A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is

the period if the amplitude of the motion is doubled
Physics

Answer:

<em>The period of the motion will still be equal to T.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, <em>increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.</em>

If you are driving 128.4 km/h along a straight road and you look down for 3.0s, how far do you travel during this inattentive pe
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

107 m

Explanation:

Convert km/h to m/s:

128.4 km/h × (1000 m / km) × (1 h / 3600 s) = 35.67 m/s

Distance = rate × time

d = 35.67 m/s × 3.0 s

d = 107 m

Which statement best describes why an island's food web could be considered a closed system?
garik1379 [7]
I would say Option B) because Option C) is wrong since matter cannot be created. A closed system does not exchange matter so it's not Option D). Since an island is an isolated area, Option A) is wrong.

A bag of ice cubes absorbs 149,000 J of heat, which causes its temperature to increase by 5.23 degrees celsius. what is the mass
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

14.3kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Quantity of heat = 149000J

Change in temperature = 5.23°C

specific heat of the ice = 2000J/kg°C

Unknown:

Mass of the ice in the bag = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a substance is given as:

            H = m c Ф

H is the heat capacity

m is the mass

c is the specific heat

Ф is the temperature change;

  since m is the unknown, we make it the subject of the expression;

                    m = H/ mФ

                  m = \frac{149000}{2000 x 5.23}  = 14.3kg

Astronomers have found water on mars.
vodomira [7]

The thin atmosphere of Mars is thought to be due to the planet's lack of a magnetic field, which has allowed the Solar wind to blow away much of the gas the planet once had. Venus, despite still having a thick atmosphere of CO2, surprisingly has a similar problem
