At an outdoor market, a bunch of bananas is set into oscillatory motion with an amplitude of 34.7998 cm on a spring with a sprin

g constant of 13.5666 N/m. It is observed that the maximum speed of the bunch of bananas is 70.8966 cm/s. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 .

Answer:

W = 32.03316 N

Explanation:

given,

Amplitude, A = 34.7998 cm = 0.347998 m

spring constant, k = 13.5666 N/m

maximum speed, v = 70.8966 cm/s = 0.708966 m/s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

weight of the banana = ?

using maximum speed formula

v_{max} = A \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

squaring both side

v_{max}^2 = A^2 \dfrac{k}{m}

m = \dfrac{A^2k}{v_{max}^2}

m = \dfrac{0.347998^2\times 13.5666}{0.708966^2}

  m = 3.26868 Kg

weight

W = mg

W= 3.26868 x 9.8

W = 32.03316 N

hence, weight of Banana is equal to W = 32.03316 N

Agata [3.3K]
Potential Energy = mgh,

where m = mass in kg,  g ≈ 10 m/s², h = height above ground = 8 m

PE = mgh
  
      = 70*10*8 = 5600 J

What is the relationship between the wavelength of light and the frequency of light?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

The wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

Explanation:

The frequency of a light wave is how many waves move past a certain point during a set amount of time -- usually one second is used. Frequency is generally measured in Hertz, which are units of cycles per second. Color is the frequency of visible light, and it ranges from 430 trillion Hertz (which is red) to 750 trillion Hertz (which is violet). Waves can also go beyond and below those frequencies, but they're not visible to the human eye. For instance, radio waves are less than one billion Hertz; gamma rays are more than three billion billion Hertz.Wave frequency is related to wave energy. Since all that waves really are is traveling energy, the more energy in a wave, the higher its frequency. The lower the frequency is, the less energy in the wave. Following the above examples, gamma rays have very high energy and radio waves are low-energy. When it comes to light waves, violet is the highest energy color and red is the lowest energy color. Related to the energy and frequency is the wavelength, or the distance between corresponding points on subsequent waves. You can measure wavelength from peak to peak or from trough to trough. Shorter waves move faster and have more energy, and longer waves travel more slowly and have less energy.Aside from the different frequencies and lengths of light waves, they also have different speeds. In a vacuum, light waves move their fastest: 186,000 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second). This is also the fastest that anything in the universe moves. But when light waves move through air, water or glass, they slow down. That's also when they bend and refract.

The launch speed of a projectile is three times the speed it has at its maximum height.what is the elevation angle at launch?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Given: a projectile of initial launch velocity(V) and launch angle ∅ and no air resistance. At the maximum height, the projectile would have a zero contribution of speed from the vertical component(Vy) Therefore, if we say Vx=Vcos∅ is the only speed the projectile has at the instant of maximum height then we can replace Vx with 1/5V and write 1/5V=Vcos∅. Solving for the the launch angle ∅, gives Inverse Cos(1/5)=78.5 degrees.

How is the atmospheric pressure detected.<br>plsss help...​
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Atmospheric pressure is commonly measured with a barometer. In a barometer, a column of mercury in a glass tube rises or falls as the weight of the atmosphere changes. Meteorologists describe the atmospheric pressure by how high the mercury rises.
