The total mechanical energy of the block-spring system is given by the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy of the block:
E=U+K= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation/compression of the spring
m is the mass of the block
v is the speed of the block

At the point of maximum displacement of the spring, the velocity of the block is zero: v=0, so the kinetic energy is zero and the mechanical energy is just potential energy of the spring:
E= \frac{1}{2}kA^2 (1)
where we used x=A, the amplitude (which is the maximum displacement of the spring).
Since we know 
A = 11.0 cm= 0.11 m
E = 1.10 J
We can re-arrange (1) to find the spring constant:
k= \frac{2E}{A^2} = \frac{2 \cdot 1.10 J}{(0.11 m)^2}=181.8 N/m

1. What is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave?
Andreyy89

#1

As we know that energy of electromagnetic wave is given by

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

so here we know that penetrating power will directly depends on its energy and energy inversely depends on wavelength

So here we can say correct answer will be

C) The penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases.

#2

Speed of sound is maximum in solids and minimum in gas

so here as ice melts into water the speed of sound must have to decrease

so correct answer will be

D) The speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids.

#3

mechanical waves required medium to travel while non mechanical waves do not require any medium to travel

so here correct answer will be

A) sound

A cylindrical tank has a radius of 53 cm and a height of 1200 mm. It weighs 9.6 kN
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

1985kg

Explanation:

assuming that

pi =3.14

oil density = 950kg/ cubic meter

g= 9.8m/s

M=\frac{9600}{9.8 } + 950 * 3.14*.53^{2} *1.2=1985kg

Describe the interactions with the Sun, Earth and Moon system that result in Tides.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:The sun, earth, and moon are held together by gravity, and they interact in lots of ways.

  • The tides are another interaction in the sun-earth-moon system. The tides happen because the moon and sun pull on the oceans, causing them to rise and fall each day. The moon has a bigger effect than the sun because it is closer.

What is the length of the color attribute?
astraxan [27]

The length of the colour attribute is 6 characters.

<h3>What is a colour attribute?</h3>

Each colour has a distinct look based on three essential characteristics: hue, chroma (saturation), and value (lightness). It's critical to use all three of these properties when describing colour to appropriately identify it and distinguish it from others.

<h3>What is the use of colour attributes?</h3>

The HTML <font> color Attribute specifies the text color within the font element. Values of Attributes: colour name: It uses the colour name to set the text colour.

It should be noticed that colours are represented by the hex triplet.
