Using the second Law of Newton, F = m * a, you know that acceleration is maximum when the force is maximum.
Using Hooke's Law, F = K Δx, you know that the force is maximum when the displacement from the equilibrium (Δx) is maximum.
So the answer is that the acceleration is maximum at the maximum amplitude x = a.
Answer:
Scientific investigation is a quest to find the answer to a question using the scientific method. In turn, the scientific method is a systematic process that involves using measurable observations to formulate, test or modify a hypothesis.
Explanation:
Answer:
The force constant is 
The energy stored in the spring is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the object is 
The period is 
The period of the spring oscillation is mathematically represented as

where k is the force constant
So making k the subject

substituting values


The energy stored in the spring is mathematically represented as

Where x is the spring displacement which is given as

substituting values


Answer:
Explanation:
a )
momentum of baseball before collision
mass x velocity
= .145 x 30.5
= 4.4225 kg m /s
momentum of brick after collision
= 5.75 x 1.1
= 6.325 kg m/s
Applying conservation of momentum
4.4225 + 0 = .145 x v + 6.325 , v is velocity of baseball after collision.
v = - 13.12 m / s
b )
kinetic energy of baseball before collision = 1/2 mv²
= .5 x .145 x 30.5²
= 67.44 J
Total kinetic energy before collision = 67.44 J
c )
kinetic energy of baseball after collision = 1/2 x .145 x 13.12²
= 12.48 J .
kinetic energy of brick after collision
= .5 x 5.75 x 1.1²
= 3.48 J
Total kinetic energy after collision
= 15.96 J
Since, the options are not given the question is incomplete the complete question is as follows.:
Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?
provide a diverse habitat for many organisms
experience changes in amounts of dissolved salts
store and transport the Sun's heat energy
reach depths that can be as much as 12000 meters
Answer: Store and transport the Sun's heat energy.
Explanation:
Oceanic currents are just like a conveyor belt. It helps in transportation of the warm water and the precipitation from the equator to the poles and the cold water in the poles towards the tropics. This way the oceans counteract the uneven distribution of the radiation of sun that reaches upto the surface earth. This will regulate the global climate.
