A block with mass m =7.4 kg is hung from a vertical spring. when the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.22 m.

while at this equilibrium position, the mass is then given an initial push downward at v = 3.8 m/s. the block oscillates on the spring without friction. 1 what is the spring constant of the spring?

This is given by F=kx.  Since a force due to gravity is given by F=mg this is F=7.4kg*9.81m/s^2 = 72.594N.  Put this force into the spring equation above and get 72.594N = k*0.22m.  Solve for k to get 329.97N/m

Find the magnitude of the angular momentum of the second hand on a clock about an axis through the center of the clock face. Ass
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

L = 4.711 *10^{-6} kg m2/s

Explanation:

i =\frac{ml^3}{3}

= \frac{0.00*.15^2}{3}

   =4.5*10^-5

angular velocity

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{60}

             = 0.1047 rad/s

the angular momentum,

L = I\omega

L = 4.5*10^{-5}* 0.1047 rad/s

L = 4.711 *10^{-6} kg m2/s

Which transformation of energy occurs when a fan is turned on and the blades start to rotate?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

kinetic energy

Explanation:

A wind turbine transforms the mechanical energy of wind into electrical energy. A turbine takes the kinetic energy of a moving fluid, air in this case, and converts it to a rotary motion. As wind moves past the blades of a wind turbine, it moves or rotates the blades. These blades turn a generator

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 134 neutrons are there in the nucleus of Radon-220

Explanation:

Atomic number : It is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons present in a neutral atom.

Thus, number of protons = atomic number = 86

Mass number is the number of the entities present in the nucleus which is the equal to the sum of the number of protons and electrons.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

220 = 86 + Number of neutrons

Number of neutrons = 134

• ¿Qué rapidez tendrá un sonido de 150 Hz con una longitud de onda de 2 metros?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Speed = 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 150 Hz

Wavelength = 2 meters

To find the speed of the wave;

Mathematically, the speed of a wave is given by the formula:

Speed = wavelength * frequency

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Speed = 2 * 150

Speed = 300 m/s
