Answer: True
Explanation:
As the spring is compressed, it acumulates energy, and the spring "wants to release that energy". This acumulated energy, (potential energy) is called "elastic potential energy" because of the elastical nature of the spring, that when compressed it wants to return to the original shape. So the sentence is true
Answer: f = 927.55Hz
Explanation: Since the the tube is open-closed, the length of air and the wavelength of sound passing through the tube is given below
L = λ/4 where λ = wavelength.
speed of sound in air = v = 343m/s.
fundamental frequency of open closed tube = 315Hz
λ = 4L.
v = fλ
343 = 315 * 4L
343 = 1260 * L
L = 343/ 1260
L = 0.27m
In the same tube of length L = 0.27m but different medium ( helium), the speed of sound is 1010m/s.
The length of tube and wavelength are related by the formulae below
L = λ/4, λ=4L
λ = 4 * 0.27
λ = 1.087m.
v = fλ
1010 = f * 1.087
f = 1010/1.807
f = 927.55Hz
The lights are wired in PARALLEL.
In fact, when the lights are connected in parallel, they are connected on separate branches to the source of voltage, so if one light bulb burns out, the other lights continue to work because the current continues to flow in the other branches of the circuit.
Vice-versa, if the light bulbs are connected in series, they are on the same branch This means that if one of them burns out, the circuit is open in that point, so the current cannot flow anymore and the other light bulbs turn off as well.
