<span>The correct option is D. Soil can best be described as the loose covering of weathered rocks and decaying organic matter. There are different types of soil, the type of soil formed depends majorly on the type of parent rock from which the soil is formed and the amount of organic matter present in the soil.</span>
Answer:
Systematic errors.
Explanation:
The density of the aluminium was calculated by a human and this is not natural but can be due to errors in the calibration of the scale for measuring the weight or taking readings from the measuring cylinder.
Random errors are natural errors. Random errors in experimental measurements are caused by unknown and unpredictable changes in the experiment. Systematic errors are due to imprecision or problems with instruments.
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.
A) Conservation of Energy,


Here,
m = Mass
v = Velocity
k = Spring constant
A = Amplitude
Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

Replacing,


(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.
The Period is defined as

Replacing,


Now the velocity is described as,


We have all the values, then replacing,


Answer:
3.7 m/s^2
Explanation:
The period of a simple pendulum is given by:

where L is the length of the pendulum and g is the free-fall acceleration on the planet.
Calling L the length of the pendulum, we know that:
is the period of the pendulum on Earth, and
is the free-fall acceleration on Earth
is the period of the pendulum on Mars, and
is the free-fall acceleration on Mars
Dividing the two expressions we get

And re-arranging it we can find the value of the free-fall acceleration on Mars:
