The only 'difference' is that they are different categories.
It's like asking "What's the difference between Susie and girl ?"
Or "What's the difference between Cadillac and car ?"
Displacement <em>IS</em> a vector quantity.
Answer:
Mass remains constant but weight reduces
Explanation:
Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.
Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.
Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.
Answer:
a) t=24s
b) number of oscillations= 11
Explanation:
In case of a damped simple harmonic oscillator the equation of motion is
m(d²x/dt²)+b(dx/dt)+kx=0
Therefore on solving the above differential equation we get,
x(t)=A₀
where A(t)=A₀
A₀ is the amplitude at t=0 and
is the angular frequency of damped SHM, which is given by,
Now coming to the problem,
Given: m=1.2 kg
k=9.8 N/m
b=210 g/s= 0.21 kg/s
A₀=13 cm
a) A(t)=A₀/8
⇒A₀ =A₀/8
⇒
applying logarithm on both sides
⇒
⇒
substituting the values
b)
, where 
is time period of damped SHM
⇒
let 
be number of oscillations made
then, 
⇒
