A force F=0.12N is aplied on spring and spring elongates by 3cm . specific constant of spring

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The spring constant is 4 N/m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched/compressed by the application of a force, the relationship between the magnitude of the force applied and the elongation of the spring is given by Hooke's law:

$F=kx$

where

F is the magnitude of the spring applied

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the spring, relative to its equilibrium position

For the spring in this problem, we have:

F = 0.12 N (force applied)

x = 3 cm = 0.03 m (elongation of the spring)

Therefore, we can solve the formula for k to find the spring constant:

$k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{0.12}{0.03}=4 N/m$

The alpha line in the balmer series of the hydrogen spectrum consists of light having a wavelength of 6.56. calculate the freque

guajiro [1.7K]

The alpha line in the Balmer series is the transition from n=3 to n=2 and with the wavelength of λ=656 nm = 6.56*10^-7 m. To get the frequency we need the formula: v=λ*f where v is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency, or c=λ*f. c=3*10^8 m/s. To get the frequency: f=c/λ. Now we input the numbers: f=(3*10^8)/(6.56*10^-7)=4.57*10^14 Hz. So the frequency of the light from alpha line is f= 4.57*10^14 Hz.

A person of mass 70 kg stands at the center of a rotating merry-go-round platform of radius 2.9 m and moment of inertia 900 kg⋅m

Cloud [144]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of person, m = 70 kg

Radius of merry go round, r = 2.9 m

The moment of inertia, $I_1=900\ kg.m^2$

Initial angular velocity of the platform, $\omega=0.95\ rad/s$

Part A,

Let $\omega_2$ is the angular velocity when the person reaches the edge. We need to find it. It can be calculated using the conservation of angular momentum as :

$I_1\omega_1=I_2\omega_2$

Here, $I_2=I_1+mr^2$

$I_1\omega_1=(I_1+mr^2)\omega_2$

$900\times 0.95=(900+70\times (2.9)^2)\omega_2$

Solving the above equation, we get the value as :

$\omega_2=0.574\ rad/s$

Part B,

The initial rotational kinetic energy is given by :

$k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}I_1\omega_1^2$

$k_i=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 900\times (0.95)^2$

$k_i=406.12\ rad/s$

The final rotational kinetic energy is given by :

$k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}(I_1+mr^2)\omega_1^2$

$k_f=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (900+70\times (2.9)^2)(0.574)^2$

$k_f=245.24\ rad/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.
