Two different simple harmonic oscillators have the same natural frequency (f=8.80 Hz) when they are on the surface of the Earth.

The first oscillator is a vertical spring and mass, the second is a pendulum. If both systems are moved to the surface of the moon (g=1.67 m/s2), what is the new frequency of the vertical spring and mass?

Answer:

8.80 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a loaded spring is given by

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

where k and m are the spring constant and the mass of the load respectively. The values of these do not change because they are internal properties of the components of the system.

Hence, the frequency of the vertical spring mass does not change and is 8.80 Hz.

On the other hand, the frequency of the simple pendulum is affected because it is given by

\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}

where g and l are acceleration due to gravity and length of the pendulum, respectively. It is thus seen that it depends on g, which changes with location. In fact, the new frequency is given by

f_2 = 8.80\sqrt{\dfrac{1.67}{9.81}}=3.63 \text{ Hz}

Which describes the greenhouse effect? 1. Earth continues to get warmer over time because it is slowly moving closer to the sun.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).

Explanation:

The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.

When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.

The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.

For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:

--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),

--> Water vapor (H2O), and

--> Methane (CH4)

Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at
Maru [420]
Well you of course have different kinetic energies with the two speeds.
Kinetic energy = (1/2)*mass*velocity^2
The vehicle's mass is the same in both cases, so we can ignore that as well as 1/2 since it's a constant.
So we have (30)^2 vs (60^2)
which is 900 vs 3600
So having 60 mph compared to 30 mph is 4 times the kinetic energy.
