Describe a scientific method
laila [671]

The process of <u>scientific method</u> involves making hypotheses , driving predictions from them as logical consequences , and then carrying out experiments or empirical observations based on those predictions. A hypotheses is a conjecture , based on knowledge obtained while seeking  answers to the questions.

A 2.40 kg ball is attached to an unknown spring and allowed to oscillate. The figure below shows a graph of the ball’s position
irga5000 [103]

(a) The period of the oscillation is 0.8 s.

(b) The frequency of the oscillation is 1.25 Hz.

(c) The angular frequency of the oscillation is 7.885 rad/s.

(d) The amplitude of the oscillation is 3 cm.

(e) The force constant of the spring is 148.1 N/m.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the ball, m = 2.4 kg</em>

<em />

From the given graph, we can determine the missing parameters.

The amplitude of the wave is the maximum displacement, A = 3 cm

The period of the oscillation is the time taken to make one complete cycle.

T = 0.8 s

The frequency of the oscillation is calculated as follows;

f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f = \frac{1 }{0.8} \\\\f = 1.25 \ Hz

The angular frequency of the oscillation is calculated as follows;

\omega = 2\pi f\\\\\omega = 2\pi \times 1.25\\\\\omega = 7.855 \ rad/s

The force constant of the spring is calculated as follows;

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega ^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\ k = \omega ^2 m\\\\k = (7.855)^2 \times 2.4\\\\k = 148.1 \ N/m

A wooden walkway and a sandy beach are at the same temperature. the sand feels much hotter because it has a greater _____.
Svetlanka [38]
Specific heat capacity.

As it has a greater specific capacity than wood, it takes more heat energy to increase it's temperature by 1 degree Celsius than that of wood. Hence, though both are at the same temperature, sand contains way more heat than wood.

A motorbike is travelling with a velocity of 3m/s. It accelerates at a rate of 9.3m/s for 1.8s. Calculate the distance it travel
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Consider the kinematic equation,

x  = vt +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

where x is the distance traveled, v is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is time. By plugging in known values and solving for x,

x = 3(1.8) +  \frac{1}{2} (9.3) {1.8}^{2}

through simple algebra we get

x = 20.466

where this is the distance traveled in meters.
