How are vibrations different between bigger sizes rubber bands and smaller sized rubber bands?

Assuming the kind of vibration you are talking about is the kind where you stretch the rubber band between two points and then "twang" it, then the answer is fairly complex. What happens when you cause the vibrations to start is you make something called a "standing wave". In a standing wave, each particle in the rubber band has a certain amount of energy which causes it to move backwards and forwards, the particles with more energy have a larger "amplitude" (how much they move), and of course the particles with less energy have a smaller amplitude. Now a standing wave has two main components: The amplitude, and the frequency. The amplitude of the whole wave refers to the largest amplitude any particles has. The frequency refers to how often it takes for one of the particles to move between the two furthest away points it can be.
To compare rubber bands, you must remember to keep certain things constant. If you're looking at their vibrations, the amount of energy you use to "twang" the rubber band should be the same each time you twang it (which is the same as applying the same force each time you twang it).

A larger rubber band has more area over which to spread the energy, as well as it has more mass for the energy to move, so the vibrations will have smaller amplitudes, and smaller frequencies, overall vibrating less and with smaller vibrations.

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

12.371 g

Explanation:

Given :

m_{evaporating\ dish}=1.135\ g

m_{evaporating\ dish}+m_{Hydrate\ sample}=25.637\ g

m_{evaporating\ dish}+m_{First\ heated\ sample}=16.428\ g

m_{evaporating\ dish}+m_{Second\ heated\ sample}=13.266\ g

Mass of salt hydrate:

m_{evaporating\ dish}=1.135\ g

m_{evaporating\ dish}+m_{Hydrate\ sample}=25.637\ g

m_{Hydrate\ sample}=25.637-m_{evaporating\ dish}\ g=25.637-1.135\ g=24.502\ g

Mass of salt anhydrous:

m_{evaporating\ dish}=1.135\ g

m_{evaporating\ dish}+m_{Second\ heated\ sample}=13.266\ g

m_{Second\ heated\ sample}=m_{salt\ anhydrous}=13.266-m_{evaporating\ dish}\ g=13.266-1.135\ g=12.131\ g

Mass of water:

m_{water}=m_{Hydrate\ sample}-m_{salt\ anhydrous}=24.502-12.131\ g=12.371\ g

m_{water}=12.371\ g

Define: Atomic Mass, Mass Number, Isotope
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

the mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units. It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.

the total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus.

to write the symbol for an isotope, place the atomic number as a subscript and the mass number (protons plus neutrons) as a superscript to the left of the atomic symbol
