The weight of an object is taken to be the force on the object due to gravity. The weight ( W ) is the product of the mass ( m ) of the object and the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration ( g ).
On Earth: g = 9.81 m/s²
m = 20 kg
W = m · g = 20 kg · 9.81 m/s² = 196.2 N
Answer:
Please find the answer in the explanation
Explanation:
1.) How far is Object Z from the origin at t = 3 seconds
The distance of the object Z from the origin will be the slope of the graph.
Slope = 4/2 = 2m
2.) Which object takes the least time to reach a position 4 meters from the origin ?
According to the graph given to the question above, object Z has the list time which is 2 seconds since object X does not start from the origin.
3.) Which object is farthest from the origin at t = 2 seconds?
The correct answer is still object Z because it has the highest slope.
Answer:
The time constant is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The spring constant is 
The mass of the ball is 
The amplitude of the oscillation t the beginning is 
The amplitude after time t is 
The number of oscillation is 
Generally the time taken to attain the second amplitude is mathematically represented as
Here T is the period of oscillation

=> 
=> 
Generally the amplitude at time t is mathematically represented as

Here a is the damping constant so
at
, 
So

=> 
taking natural log of both sides
=>
=> 
Generally the time constant is mathematically represented as
=>
=>
The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together
