Explain why the speed of light is lower than<br> 3.0 x 108 m/s as it goes through different media.

jekas [21]

Answer:

Sample Response: In a vacuum, there are no atoms or particles that interfere with the path of light. However, in other media, the speed of light is lower than 3.0 × 108 m/s because the wave is continuously absorbed and re-emitted by each atom in its path. The differences in speed are due to the composition of the medium and the density of the particles in the medium.

the weight of a body is more at polar regions of the earth than that at the equatorial regions? why give reason

ella [17]

Answer:

The weight of an object at the Earth's South Pole is slightly more than its weight at the Equator because the polar radius of the Earth is slightly less than the equatorial radius. Though the mass of an object remains constant, its weight varies according to its location.

An object on a vertical spring oscillates up and down in simple harmonic motion with an angular frequency of 25.7 rad/s. Calcula

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The distance by which the spring stretches is 1.48 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

An object on a vertical spring oscillates up and down in simple harmonic motion with an angular frequency of 25.7 rad/s, $\omega=25.7\ rad/s$

We know that angular frequency in SHM is given by :

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\\omega^2=\dfrac{k}{m}\\\\\dfrac{k}{m}=(25.7)^2.............(1)$

When the object is allowed to hang stationary from it, the force due to spring is balanced by its weight. Such that :

$kd=mg\\\\d=\dfrac{g}{(k/m)}$

From equation (1) :

$d=\dfrac{9.8}{(25.7)^2}\\\\d=0.0148\ m\\\\d=1.48\ cm$

So, the distance by which the spring stretches is 1.48 cm.
