Potential energy = mass x gravity x height

P.E = 4 x 9.8 x 3
P.E = 117.6 J

This is because there is a stronger attraction between outermost electrons and nucleus, which is why the radius between them becomes smaller.

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha

Setler [38]

When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

A weight of 30.0 N is suspended from a spring that has a force constant of 220 N/m. The system is undamped and is subjected to a

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$F_0 = 393 N$

Explanation:

As we know that amplitude of forced oscillation is given as

$A = \frac{F_0}{ m(\omega^2 - \omega_0^2)}$

here we know that natural frequency of the oscillation is given as

$\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

here mass of the object is given as

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

$\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{220}{\frac{30}{9.81}}}$

$\omega_0 = 8.48 rad/s$

angular frequency of applied force is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi(10.5) = 65.97 rad/s$

now we have

$0.03 = \frac{F_0}{3.06(65.97^2 - 8.48^2)}$

$F_0 = 393 N$
