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

daser333 [38]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1.86 N and the direction of force is towards the other wire.

Explanation:

Given:

Current flowing through each power line, I = 130 A

Distance between the two power lines, d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Length of power lines, L = 220 m

The force exerted by the power lines on each other is given by the relation:

F = \frac{\mu_{0}LII }{2\pi d}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F = \frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times220\times130\times130 }{2\pi\times0.4}

F = 1.86 N

Since the direction of current flowing through the power lines are opposite to each other, so the force is attractive in nature. Hence, the direction of force experienced by the power lines on each other is towards the each other.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The speed will be "18km/s". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question, the values are:

Wavelength,

\lambda = 656.46 \ nm

\Delta \lambda = 0.04

c=3\times 10^8

As we know,

⇒  \frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{v}{c}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒  \frac{656.46}{0.04} =\frac{v}{3\times 10^8}

⇒         v=\frac{656.46}{0.04} (3\times 10^8)

⇒            =16411.5\times 3\times 10^8

⇒            =18280 \ m/s

or,

⇒            =18 \ km/s

PLEASE HELP!!!
anastassius [24]
Answer: 0 km/h

Explanation:
As a vector, the plane's velocity is 100 km/h (west) - 100 km/h (east)  = 0 km/m.
To an observer on the ground, the plane will be standing still.
