Suppose that the period of a particular ideal mass-spring system is 5 s . What would be the period of the system if the mass wer
yan [13]

Answer: T2 = 7.07s

Explanation: The period of a loaded spring of spring constant k and mass m is given by

T= 2π √m/k

With 2π constant and k, it can be seen with little algebra that

T² is proportional to mass m

Hence (T1)²/m1 = (T2) ²/m2

Where T1 = 5, T2 =?, let m1 = m hence m2 = 2m.

By substituting, we have that

5²/m = (T2) ²/2m

25 / m = (T2) ²/2m

25 × 2m = (T2) ² × m

25 × 2 = (T2) ²

50 = (T2) ²

T2 = √50

T2 = 7.07s

Two cars are traveling at the same constant speed v. Car A is moving along a straight section of the road, while B is rounding a
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Car A is not accelerating, but car B is accelerating

Explanation:

Car A is not accelerating because , it is moving with uniform speed in a particular direction . Therefore its velocity too is not changing .

But car B is accelerating because , though its speed is uniform but its velocity is changing due to change in direction . On a circular path , direction of speed changes every moment . Therefore it has an acceleration called centripetal acceleration . Hence car B has acceleration.

If a quantity of heat equal to the magnitude of the change in mechanical energy of the water goes into the water, what is its in
Flauer [41]
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C
Explanation:
Change in mechanical energy = Potential energy
Potential energy = mgh
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
Height, h = 225 m
Potential energy = 1 x 9.81 x 225 = 2207.25 J
Because of this 2207.25 J water gets heated.
Heat energy, E = mcΔT
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg/C
Energy, E = 2207.25 J
Change in temperature, ΔT = ?
Substituting
2207.25 = 1 x 4200 x ΔT
ΔT = 0.53 °C
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C

lapo4ka [179]
An Energy Transfer Diagram is also known as Sankey diagram and this shows the input energy taken in and the transformation of the output energy in another form. Therefore the basis for analyzing an energy transfer diagram would be the sum of all outputs must equal the input. Therefore, it is the third option. Hope this answer helps.
