Answer:

mass of the fish is 8.11 kg

Explanation:

As we know that the frequency of oscillation of spring block system is given as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

here we know that the reading of scale varies from 0 to 155 N from length varies from x = 0 to x = 10 cm

Now we have

k = \frac{155}{0.10} N/m

k = 1550 N/m

so now we have

2.20 = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{1550}{m}}

m = 8.11 kg

so mass of the fish is 8.11 kg

Vlada [557]

Answer:

T = 3.23 s

Explanation:

In the simple harmonic movement of a spring with a mass the angular velocity is given by

               w = √ K / m

With the initial data let's look for the ratio k / m

The angular velocity is related to the frequency and period

           w = 2π f = 2π / T

            2π / T = √ k / m

            k₀ / m₀ = (2π / T)²

            k₀ / m₀ = (2π / 3.0)²

            k₀ / m₀ = 4.3865

The period on the new planet is

          2π / T = √ k / m

           T = 2π √ m / k

In this case the amounts are

           m = 6 m₀

           k = 10 k₀

We replace

            T = 2π√6m₀ / 10k₀

            T = 2π √6/10 √m₀ / k₀

            T = 2π √ 0.6  √1 / 4.3865

            T = 3.23 s

An ore car of mass 39000 kg starts from rest and rolls downhill on tracks from a mine. At the end of the tracks, 19 m lower vert
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.                

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m = 39000 kg

Height of the car, h = 19 m

Spring constant of the spring, k=4.2\times 10^5\ N/m

We need to find the compression in the spring in stopping the ore car. It can be done by balancing loss in gravitational potential energy and the increase in elastic energy. So,

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

x is the compression in spring

x=\sqrt{\dfrac{2mgh}{k}} \\\\x=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 39000\times 19\times 9.8}{4.2\times 10^5}} \\\\x=5.88\ m

So, the compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.

What is the frequency of a wave that has a wavelength of 0.39 m and a speed
gogolik [260]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option B</h3>

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave can be found by using the formula

f =  \frac{c}{ \lambda}  \\

where

c is the velocity

From the question

wavelength = 0.39 m

c = 86 m/s

We have

f =  \frac{86}{0.39}  \\  = 220.512820...

We have the final answer as

<h3>200 Hz</h3>

Hope this helps you

A bag of marbles is hanging motionless on a spring scale. What prevents the bag from falling?​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

The vector sum of all forces acting on it is zero, its at equilibrium.

Explanation:

The bag of marbles hanging on a spring scale applies its weight downwards, which was counterbalanced by the reaction from the spring scale (obeying the Newton's third law of motion). And since no external forces are applied to the system, thus the equilibrium of the system.

If the weight of the bag is greater than the reaction from the spring scale, the scale breaks and the system would not be balanced.
