The mass on the spring is 0.86 kg

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is given by the equation

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

where

m is the mass

k is the spring constant

In this problem, we have:

k = 88.7 N/m is the spring constant

The system makes 15 oscillations in 9.24 s: therefore, the period of the system is

$T=\frac{9.24}{15}=0.62 s$

Now we can re-arrange the first equation to solve for the mass:

$m=k(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2=(88.7)(\frac{0.62}{2\pi})^2=0.86 kg$

A) an electron has an initial speed of 226000 m/s. if it undergoes an acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2, how long will it take to

KIM [24]

initial speed of 226000 m/s

acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2,

speed of 781000 m/s

What is Acceleration?

Acceleration is a rate of change of velocity with respect to time with respect to direction and speed.

A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down.

Acceleration formula can be written as,

a = (v - u ) / t m/s²

As we have to find the time taken, the formula can be altered as,

$t = \frac{v-u}{a}$

where, t - time taken to reach a final speed

v - final velocity

u - initial velocity

a - acceleration.

Substituting all the given values,

$t =\frac{781000 - 226000} {4* 1014}$

= 1.3875 × 10⁻⁹ seconds.

So, taken to reach the final speed is found to be 1.3 × 10⁻⁹ 8iH..

A 2800 kg truck moving at 12 m/s to the right hits a stopped 1100 kg car. What is the combined velocity the moment they stick to

leva [86]

Answer:

The combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a truck, m = 2800 kg

Initial speed of truck, u = 12 m/s

The mass of a car, m' = 1100 kg

Initial speed of the car, u' = 0

We need to find the combined velocity the moment they stick together. Let it is V. Using the conservation of momentum.

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{2800\times 12+0}{2800+1100}\\\\V=8.61\ m/s$

So, the combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.

Mercury, a planet in our Solar System, and Callisto, a moon of the planet Jupiter, are about the same size. However, Mercury’s m

You may jump higher because the more the mass of the planet, the more gravitational force. There is less mass(and gravity) on Callisto so you wouldn’t be weighed down as much and can jump higher. Whereas on Jupiter there is more weight holding you down.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Explanation:

Question 1

1.The wires are made of conducting materials e.g copper

2. A light bulb is made of filament material e.g tungsten with gases enclosed in a glass material

3.The lens is made of transparent glass material

4 The reflector is made of plastic with silver lining

5. The exterior casing of most flash lights are made of plastic

Question 2.

1.Copper is used to conduct electric current from the battery to the bulb

2.The tungsten filament ignite the gases and causes it to glow

3. The lens covers the lamp on your flashlight so that the glass on the lamp

/bulbs does not get broken.

4.The reflector redirects the light rays from the lamp, creating a steady beam of light, which is the light you see emitting from the flashlight.

5. The exterior cases houses the entire assembly and makes the flash light handy for use
