if a mass on a spring bobs up nad down completing 2 full cycles every section. WHat are the periouds and frequency of the mass
Alika [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the time taken to complete one full cycle.

Frequency (<em>f</em>) will be calculated first as

<em>f </em>= <em>N </em>÷<em> t</em>

where <em>N </em>is the number of cycles and <em>t </em>is the time taken to complete one full cycle. The unit for frequency is Hertz (Hz).

To calculate the period, <em>T, </em>the formula below will be used

<em>T </em>= 1 ÷ <em>f</em>

The unit for period is secs

A truck driver is broadcasting at a frequency of 27.075 MHz with a CB (citizen's band) radio. Determine the wavelength of the el
Sergio [31]

Answer:

11m

Explanation:

Wavelength of a wave is the distance between successive crests and trough of a wave. It is represented mathematically as the ratio of the speed of the wave to its frequency. It can be expressed as;

Wavelength ¶ = wave speed (v) /frequency (f)

Given the speed of light c = 2.9979 10^8 m/s.

frequency of the radio wave = 27.075 MHz = 27.075×10^6Hz

Wavelength = 2.9979 10^8/27.075×10^6

Wavelength = 0.11×10^2

Wavelength = 11m

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave being used is 11m

Which are causes of mechanical weathering? (check all that apply)
solmaris [256]

The correct answers are:

B. plant growth;

C. animal actions;

The mechanical weathering is a type of weathering where physical force is included into the breaking up of the rocks. The plants and the animals are both causing this type of weathering with their actions. The plants can cause mechanical weathering with their roots, as they grow and surround a rock, they are able to create such a pressure that they can break the rock apart. Also, as their trunks are getting bigger, if there's rocks right next to them, the pressure from the growing of the trunk will crack the rocks. The animals are able to move the rocks, as well as pushing them, or even deliberately throwing them, so they manage to break up parts of them and cause mechanical weathering.

this is a 3 part questionOn vacation, your 1400-kg car pulls a 560-kg trailer away from a stoplight with an acceleration of 1.85
mamaluj [8]

ANSWER:

(a) 1036 N

(b) -1036 N

(c) 2590 N

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given:

Mc = 1400 kg

Mt = 560 kg

a = 1.85 m/s^2

(a)

Force by car on trailer:

\begin{gathered} F_c=m\cdot a \\ F_c=560\cdot1.85 \\ F_c=1036\text{ N} \end{gathered}

(b)

\begin{gathered} F_t=-F_c \\ F_t=-1036\text{ N} \end{gathered}

(c)

\begin{gathered} F_n=1400\cdot1.85 \\ F_n=2590\text{ N} \end{gathered}
