6 0

Answer:

0.26086 Hz

Explanation:

solution:

The relative speed of the wave is:

v = 4.9+1.1 = 6 m/s

the frequency is:

f = v/λ

= 6/23

= 0.26086 Hz

Results of attitude research with twins has revealed

Tamiku [17]

Answer and explanation;

According to twin studies attitudes may be genetically based, research has supported that Identical twins are more likely to share similar attitudes. Attitudes change as the result of behavior and not the other way around

Genetic factors may influence general dispositions and condition-ability that may influence formation of more specific attitudes. Controlled twin studies in US and Sweden reveal that identical twins share more similar attitudes than fraternal twins.

In 1610, galileo used his telescope to discover four prominent moons around jupiter. their mean orbital radii a and periods t ar

katrin2010 [14]

Time period of any moon of Jupiter is given by

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}$

from above formula we can say that mass of Jupiter is given by

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

now for part a)

$r = 4.22 * 10^8 m$

T = 1.77 day = 152928 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (4.22 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(152928)^2}$

$M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg$

Part B)

$r = 6.71 * 10^8 m$

T = 3.55 day = 306720 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (6.71 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(306720)^2}$

$M = 1.9* 10^{27} kg$

Part c)

$r = 10.7 * 10^8 m$

T = 7.16 day = 618624 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (10.7 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(618624)^2}$

$M = 1.89* 10^{27} kg$

PART D)

$r = 18.8 * 10^8 m$

T = 16.7 day = 1442880 seconds

now by above formula

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 r^3}{GT^2}$

$M = \frac{4 \pi^2 (18.8 * 10^8)^3}{(6.67 * 10^{-11})(1442880)^2}$

$M = 1.889* 10^{27} kg$

If the work done to stretch an ideal spring by 4.0 cm is 6.0 j, what is the spring constant (force constant) of this spring?

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The spring constant is 3750 N/m

Explanation:

Use the following two relationships:

(Work) = (Force) x (Displacement)

(Force) = (Spring constant) x (Displacement)

=>

(Spring constant) = (Force) / (Displacement) = (Work) / (Displacement)^2

(Spring constant) = 6.0 kg.(m^2/s^2) / 0.0016 m^2 = 3750 N/m

The spring constant is 3750 N/m
