Answer:

7.08 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Length of scale (x) = 11.0 cm = 0.110 m [1 cm = 0.01 m]

Range of scale is from 0 to 200 N.

Frequency of oscillation of fish (f) = 2.55 Hz

Mass of the fish (m) = ?

Now, range of scale is from 0 to 200 N. So, maximum force, the spring can hold is 200 N. For this maximum force, the extension in the spring is equal to the length of the scale. So, x = 0.11\ m

Now, we know that, spring force is given as:

F=kx\\\\k=\frac{F}{x}

Where, 'k' is spring constant.

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'k'. This gives,

k=\frac{200\ N}{0.11\ m}=1818.18\ N/m

Now, the oscillation of the fish represents simple harmonic motion as it is attached to the spring.

So, the frequency of oscillation is given as:

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

Squaring both sides and expressing it in terms of 'm', we get:

\frac{k}{m}=4\pi^2f^2\\\\m=\dfrac{k}{4\pi^2f^2}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'm'. This gives,

m=\frac{1818.18\ N/m}{4\pi^2\times (2.55\ Hz)^2}\\\\m=\frac{1818.18\ N/m}{256.708\ Hz^2}\\\\m=7.08\ kg

Therefore, the mass of the fish is 7.08 kg.

german

Answer:

E=hf

Were, h = Planck constant 6.67*10^11

E=3.8*10^24 * 6.67*10^11= 2.508*q0^36j

In the diagram, the arrow shows the movement of electric charges through a wire connected to a battery.
solong [7]

Due to difference in electric potential.

<h3>What is Potential difference?</h3>

The amount of work in an electrical field to move a unit charge from one place to another is known as the electrical potential difference.

Here , the potential difference is the difference in electric potential between two charged substances.

Current is the flow of charges from one end end to another end of a conducting wire connected across a two terminals of a battery.

The potential difference is [provided by the battery across the two terminals due which the charges flow.

Current flow is from positive to negative terminals, indicating the movement of positive charges in that direction.

Hence , potential difference causes the electric charges to flow from one end of the battery .

How does temperature affect chemical reaction​
Elis [28]
When its temperature increases, the reactants have more kinetic energy so the frequency of effective collision increases, resulting in a faster rate of chemical reaction.

What is one standard kilogramun si system<br><br><br><br><br>​
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The kilogram (kg) is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.62607015 ×10−34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m2 s−1, where the meter and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆νCs.
