Explanation:

The Earth acts as a huge bar magnet. Magnetic field surrounds the Earth. when the charged particles coming from the sun interact with the magnetic field, beautiful colors can be seen in the sky. These are known as auroras. The color depends upon the gas present in the atmosphere. The electrons of gain energy and jump to higher level and then release photons when return back to its level.

Neko [114]

Answer:

the time at which it passes through the equilibrum position is:

t = 0.1 second

Explanation:

given

w= 4pounds

k(spring constant) = 2lb/ft

g(gravitational constant) = 10m/s² = 32ft/s²

β(initial point above equilibrum) = 1

velocity = 14ft/s

attached is an image showing the calculations, because some of the parameters aren't convenient to type.
