A spring has a force constant k, and an object of mass m is suspended from it. The spring is cut in half and the same object is

suspended from one of the halves. How are the frequency of oscillation, before and after the spring is cut, related?

Answer:

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}

Explanation:

From frequency of oscillation

f = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

Initially with the suspended string, the above equation is correct for the relation, hence

f1 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

where k is force constant and m is the mass

When the spring is cut into half, by physics, the force constant will be doubled as they are inversely proportional

f2 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{2k/m}

Employing f2/ f1, we have

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}

Answer:

the water level remains same

Explanation:

This can be explained by Archimedes's principle which says that the wood will sink if weight of wood is more than the weight of the water displaced with weight equal to the water displaced otherwise the wood will float.

Therefore, buoyancy or the buoyant force is the same as the weight of wood, the weight of the water displaced by wood is also the same as that of the weight of wood.

Thus, we can see that the weight of the wood remains same and so is the level of water.

A long point-object, mass = 1.0 kg, moves in a circular path at a radial distance = 0.5 m from the axis of rotation. What is the
Vinvika [58]

Answer:0.25\ kg-m^2

Explanation:

Given

mass of Point object m=1 kg

Distance r=0.5 m

Since mass is moving in circular path therefore every time mass is at distance of r from center .

Also Moment of Inertia tells about  the distribution of mass over the given region with respect to center of mass.

Therefore I=mr^2

I=1\times 0.5^2

I=0.25\ kg-m^2
