Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the spring, l = 50 cm

Mass, m = 330 g = 0.33 kg

(A) The mass is released and falls, stretching the spring by 28 cm before coming to rest at its lowest point. On applying second law of Newton at 14 cm below the lowest point we get :

kx=mg\\\\k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{0.33\times 9.8}{0.14}\\\\k=23.1\ N/m

(B) The amplitude of the oscillation is half of the total distance covered. So, amplitude is 14 cm.

(C) The frequency of the oscillation is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{23.1}{0.33}} \\\\f=1.33\ Hz

How would you go about separating the components of a mixture of sand, gravel, salt and iron filings
larisa86 [58]

Pour the entire components into water.

First the iron filings can be separated using a magnet as iron is a magnetic element.

By pouring the mixture into water, it allows the salt to dissolve in the water, while the sand will not.

Next we can run this solution through a filtration device to separate the sand from the water.

Now all that's left is to let the water evaporate so that the salt will be exposed that dissolved into the water.

A beam of red light is made to pass through two slits that are 3.55 E-3 meters apart. On a screen 2.25 meters away from the slit
JulsSmile [24]
I am assuming you know the relation obtained between slit width, distance of screen from slits, distance of interference pattern obtained on the screen from the center and the wavelength of monochromatic light used in Young's Double Slit experiment.
λ =\frac{y*d}{D} =  \frac{3.55*10^{-3}*1.25*10^{-4}  }{2.25} = 1.97*10^{-7} m
λ ~ 1.97 ×10⁻⁷m

The battleship and enemy ships 1 and 2 lie along a straight line. Neglect air friction. battleship 1 2 Consider the motion of th
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

\frac{t_1}{t_2} = \frac{sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}

Explanation:

The vertical component of the initial velocities are

v_v = v_0sin\theta

If we ignore air resistance, and let g = -9.81 m/s2. The the time it takes for the projectiles to travel, vertically speaking, can be calculated in the following motion equation

v_vt - gt^2/2 = s = 0

t(v_v - gt/2) = 0

v_v - gt/2 = 0

t = 2v_v/g = 2v_0sin\theta/g

So the ratio of the times of the flights is

t_1 / t_2 = \frac{2v_0sin\theta_1/g}{2v_0sin\theta_2/g} = \frac{sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}

Two identical charges q placed 2.0 mapart exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other What is the value of the charge q? a) q
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

c) 4.2*10^{-5}C

Explanation:

Coulomb's law says that the force exerted between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them, and is given by the expression:

F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

where k is a proportionality constant with the value k=9*10^{9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}

In this case q_{1}=q_{2}=q, so we have:

F=\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

Solving the equation for q, we have:

kq^{2}=Fr^{2}

q^{2}=\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}

q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}}

Replacing the given values:

q=\sqrt{\frac{4.0N*(2.0m)^{2}}{9*10^{-9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}}}

q=4.2*10^{-5}C
