Without friction, there will be undamped simple harmonic motion. The force of the spring is proportional to the distance from the equilibrium point. The period of oscillation will be independent of the amplitude.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Answer:

C.Supersaturated

Explanation:

There are three types of solution:

SATURATED SOLUTION:

It is the solution that contains maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solution in normal conditions.

UNSATURATED SOLUTION:

It is the solution that contains less than the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solution in normal conditions. It has space for more solute to be dissolved in it.

SUPERSATURATED SOLUTION:

It contains more than the maximum amount of solute dissolved in it. Such a solution has no capacity to dissolve any more solute under any conditions.

Since the sugar is no more dissolving in the tea and has settled down. Therefore, the solution is:

In this example we see how thermal expansion can actually throw off the accuracy of a length-measuring device—namely, a tape mea

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The new length is 50.00885m

Explanation:

linear thermal expansion coefficient Fe 11.8e-6 /K

The new length can be determined using the following equation:

∆L/L = α∆T, where α is linear thermal expansion coefficient

∆L = Lα∆T = 50(11.8e-6)(35-20) = 0.00885 m

New length = ( 50.000 + 0.00885)m =

New length = 50.00885 m

A house is lifted from its foundations onto a truck for relocation. The house is pulled upward by a net force of 2850 N. This fo

Gwar [14]

Answer:

m = 95000 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the house, F = 2850 N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 15 cm/s = 0.15 m/s

We need to find the mass of the house. Let the mass be m. We know that the net force is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration of the house.

So,

$F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2850\times 5}{(0.15-0)}\\\\m=95000\ kg$

So, the mass of the house is equal to 95000 kg.

What is cosmic microwave background radiation?

chubhunter [2.5K]

Cosmic, or background, radiation is the small amount of high energy radiation which is mostly left over from the big bang or from supernovas. It is mostly single protons, but also alpha particles and even sometimes heavier elements. It can also refer to the low levels of electromagnetic radiation present all over the universe.

A thin glass rod is submerged in oil. What is the critical angle for light traveling inside the rod? The index of refraction for

Alekssandra [29.7K]

When light travels from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle of incidence above which light is reflected only (no refraction occurs), and the value of this critical angle is given by
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n2 is the refractive index of the second medium and n1 is the refractive index of the first medium.

In this problem, the first medium is the glass ( $n_1 = 1.50$ ), while the second medium is oil ( $n_2 =1.46$ ), therefore the critical angle is given by
$\theta_c = \arcsin( \frac{1.46}{1.50} )=\arcsin(0.973)=76.7^{\circ}$
