<h2>Answer:Stretched rubber band with an mass</h2>

Explanation:

Simple harmonic motion requires a restoring force.

Simple harmonic motion should be periodic.

Option A:

When a rubber band is stretched,the internal forces of the rubber band pulls the band inside.So,internal forces are the restoring forces in a rubber band.

The motion is periodic as well since the the rubber band makes to an fro motion expanding ans contracting.

So,this performs SHM.

Option B:

There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

So,this is not SHM.

Option C:

There is no restoring force and no periodicity.

So,this is not SHM.

Option D:

There is periodicity but no restoring force.

So,this is not SHM.

1. Calculate the total heat content of 10 kg of ice at -23°C.?

vesna_86 [32]

To solve the problem, we must know the heat capacity of ice and water.

For Cp = 2090 J/kg C

H = mCpT

H = (10 kg) ( 2090 J/ Kg C) ( -23 C)

H = - 480700 J

For water Cp = 4180 j/kg C

H = (100 kg) ( 4180 J/kg C) ( 60 C)

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Mechanical

Explanation:

The tank is at rest. And energy of any substance at rest is known as potential energy.

Now, in forms of energy, potential energy is a type of mechanical energy.

Thus, the correct option is mechanical Energy.

A kangaroo can jump over an object 2.46 m high. (a) Calculate its vertical speed (in m/s) when it leaves the ground.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

a) 6.95 m/s

b) 1.42 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 2.46-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 2.46}\\\Rightarrow u=6.95\ m/s$
