A damped harmonic oscillator consists of a mass on a spring, with a small damping force that is proportional to the speed of the

block. If the mass of the block is 320 g, the period of oscillation is 2.4 s, and the block loses 10% of its mechanical energy after one cycle, what is the damping constant?

Answer:

2.19 N/m

Explanation:

A damped harmonic oscillator is formed by a mass in the spring, and it does a harmonic simple movement. The period of it is the time that it does one cycle, and it can be calculated by:

T = 2π√(m/K)

Where T is the period, m is the mass (in kg), and K is the damping constant. So:

2.4 = 2π√(0.320/K)

√(0.320/K) = 2.4/2π

√(0.320/K) = 0.38197

(√(0.320/K))² = (0.38197)²

0.320/K = 0.1459

K = 2.19 N/m

Answer:

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the electric field is

     E = k q / r²

on a positive charge proof

The total electric field at the midpoint is

as q₁= 6 10⁻⁶ C the field is outgoing to the right

for charge q₂ = -3 10⁻⁶ C, the field is directed to the right, therefore

E_total = E₁ + E₂

E_total = k q₁ / r₁² + k q₂ / r₂²

r₁ = r₂ = r = 4 10⁻² m

E_total = k/r² (q₁ + q₂)

 we calculate

E_total = 9 10⁹ / (4 10⁻²)²   (6.0 10⁻⁶ +3.0 10⁻⁶)

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

What are the two factors that affect the period of a pendulum?
klemol [59]
The two factors that affect the period of a pendulum are the length of the string and the distance in which the pendulum falls.

Hope this helps! I would greatly appreciate a brainliest! :)

Examine the spectra of the four unknown substances shown below. What can you conclude?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Line spectra are obtained when individual elements are heated using a high-voltage electrical discharge. This heating causes excitation of the element and a subsequent emission of distinct lines of colored light are obtained. Each element has its own unique emission line spectrum; therefore, if any of the tested substances were the same, their spectra would match. However, this is not the case so none of the substances are the same.
 hope it helps!

If the mass of a material is 50 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
AlekseyPX
The density of the material would be 
25/6 grams per cm^3.
to obtain the result above this is what we do:
density is calculated as: (the mass of the given material or object) / volume of the material 
which leads us to 50grams /12cm^3
