Explanation:
Equilibrium position in y direction:
W = Fb (Weight of the block is equal to buoyant force)
m*g = V*p*g
V under water = A*h
hence,
m = A*h*p
Using Newton 2nd Law
Hence, T time period
T = 2*pi*sqrt ( h / g )
Three point charges have equal magnitudes, two being positive and one negative. These charges are fixed to the corners of an equ
ilateral triangle, as the drawing shows. The magnitude of each of the charges is 3.0 μC, and the lengths of the sides of the triangle are 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude of the net force that each charge experiences.

Answer:
Magnitude of the net force on q₁-
Fn₁=1403 N
Magnitude of the net force on q₂+
Fn₂= 810 N
Magnitude of the net force on q₃+
Fn₃= 810 N
Explanation:
Look at the attached graphic:
The charges of the same sign exert forces of repulsion and the charges of opposite sign exert forces of attraction.
Each of the charges experiences 2 forces and these forces are equal and we calculate them with Coulomb's law:
F= (k*q*q)/(d)²
F= (9*10⁹*3*10⁻⁶*3*10⁻⁶)(0.01)² =810N
Magnitude of the net force on q₁-
Fn₁x= 0
Fn₁y= 2*F*sin60 = 2*810*sin60° = 1403 N
Fn₁=1403 N
Magnitude of the net force on q₃+
Fn₃x= 810- 810 cos 60° = 405 N
Fn₃y= 810*sin 60° = 701.5 N
Fn₃ = 810 N
Magnitude of the net force on q₂+
Fn₂ = Fn₃ = 810 N

Answer : The frequency decreases by a factor of 2.
Explanation :
Given that the wave travels at a constant speed. The speed of the wave is given as :
Where
υ is the frequency of the wave
and λ is the wavelength of the wave.
In this case, the speed is constant. So, the relation between the frequency and the wavelength is inverse.
If the wavelength increases by a factor of 2, its frequency will decrease by a factor of 2.
Hence, the correct option is (A) " The frequency decreases by a factor of 2 ".
The work done to pull the sister back on the swing is equal to the increase in potential energy of the sister:

Answer:
Explanation:
This is a problem easily solve using energy conservation. As there are no non-conservative forces, we know that the energy is conserved.
When the spring is compressed downward, the spring has elastic potential energy. When the spring is relaxed, there is no elastic potential energy, but the pellet will have gained gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. Lets see what are the terms for each of this.
<h3>Elastic potential energy</h3>We know that a spring following Hooke's Law has a elastic potential energy:
where is the displacement from the relaxed length and k is the spring's constant.
To obtain the spring's constant, we know that Hooke's law states that the force made by the spring is :
as we need 9.12 N to compress 4.60 cm, this means:
So, the elastic energy of the compressed spring is:
And when the spring is relaxed, the elastic potential energy will be zero.
<h3>Gravitational potential energy</h3>To see how much gravitational potential energy will the pellet win, we can use
where m is the mass of the pellet, g is the acceleration due to gravity and \Delta h is the difference in height.
Taking all this together, the gravitational potential energy when the spring is relaxed will be:
We know that the kinetic energy for a mass m moving at speed v is:
so, for the pellet will be
By conservation of energy, we know:
So
