We are given information:
m = 80g = 0.080kg
x = 10cm = 0.10m
F = 0.2N
d = 20cm = 0.20m

This mass-spring system can be represented as harmonic oscilator. Harmonic oscilator is a type of oscilator where mass oscilates around equilibrium point. Maximum distance on both sides of equilibrium point remains same Period of oscilation is constant. In harmonic oscilator all outside forces are neglected.

In this problem we have mass attached to a spring so we can use spring formula:
F = -kx
where k = spring constant
We can rearrange this formula in order to calculate k. We will ignore negative sign.
k = F / x
k = 0.2 / 0.1
k = 2 N/m

Now we can use this information to calculate the period. Formula is:
T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{m}{k} }  \\  \\ T=2 \pi  \sqrt{ \frac{0.080}{2} }   \\  \\ T=1.26s

We can see from formula that the period does not depend on maximum distance from equilibrium point. It only depends on mass and spring constant.

A wheel rotates with a constant angular acceleration of  rad/s2. During a certain time interval its angular displacement is  r
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is \pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular acceleration \alpha=\pi\ rad/s^2

Angular displacement \theta=\pi\ rad

Angular velocity \omega =2\pi\ rad/s

We need to calculate the angular velocity at the beginning

Using formula of angular velocity

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega^2-\omega_{0}^2}{2\theta}

\omega_{0}^2=\omega^2-2\alpha\theta

Where, \alpha = angular acceleration

\omega = angular velocity

Put the value into the formula

\omega_{0}^2=(2\pi)^2-2\times\pi\times\pi

\omega=\sqrt{2\pi^2}

\omega_{0}=\pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s

Hence, The angular velocity at the beginning of the interval is \pi\sqrt{2}\ rad/s.

A geyser shoots water straight up into the air with a velocity of 28.0 m/s. how
Fed [463]

The maximum height reached by the water  before it starts coming back down is 40 m.

<h3>Maximum height reached by the water</h3>

The maximum height reached by the water  before it starts coming back down is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy.

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

h = (v²)/(2g)

h = (28²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 40 m
