A meter is 100 meters. So a hundredth of a meter stick is a centimeter.<span />

Answer

\frac{1}{100}

Explanation:

A meter stick is a tool used to measure length and distances. We know that one meter is equal to 100cm.

So,

100 cm = 1 meter

1 cm = \frac{1}{100} meter

Thus we can see that one hundredth of a meter stick is one centimeter.

The centimeter scale can be used to measure smaller lengths.

Two plane mirrors are separated by 120°, as the drawing illustrates. If a ray strikes mirror M1 at a θ1 = 64° angle of incidence
tino4ka555 [31]

Angle, θ2 at which the light leaves mirror 2 is 56°

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

θ1 = 64°

So, α will also be 64°

According to the figure:

α + β = 90°

So,

β = 90° - α

  = 90° - 64°

  = 26°

β + γ + 120° = 180°

γ = 180° - 120° - β

γ = 180° - 120° - 26°

γ = 34°

γ + δ = 90°

δ = 90° - γ

δ = 90° - 34°

δ = 56°

According to the law of reflection,

angle of incidence = angle of reflection

θ2 = δ = 56°

Therefore, angle θ2 at which the light leaves mirror 2 is 56°

What is the element with the lowest electronegativity value?
Lerok [7]
<h2>Answer: Francium </h2>

Let's start by explaining that electronegativity is a term coined by Linus Pauling and is determined by the <em>ability of an atom of a certain element to attract electrons when chemically combined with another atom. </em>

So, the more electronegative an element is, the more electrons it will attract.

It should be noted that this value can not be measured directly by experiments, but it can be determined indirectly by means of calculations from other atomic or molecular properties of the element. That is why the scale created by Pauling is an arbitrary scale, where the maximum value of electronegativity is 4, assigned to Fluorine (F) and the <u>lowest is 0.7, assigned to Francium (Fr).</u>

A mass weighing 24 pounds, attached to the end of a spring, stretches it 4 inches. Initially, the mass is released from rest fro
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The equation of motion is x(t)=-\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}

Explanation:

Lets calculate

The weight attached to the spring is 24 pounds

Acceleration due to gravity is 32ft/s^2

Assume x , is spring stretched length is ,4 inches

Converting the length inches into feet x=\frac{4}{12} =\frac{1}{3}feet

The weight (W=mg) is balanced by restoring force ks at equilibrium position

mg=kx

W=kx ⇒ k=\frac{W}{x}

The spring constant , k=\frac{24}{1/3}

                            = 72

If the mass is displaced from its equilibrium position by an amount x, then the differential equation is

    m\frac{d^2x}{dt} +kx=0

    \frac{3}{4} \frac{d^2x}{dt} +72x=0

  \frac{d^2x}{dt} +96x=0

Auxiliary equation is, m^2+96=0

                                 m=\sqrt{-96}

                               =\frac{+}{} i4\sqrt{6}

Thus , the solution is x(t)=c_1cos4\sqrt{6t}+c_2sin4\sqrt{6t}

                                 x'(t)=-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6t}+c_2  4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6t}

The mass is released from the rest x'(0) = 0

                    =-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6(0)}+c_2 4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6(0)} =0

                                                    c_2 4\sqrt{6} =0

                                     c_2=0

Therefore , x(t)=c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6t}

Since , the mass is released from the rest from 4 inches

                    x(0)= -4 inches

c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6(0)} =-\frac{4}{12} feet

   c_1=-\frac{1}{3} feet

Therefore , the equation of motion is  -\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}
