A block of unknown mass is attached to a spring of spring constant 7.3 N/m and undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitud

e of 12.7 cm. When the mass is halfway between its equilibrium position and the endpoint, its speed is measured to be 32.2 cm/s. Calculate the mass of the block. Answer in units of kg

Answer:

0.8516 kg

Explanation:

K = 7.3 N/m

A = 12.7 cm

y = A/2, v = 32.2 cm/s

Use the formula for the speed of mass

v=\omega \sqrt{A^{2}-y^{2}}

32.2=\omega \sqrt{A^{2}-\frac{A^{2}}{4}}}

32.2=\omega \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times 12.7

ω = 2.93 rad/s

Now, \omega =^{\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}}

Where, m is the mass of block.

m=\frac{K}{\omega ^{2}}

m = 7.3 / (2.93 x 2.93) = 0.8516 kg

A rock is dropped into the Grand Canyon. It takes 18 seconds to hit the bottom. Calculate how deep the canyon is.
bonufazy [111]
The distance it falls is given by
x = (1/2)at^2
where a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
x = (1/2)(9.8)(18)^2
x = 1587.6 m
The answer is 1587.6 meters

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g
mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

n_{r}=1.572

n_{b}=1.587

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}

\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})

\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}

Put the value into the formula

1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}

\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})

\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0

\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

A sinusoidal wave has period 0.20 s and wavelength 2.0 m. What is the wave speed?
il63 [147K]

Answer:10m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed ,v=for

Where π= wavelength=2m

Period =1/f f=frequency of wave

F=1/period

=1/0.2=5Hz

So speed of waves,v=5×2=10m/s

Sunspots appear dark because they are cooler than the surrounding solar surface. True or false
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

False, Sunspots appear dark (in visible light) due to their low temperature(cooler) than rest of the sun

Explanation:

Sunspots appear dark because they are much cooler( have low temperature than the rest of the surface contained by Sun. As they appear dark, but still they have very temperature that's why so hot. Sunspots have temperatures ranges  3,500 Celsius (3773 kelvin) and the surrounding surface of the sun has a temperature much higher of about 5,500 Celsius(5773 Kelvin). Even if we see a sunspot alone in space,  it will glow so brightly.
