An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.55 kg1.55 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance ????=0.0

855 md=0.0855 m from its original length when it reaches equilibrium. The mass is then lifted up a distance ????=0.0235 mL=0.0235 m from the equilibrium position and released. What is the kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position?

Answer: 0.048 J

Explanation:

The described situation is better understood with the attached figure.

Let's assume that when the mass is released after being lifted up, it starts performing simple harmonic motion with an amplitude L. Then, the maximum speed V of this hanging mass is fulfilled at the equilibrium position and its given by the following equation:

V=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}L (1)

Where:

k is the spring constant which can be calculated by the Hooke's law: k=\frac{F}{d}=\frac{mg}{d} being g=9.8 m/s^{2} the acceleration due gravity and d=0.0855 m the length the spring is streched.

m=1.55 kg is the mass

L=0.0235 m is the amplitude

So, k=\frac{(1.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})}{0.0855 m}=177.66 N/m (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

V=\sqrt{\frac{177.66 N/m}{1.55 kg}}0.0235 m (3)

V=0.251 m/s (4)

On the other hand, the kinetic energy K is given by the following equation:

K=\frac{1}{2}mV^{2} (5)

K=\frac{1}{2}(1.55 kg)(0.251 m/s)^{2} (6)

Hence:

K=0.048 J

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The path difference between the two waves should be one-half of a wavelength

Explanation:

When two beams of coherent light travel different paths, arriving at point P. If the maximum destructive interference is to occur at point P , then the condition for it is that the path difference of two beams must be odd multiple of half wavelength. Symbolically

path difference = ( 2n+1 ) λ / 2

So path difference may be λ/2 , 3λ/ 2,  5λ/ 2 etc .

Hence right option is

The path difference between the two waves should be one-half of a wavelength.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

the volume that has 1.0m^2 of water from the surface of the lake is 4.3

Explanation:

The computation of the volume is as follows;

The Bulk modulus is

= K = 2.3 × 10^9 Pa

K = - V dP ÷ dV

dV = - V dP ÷ K

dV = - (1 × 101.3 × 1000) ÷  2.3 × 10^9

= - 4.3 × 10^-3 m^3

So the volume that has 1.0m^2 of water from the surface of the lake is 4.3

Hence the same is relevant and considered

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

1.2 seconds

Explanation:

Answer to the following question is 1.2 seconds

Because light from the moon takes 1.2 seconds to reach Earth, the light released from the crescent immediately before it vanishes will also take 1.2 seconds to reach Earth. As a result, the earth-shine portion of the moon will vanish 1.2 seconds after the crescent has vanished.

The density of water is 1.0 gram per milliliter at 4 degrees Celsius.
Mazyrski [523]

Sugar molecules present at the bottom of solution due to more mass.

<h3>Which is more denser water or sugar?</h3>

Table sugar is more dense than water due to the presence of more mass of sugar molecule as compared to water. We know that denser objects has more mass so that's why sugar molecules present at the bottom of solution due to more mass.
