To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the frequency in a spring, the conservation of energy and the total mechanical energy in the body (kinetic or potential as the case may be)

PART A) By definition the frequency in a spring is given by the equation

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

Where,

m = mass

k = spring constant

Our values are,

k=1700N/m

m=5.3 kg

Replacing,

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{1700}{5.3}}

f=2.85 Hz

PART B) To solve this section it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy both potential (simple harmonic) and kinetic in the spring.

\frac{1}{2}kA^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} kY^2

Where,

k = Spring constant

m = mass

y = Vertical compression

v = Velocity

This expression is equivalent to,

kA^2 =mV^2 +ky^2

Our values are given as,

k=1700 N/m

V=1.70 m/s

y=0.045m

m=5.3 kg

Replacing we have,

1700*A^2=5.3*1.7^2 +1700*(0.045)^2

Solving for A,

A^2 = \frac{5.3*1.7^2 +1700*(0.045)^2}{1700}

A ^2 = 0.011035

A=0.105 m \approx 10.5 cm

PART C) Finally, the total mechanical energy is given by the equation

E = \frac{1}{2}kA^2

E=\frac{1}{2}1700*(0.105)^2

E= 9.3712 J

How would you find the speed of a person who walked
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.

1. Calculate the total heat content of 10 kg of ice at -23°C.?
vesna_86 [32]

To solve the problem, we must know the heat capacity of ice and water.

For Cp = 2090 J/kg C

H = mCpT

H = (10 kg) ( 2090 J/ Kg C) ( -23 C)

H = - 480700 J

For water Cp = 4180 j/kg C

H = (100 kg) ( 4180 J/kg C) ( 60 C)

<span>H = 2508000 J</span>

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

0° FROM or 180° TO

Explanation:

A course deviation indicator or the CDI may be defined as an avionics tool or instrument that is used in the aircraft navigation which is used to determine an aircraft's lateral position with relation to a course.

While using the VOT service, we should tune the VOT frequency of the VOR receiver. And with the CDI leveled centered, the omnibearing selector or the OBS should read as 0° with the TO/FROM indicator showing 'FROM'. Else the OBS should read as 180° with the TO/FROM indication showing 'TO.'

Air flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called
vovangra [49]

Adhesive.

Adhesive is the force of attraction between molecules of different kind. Liquid flows upward the wick because the adhesive force between the wick and the liquid is higher than cohesive forces in the liquid.

When the adhesive  force  between the wick and the liquid is high we have capillarity taking place. This cause the liquid to move up the wick.
