So what we can do is apply the<span> Hooke's law wich states that
F = -kx ( P.S the -ve sign means opposite in direction ) 
Also we will need to determine the spring's constant with the formula:
k = F / x 
Where F = the force ( = 20 N ) 
x = the displacement of the end of the spring from it's position ( = 0.20 m ) 
k = the spring's constant ( = unknown ) 
So this would be: k = 20 / 0.20 = 100 N/m 
The period of oscillation of 4 kg : T = 2 * pi * square root m / k 
T = 2 * pi * square root 4 / 100 
T = 1.256 seconds
Hope it helps</span>

Which of the following statements best describes the second law of
Serga [27]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Heat flows from hot to cold to lower the temperature of hot areas and increase temperature of cold areas. The end result is that the 2 areas have the same temperature, thus increasing entropy.

A pillow with mass of 0.3 kg sits on a bed with a coefficient of static friction of 0.6. What is the maximum force of static fri
lys-0071 [83]
The maximum force of static friction is the product of normal force (P) and the coefficient of static friction (c). In a flat surface, normal force is equal to the weight (W) of the body. 
 
                        P = W = mass x acceleration due to gravity
    
                    P = (0.3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 2.94 kg m/s² = 2.94 N

Solving for the static friction force (F), 
                                              F = P x c 
 
                                      F = (2.94 N) x 0.6 = 1.794 N

Therefore, the maximum force of static friction is 1.794 N.

What kind of energy change occurs when a battery is operating a remote control toy?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C.

When the battery is operating a remote control toy the energy is converted from potential energy to the kinetic energy.

A battery stores electrical potential from the chemical reaction.

When the circuit is connected to the potential energy of the battery helps in the movement of the toy.

The energy produced by the movement of the control toy is kinetic energy.

Hence, we can say that Potential energy is changed to kinetic energy

Explain why frog will not look green under the red light?
IrinaVladis [17]
A frog can be many different colours. It appears green under normal 'white' light because it absorbs all the other colours in the light's spectrum apart from green. It reflects the green light back and that is picked up by your eye.

If the light is red, there is no green in the spectrum of the light, only red. So, the red light will be absorbed and there is no green to be reflected back for you to see. Therefore, the frog will not look green.

Do you think most people follow the recommended guidelines for an adequate exercise routine?
blondinia [14]

Personally, I know that I don't however it all depends on the person's lifestyle, health, and resoucres, such as if they are able to complete the excersise or have enough money fore equpemnt. To be safe, I would say that the majority of people do follow the guidelines although they may manipulate it to fit their best interest.
