Answer:

46.67 N/m.

Explanation:

Using,

T = 2π[√(m/k)].............. Equation 1

Where T = period of the oscillation, m = mass attached to the end of the spring, k = spring constant of the spring.

make k the subject of the equation.

k = (4π²)m/T²................ Equation 2

Given: T = 0.65 s, m = 0.5 kg, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 2

k = 0.5(4×3.14²)/0.65²

k = 46.67 N/m

Therefore the force constant of the spring = 46.67 N/m

Answer:

46.77N/m

Explanation:

to find the spring constant you can use the following formula:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

T: period of oscillation = 0.65s

m: mass of the object = 0.50kg

By doing k the subject of the formula and replacing you obtain:

k=4\pi^2\frac{m}{T^2}=4\pi^2\frac{0.50kg}{(0.65s)^2}=46.72\frac{N}{m}

hence, the spring constant is 46.77N/m

An astronaut on the moon throws a baseball upward. the astronaut is 6ft, 6 in. tall and the initial velocity of the ball is 30 f
Ainat [17]
The equation is garbled and the question is missing.

I found this equation for the same statement:

S = - 2.7t ^2 + 30t + 6.5

And one question is: after how many seconds is the ball 12 feet above the moon's surface?

Given that S is the height of the ball, you just have to replace S with 12 and solve for t.

=> 12 = - 2.7 t^2 + 30t + 6.5

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t - 6.5 + 12 = 0

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t + 5.5 = 0

Now you can use the quadratic equation fo find t:

t = { 30 +/- √ [30^2) - 4(2.7)(5.5)] } / (2*2.7)

=> t = 0.186s and t = 10.925 s

Answer: after 0.186 s the ball is at 12 feet over the surface, and again 10.925 s

Why does a multi-cell lithium battery need a Battery Management System, while a multi-cell lead-acid battery uses just a simple
yarga [219]

Answer:

Explanation:A battery management system is essentially the “brain” of a battery pack; it measures and reports crucial information for the operation of the battery and also also protects the battery from damage in a wide range of operating conditions.  

Let's take a look at a battery management system to familiarize ourselves with its components.  

The single most important function that a battery management system performs is cell protection.  

Lithium ion battery cells have two critical design issues; if you overcharge them you can damage them and cause overheating and even explosion or flame so it's important to have a battery management system to provide overvoltage protection .

Lithium ion cells can also be damaged if they're discharged below a certain threshold, approximately 5 percent of total capacity. If the cells are discharged below this threshold their capacity can become permanently reduced.  

To ensure a battery's charge doesn't go above or below its limits, a battery management system has a safeguard device called a dedicated Lithium-ion protector  

Every battery protection circuit has two electronic switches called "MOSFETs." MOSFETs are semiconductors used to switch electronic signals on or off in a circuit.

Which description correctly summarizes how an electric motor causes an axle to turn?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The poles of the magnetic field generated around the armature are attracted to the opposite poles of the permanent magnet. As the opposite poles align, the commutator reverses the current direction so like poles are aligned and the armature continues to spin.
