A horizontal spring with spring constant 85 N/m extends outward from a wall just above floor level. A 5.5 kg box sliding across

a frictionless floor hits the end of the spring and compresses it 6.5 cm before the spring expands and shoots the box back out. How fast was the box going when it hit the spring

Musicians can use beats to tune their instruments. One flute is properly tuned and plays the musical note A at exactly 440 Hz. A
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

439 Hz

Explanation:

f_1 = Frequency of first wave = 440 Hz

F = Beat frequency = 1 Hz

f_2 = Frequency of the instrument

The beat frequency is the difference of the two waves which are interacting with each other

F=f_1-f_2\\\Rightarrow 1=440-f_2\\\Rightarrow f_2=440-1\\\Rightarrow f_2=439\ Hz

The frequency of the instrument is 439 Hz

Answer:

The radius of the gold nucleus is 7.1x10⁻¹⁵m

Explanation:

The nearest distance is:

r=\frac{kze^{2} }{mpV^{2} } (eq. 1)

Where

z = atomic number of gold = 79

e = electron charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

k = electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹Nm²C²

energy of the particle = 32 MeV = 5.12x10⁻¹²J

At the potential energy is zero, all the energy will be kinetic energy:

E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}

Where

m = 4 mp = mass of proton

5.12x10^{-12} =\frac{1}{2} *4*m_{p}* V^{2} \\m_{p}* V^{2} = 2.56x10^{-12}

Replacing in equation 1

r=\frac{9x10^{9}*79*(1.6x10^{-19})^{2}   }{2.56x10^{-12} } =7.1x10^{-15} m

Derive an expression for the block's centripetal acceleration ac in terms of m , θ , and physical constants, as appropriate
maxonik [38]

The expression for the block's centripetal acceleration is derived as ω²r or v²/r.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

The centripetal acceleration of an object is the inward or radial acceleration of an object moving in a circular path.

The expression for the block's centripetal acceleration is derived as follows;

ω = dθ/dt

where;

  • ω is the angular speed
  • θ is the angular displacement
  • t is the time of motion

ac = ω²r

where;

  • r is the radius of the circular path

Also, ω = v/r

ac = (v/r)²r

ac = v²/r

Thus, the expression for the block's centripetal acceleration is derived as ω²r or v²/r.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

μs = 0.75

μk = 0.58

Explanation:

From a force diagram:

m*g*sin \theta - Ff=m*a     (1)

N-m*g*cos \theta = 0         (2)

When it starts slipping, friction force is the maximum and acceleration is 0. Replacing these conditions on (1):

m*g*sin \theta - \mu*m*g*cos \theta=0   Solving for μs:

\mu=tan \theta

μs = tan 36.7° = 0.75

When it moves at constant speed, friction force is kinetic friction and acceleration is 0. With these conditions the coefficient is:

μk = tan 30.1° = 0.58
