Answer:
109.32 N/m
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of the hung object, m = 8 kg
Period of oscillation of object, T = 1.7 s
Force constant, k = ?
Recall that the period of oscillation of a Simple Harmonic Motion is given as
T = 2π √(m/k), where
T = period of oscillation
m = mass of object and
k = force constant if the spring
Since we are looking for the force constant, if we make "k" the subject of the formula, we have
k = 4π²m / T², now we go ahead to substitute our given values from the question
k = (4 * π² * 8) / 1.7²
k = 315.91 / 2.89
k = 109.32 N/m
Therefore, the force constant of the spring is 109.32 N/m
The amount of electric charge that resides on each capacitor once it is fully charged is 0.37 C.
<h3>
Total capacitance of the circuit</h3>
The total capacitance of the circuit is calculated as follows;
Capacitors in series;
1/Ct = 1/8 + 1/7.5
1/Ct = 0.25833
Ct = 3.87 mF
Capacitors is parallel;
Ct = 3.87 mF + 12 mF + 15 mF
Ct = 30.87 mF
Ct = 0.03087 F
<h3>Charge in each capacitor</h3>
Q = CV
Q = 0.03087 x 12
Q = 0.37 C
Thus, the amount of electric charge that resides on each capacitor once it is fully charged is 0.37 C.

Answer:
860.6 years.
Explanation:
The parameters given are;
Initial detector activity = 370000 alpha decays per second
Final detector activity = 93000 alpha decays per second
Formula for time to change in activity is given by the following relation;
t₉₃₀₀₀ = 2.72 × 10¹⁰ seconds = 860.6 years.
