The answer is c. as an object is in motion speeds up or “becomes heavier”, it’s kinetic energy increases proportionally: double the velocity and you quadruple the kinetic energy. this is why a tiny bullet traveling at high speed does so much more damage than a huge truck bumping into something at 1 mph. so the answer is c

A block on a horizontal frictionless plane is attached to a spring, as shown below. The block oscillates along the x-axis with s
AleksandrR [38]

The question is about unclear since no picture provided. But from the question, it could be guessed that the box is moving back and forth on the frictionless plane at the amplitude of A in simple harmonic motion.

Answer:

D. At x=0, it's acceleration is at a maximum

Explanation:

As the box move forward, it reaches point A and than move backward. Theoretically, the box will move backwards, through its origin, to point -A and then going forward.

Point A is the maximum displacement of the box in this case. At this point, the box instantaneously stop to go backward. Therefore the velocity at that moment is zero.

From point -A, the box travel forward and keep building up speed due to the release in potential energy of the spring. And at point x=0, the velocity become maximum. After point x=0, the velocity of the box slows down due to the conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy of the spring. And as it reaches point A, it reaches zero velocity.

The same can be said as the box travels backward from point A to -A

Astronomers have observed a small, massive object at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. A ring of material orbits this massive
Setler [38]

Answer:

The mass of the massive object at the center of the Milky Way galaxy is 3.44\times10^{37}\ Kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 10 light year

Orbital speed = 180 km/s

Suppose determine the mass of the massive object at the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

Take the distance of one light year to be 9.461×10¹⁵ m. I was able to get this it is 4.26×10³⁷ kg.

We need to calculate the radius of the orbit

Using formula of radius

r=\dfrac{d}{2}

r=\dfrac{15\times9.461\times10^{15}}{2}

r=7.09\times10^{16}\ m

We need to calculate the mass of the massive object at the center of the Milky Way galaxy

Using formula of mass

M=\dfrac{v^2r}{G}

Put the value into the formula

M=\dfrac{(180\times10^3)^2\times7.09\times10^{16}}{6.67\times10^{-11}}

M=3.44\times10^{37}\ Kg

Hence, The mass of the massive object at the center of the Milky Way galaxy is 3.44\times10^{37}\ Kg
