A mass of 30.0 grams hangs at rest from the lower end of a long vertical spring. You add different amounts of additional mass ΔM

to the end of the spring and measure the increase in length Δl of the spring due to the additional mass. You plot your data in the form Δl (vertical axis) versus ΔM (horizontal axis). Plotted this way, your data lies very close to a straight line that has slope 0.0268 m/kg. What is the force constant k of the spring? Use g = 9.80 m/s2.

Answer:

366N/m

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law:

F=-kx

avoiding the minus symbol and substituting the force to the gravitational force, we have:

m.g=k.x\\k=\frac{m.g}{x}=\frac{m}{x}*g\\k=\frac{1}{s}*g\\k=\frac{1}{0.0268m/kg}*9.80m/s^2\\\\k=366N/m

The spring constant is 366N/m

Answer:

K = 373.13 N/m

Explanation:

The force of the spring is equals to:

Fe - m*g = 0     =>    Fe = m*g

Using Hook's law:

K*X = m*g    Solving for K:

K = m/X * g

In this equation, m/X is the inverse of the given slope. So, using this value we can calculate the spring's constant:

K = 10 / 0.0268 = 373.13N/m

What is the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 hz?
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

T = 0.003 s

(Period is written as T)

Explanation:

Period = time it takes for one wave to pass (measured in seconds)

frequency = number of cycles that occur in 1 second

(measured in Hz / hertz / 1 second)

Period : T

frequency : f

So, if we know that the frequency of a wave is 300 Hz, we can find the period of the wave from the relation between frequency and period

T =  \frac{1}{f}    f = \frac{1}{T}

to find the period (T) of this wave, we need to plug in the frequency (f) of 300

T = \frac{1}{300}

T = 0.00333333333

So, the period of a wave that has a frequency of 300 Hz is 0.003 s

[the period/T of this wave is 0.003 s]

A ball is launched with initial speed v from ground level up a frictionless slope (This means the ball slides up the slope witho
amid [387]

Answer:

hmax = 1/2 · v²/g

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.

KE = PE

Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the ball

v = velocity.

The potential energy is calculated as follows:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of the ball.

g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).

h = height.

At  the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:

PE = KE

m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²

Solving  for hmax:

hmax = 1/2 · v² / g
