Answer:

k = 46.67 N/m

Explanation:

given,

mass, m = 0.10 Kg

Length, x = 2.1 cm = 0.021 m

spring constant, k = ?

we know,

spring force

F = k x

and also

F = m g

computing both the equation

k x = m g

k = \dfrac{mg}{x}

k = \dfrac{0.1\times 9.8}{0.021}

k = 46.67 N/m

Spring constant for the spring is equal to k = 46.67 N/m

Answer:

46.67 N/m

Explanation:

mass, m = 0.1 kg

distance, y = 2.1 cm = 0.021 m

Let K be the spring constant.

F = mg = Ky

0.1 x 9.8 = K x 0.021

K = 46.67 N/m

Thus, the spring constant of the spring is 46.67 N/m.

Using kinematic equation, v^2 - u^2 = 2as. 5^2 - 3^2 = 2a x 16. a = 0.5m/s^2. So particle will deaccelerate at 0.5m/s^2. ( v = final velocity, u= initial velocity, a= acceleration, s= displacement.)

If 8.65 g of a tin - fluorine compound contains 5.28 g of tin, what is its empirical formula?
allsm [11]
First, we need to know the amounts of the elements in the compound.

Tin (Sn)= 5.28 g
Fluorine (F) = 8.65 - 5.28 = 3.37 g

Convert these to units of moles by dividing the molar masses.

Tin (Sn)= 5.28 g / 118.71 g/mol = 0.044 mol
Fluorine (F) = 3.37 g / 19.00 g/mol = 0.177 mol

Divide both by the least number of moles of the two.


Tin (Sn)= 0.044 mol /  0.044 mol = 1
Fluorine (F) =  0.177 mol / 0.044 mol = 4

Therefore, the empirical formula would be:

A 512Hz tuning fork is used with a resonating column to determine the velocity of sound in water. If the spacing between resonan
EastWind [94]

Answer:

v= 1495.04 m/s

Explanation:

The formula for velocity of sound is given by ;

v= fλ   --------where

v= velocity of sound

f= frequency of turning fork

λ = wavelength

However,

Δ L = 1/2 λ   ------where Δ L is spacing between resonances.

1.46 = 1/2 λ

1.46 * 2 = λ

2.92 m = λ

v= fλ

v= 512 * 2.92

v= 1495.04 m/s

The 300 m diameter Arecibo radio telescope is observing the Andromeda galaxy at a wavelength of 29 cm. show answer No Attempt 50
jekas [21]

Answer:

The angle between two just-resolvable stars for the Arecibo telescope is 1.179x10^{-3}rad.

Explanation:

The resulting image in a telescope obtained from an object is a diffraction pattern.

That diffraction pattern is obtained because the light encounters different obstacles on its path inside the telescope (interact with the walls and edges of the instrument).

The diffraction pattern is composed by a central disk, called Airy disk, and diffraction rings.    

 

The angular resolution is defined as the minimal separation at which two sources can be resolved one for another, or in other words, when the distance between the two diffraction patterns maxima is greater than the radius of the Airy disk.

The angular resolution can be determined in an analytical way by means of the Rayleigh criterion.          

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}   (1)

Where \lambda is the wavelength and D is the diameter of the telescope.

Notice that it is necessary to express the wavelength in the same units than the diameter.

\lambda = 29cm \cdot \frac{1m}{100cm} ⇒ 0.29m

Finally, equation 1 can be used.

\theta = 1.22(\frac{0.29m}{300m})

\theta = 1.179x10^{-3}rad              

Hence, the angle between two just-resolvable stars for the Arecibo telescope is 1.179x10^{-3}rad

The impact time for a particular collision is 3.0 x 10^-3 seconds and the impulse in the collision is 0.30 newton seconds. What
BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer</u>

C.) 1.0 x 10^2 Newton’s


<u>Explanation</u>

The Newton's second law of motion states that, the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force producing it.

∴ F = (mv- mu)/t

  Ft = mv - mu.

The quantity Ft is called the  impulse.

Ft =  0.30 Newton seconds

but t = 3.0 x 10⁻³ seconds

Ft =  0.30 Ns

F × 3.0 x 10⁻³ =  0.30 Ns

F =  0.30 / (3.0 x 10⁻³)

  = 100 N

  Answer =  C.) 1.0 x 10^2 Newton’s
