Answer:

3331.5 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Spring constant of the spring (k) = 24200 N/m

Frequency of oscillation (f) = 0.429 Hz

Let the mass be 'm' kg.

Now, we know that, a spring-mass system undergoes Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). The frequency of oscillation of SHM is given as:

f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Rewrite the above equation in terms of 'm'. This gives,

2\pi f=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\Squaring\ both\ sides,\ we\ get:\\\\(2\pi f)^2=\frac{k}{m}\\\\m=\frac{k}{4\pi^2 f^2}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'm'. This gives,

m=\frac{24200\ N/m}{4\pi^2\times (0.429\ Hz)^2 }\\\\m=\frac{24200\ N/m}{4\pi^2\times 0.184\ Hz^2}\\\\m\approx3331.5\ kg

Therefore, the mass of the truck is 3331.5 kg.

Which characteristic of a sound is affected by the amount of energy used to create that sound? In what direction the sound will
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

How loud or soft the sound is

Explanation:

The loudness of a sound wave is given by the amount of energy that the pressure wave carries and it is measured in decibels (dB) which is the relative intensity of the pressure wave of a sound to the standard pressure

A loud sound has a high amplitude and a soft sound has a low amplitude, such that as the amplitude of the sound is increased, due to increased energy input, the sound becomes louder, and as the amplitude of the sound is decreased due to reduced energy input, the sound becomes softer.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
lys-0071 [83]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

Explain whether demand is likely to be elastic or inelastic for Big Macs. A. Elastic comma since many other fast food items coul
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

A - elastic since many other fast food items could be considered close substitutes.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is how much the demand of the Big Macs will change due to a 1% change in price. Should the elasticity be greater than 1, the Big Macs will be elastic. Should it be less than 1, the Big Macs are inelastic.  

Demand elasticity is calculated as the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by a percentage change in price.

Since Big Macs are (i) a luxury good, and (ii) have close substitutes (other burgers available at McDonalds and other fast food stores), we will say their elasticity is greater than 1.  

This means that the demand of Big Macs will change due to a 1% increase in price due to the presence of close substitutes.

the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.The inputs of photosynthesis are light energy, and matter in the form of water absorbed through the roots, and carbon dioxide absorbed through the leaves.The main outputs are oxygen, which is released into the air, and glucose sugar (chemical energy), which is used to keep the plant alive.
