8 0

Answer:

0.555 Hz

Explanation:

The period of the oscillation is the time taken for the for the object to return to its original position. (ie. Displacement = 0). From the above snapshot,

Period of oscillation = 1.80s.

From here, finding the frequency is simple as, Frequency = 1/Period. Hence,

Frequency = 1/1.80

= <u>0.555 Hz</u> (3 sf)

light travels approximately 982,080,000 ft/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is the distance li

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The distance traveled in 1 year is: $3.143*10^{16}ft$

Explanation:

Given

$s = 982,080,000 ft/s$ --- speed

$t = 32,000,000 s$ --- time

Required

The distance traveled

This is calculated as:

$Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

So, we have:

$Distance = Speed * Time$

This gives:

$Distance = 982,080,000 ft/s * 32,000,000 s$

$Distance = 982,080,000 * 32,000,000ft$

$Distance = 3.143*10^{16}ft$ -- approximated

The current in a circuit is tripled by connecting a 580 resistor in parallel with the resistance of the circuit. Determine the r

const2013 [10]

Answer:

1160 ohm

Explanation:

We are given that

R'=580 ohm

Current=3 I

We have to find the resistance of the circuit.

Let R be the resistance of circuit.

In parallel

$\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}$

Using the formula

$\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{580}+\frac{1}{R}=\frac{580+R}{580R}$

$R_{eq}=\frac{580R}{580+R}$

In parallel combination,Potential difference across each resistance remains same.

$V=IR$

Using the formula

$IR=3IR_{eq}$

$IR=3I\times \frac{580R}{580+R}$

$580+R=3\times 580=1740$

$R=1740-580=1160\Omega$
