You have a spring with k = 640 N/m connected to a mass with m = 10 kg. You start the system oscillating and measure the velocity

of the mass as it moves through the spring's equilibrium position to be 4 m/s. At what position is the kinetic energy of the system equal to the potential energy?

Answer:

X= 0.5 m

Explanation:

Given that

K= 640 N/m

m=10 kg

v= 4 m/s

We know that

kinetic energy of the mass

KE=1/2 m v²

Potential energy

PE=1/2 k X²

Given that kinetic and potential energy are equal

1/2 k X² = 1/2 m v²

k X² =  m v²

Now by putting the values

640  X² = 10 x 4²

X= 0.5 m

So at 0.5 m  kinetic and potential energy will be equal.

Sound travels through water at a speed of 1500 m/s. If the frequency of a sound is 1000 Hz, what is the wavelength?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

1.5m

Explanation:

Velocity=1500m/s

Frequency=1000hz

Wavelength =velocity ➗ frequency

wavelength =1500 ➗ 1000

Wavelength=1.5m

Why can’t a real machine ever have 100% efficiency
Harman [31]

Answer:

Almost all machines require energy to offset the effects of gravity, friction, and air/wind resistance. Thus, no machine can continually operate at 100 percent efficiency.

1. why did aristarchus choose the time of a half (quarter) moon to make his measurements for calculating the earth-sun distance?
Stells [14]

In order to make his measurements for determining the Earth-Sun distance, Aristarchus waited for the Moon's phase to be exactly half full while the Sun was still visible in the sky. For this reason, he chose the time of a half (quarter) moon.

<h3 /><h3>How did Aristarchus calculate the distance to the Sun?</h3>

It was now possible for another Greek astronomer, Aristarchus, to attempt to determine the Earth's distance from the Sun after learning the distance to the Moon. Aristarchus discovered that the Moon, the Earth, and the Sun formed a right triangle when they were all equally illuminated. Now that he was aware of the distance between the Earth and the Moon, all he needed to know to calculate the Sun's distance was the current angle between the Moon and the Sun. It was a wonderful argument that was weakened by scant evidence. Aristarchus calculated this angle to be 87 degrees using only his eyes, which was not far off from the actual number of 89.83 degrees. But when there are significant distances involved, even slight inaccuracies might suddenly become significant. His outcome was more than a thousand times off.
