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}

zhenek [66]

Explanation:

Since compasses work by pointing along magnetic field lines, this means that there must be a magnetic field near the wire through which the current is flowing.

1)why do we get electric shock while holding a live wire barefooted and not when wearing rubber shoes?
katrin2010 [14]
Electricity is always going to take the path of least resistance to ground. The rubber in your shoes is not a conductor of electricity, therefore you are not completing the circuit and you don't get shocked. Your bare feet, on the other hand ARE conductors of electricity, so when you hold the wire, you complete the circuit and become the path of least resistance to ground... ZAP!

Answer:
They are both wrong!

Liquid oxygen really is a pale blue color.
I’ve seen it.

And they cant say that liquid and solid oxygen is blue which makes the sky blue because they’re not and it doesn’t make up for the color of the sky.

The sky is actually blue because It reflects more light than It can absorb
aka Rayleigh Scattering.
