Answer:
(a) The spring constant is 59.23 N/m
(b) The total energy involved in the motion is 0.06 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass, m = 240 g = 0.24 kg
frequency, f = 2.5 Hz
amplitude of the oscillation, A = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m
The angular speed is calculated as;
ω = 2πf
ω = 2 x π x 2.5
ω = 15.71 rad/s
(a) The spring constant is calculated as;

(b) The total energy involved in the motion;
E = ¹/₂kA²
E = (0.5) x (59.23) x (0.045)²
E = 0.06 J
The flow of electrons in the circuit will be less.
Free fall means your falling because of gravity and weight and will eventually hit the ground without any protection. weightlessness means a place or time where there is no gravity and you're floating and not falling.
Answer: Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y
Explanation:
According to Kepler’s Third Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.
(1)
Where;
is the Gravitational Constant
is the mass of the Earth
is the semimajor axis of the orbit each satellite describes around Earth (assuming it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)
So for satellite X, the orbital period
is:
(2)
Where 
(3)
(4)
For satellite Y, the orbital period
is:
(5)
Where 
(6)
(7)
This means 
Now let's calculate the tangential speed for both satellites:
<u>For Satellite X:</u>
(8)
(9)
<u>For Satellite Y:</u>
(10)
(11)
This means 
Therefore:
Satellite X has a greater period and a slower tangential speed than Satellite Y
