Two equal masses are attached to separate identical springs next to one another. One mass is pulled so its spring stretches 20 c

m and the other is pulled so its spring stretches only 10 cm. The masses are released simultaneously.Which mass reaches the equilibrium point first?

Answer:

Both reaches equilibrium simultaneously.

Explanation:

Given that,

First stretch spring= 20 cm

Second stretch spring = 10 cm

Two equal masses are suspended from identical spring.

Their forces constants are equal time period for oscillation

Using formula of time period

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

Where, T = time period

m = mass

k = spring constant

Time period independent of amplitude.

Hence, Both reaches equilibrium simultaneously.

Answer:

both reaches at the same time.

Explanation:

The time period of the mass is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{K}}

where, K be the spring constant and m be the mass attached.

As both the masses are same and springs are identical so K is same for both the springs.

Thus, both the masses will reach at the equilibrium position at the same time.

How was the speed of light determined
goblinko [34]
Presently, the speed of light in a vacuum is defined to be exactly 299,792,458 m/s (approximately 186,282 miles per second). . An early experiment to measure the speed of light was conducted by Ole Romer, a Danish physicist, in 1676. Using a telescope, Ole observed the motions of Jupiter and one of its moons, Io

bixtya [17]
The sample appears to have gone through 3 half-lives
1st half life: 1000 to 500 g
2nd half life: 500 to 250 g
3rd half life: 250 to 125 g
The duration of a half-life, therefore, can be inferred to be 66 ÷ (3) = 22 days. 

After a 4th half life, there will be 125÷2= 62.5 g. 
At this point, an additional 22 days will have passed, for a total of 88 days.
Answer is C.
