157 * 1}{0.22472}$

=> $x = 698.6 \ N$

Obtaining the mass in slug

$Mass = \frac{W}{g}$

Here $g = 32.2 ft/s^2$

$Mass = \frac{157 }{32.2}$

$Mass = 4.86 \ slug$

Obtaining the mass in kilogram

$Mass = \frac{W}{g}$

Here $g = 9.8 \ m/s$

$Mass = \frac{157 }{9.8}$

$Mass = 16 \ kg$

Generally weight is mathematically represented as

$W = m * g$

Given that my mass is 80 kg then my weight is

$W = 80 *9.8$

$W = 784 \ N$

What can the magnetic field be used for

deff fn [24]

Answer:

the magnetic field can be used to make electricity

Explanation:

Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current. Electricity generators essentially convert kinetic energy (the energy of motion) into electrical energy
