<h3>Answer;</h3>

A mixture 

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

A mixture is a substance that is made of two or more substances. A mixture may be homogeneous in which substances in the mixture are in the same phase, or may be heterogeneous where substances in the mixture are not in the same phase, such as suspensions and colloids. Therefore mixtures are not pure substances.
A pure substance is a substance that contains atoms or molecules of the same element or compound. Examples of pure substances are elements, compounds and also atoms.

Answer:

Inhibit the flow of electrons

Explanation:

An electric current usually consists of electrons moving through a wire.

An insulator prevents the flow of an electric current, so it inhibits the flow of electrons.

You and a partner sit on the floor and stretch out a coiled spring to a length of 7.2 meters. You shake the coil so you

vekshin1

Answer:

Approximately $5.9\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ (assuming that the partner is holding the other end of the coil stationary.)

Explanation:

In a standing wave, an antinode is a point that moves with maximal amplitude, while a node is a point that does not move at all. There is an antinode between every two adjacent nodes. Likewise, there is a node between every two adjacent antinodes.

The side of the spring that is being shaken moving with maximal amplitude. Hence, that point on this spring would also be an antinode. In contrast, the side of the spring that is held still (does not move at all) would be a node.

There would be a node between:

the antinode at the end of the spring that is being shaken, and
the antinode between the two ends of this spring.

Overall, the nodes and antinodes on this spring would be:

node at the end that is being held still,
antinode (as mentioned in the question),
node (inferred, not mentioned in the question), and
antinode at the end that is being shaken.

The distance between two adjacent nodes is equal to one-half (that is, $(1/2)$ ) the wavelength of the wave. The distance between a node and an adjacent antinode is one-quarter (that is, $(1/4)$ ) of the wavelength of the wave.

Thus, if the wavelength of the wave in this question is $\lambda$ , the length of this spring would be:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, \lambda + \frac{1}{4}\, \lambda = \frac{3}{4}\, \lambda$ .

The question states that the length of this coiled spring is $7.2\; {\rm m}$ . In other words, $(3/4) \, \lambda = 7.2\; {\rm m}$ . The wavelength of this wave would be $(7.2\; {\rm m}) / (3/4) = 9.6\; {\rm m}$ .

The frequency $f$ of this wave is the number of cycles in unit time:

$\begin{aligned} f &= \frac{10}{16.3\; {\rm s}} \approx 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the speed $v$ of this wave would be:

$\begin{aligned} v &= \lambda\, f \\ &=9.6\; {\rm m} \times 0.613\; {\rm s^{-1}} \\ &\approx 5.9\; {\rm m \cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line

poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

$v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s$

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

g A 1.5-kg mass attached to spring with a force constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At t = 0, t

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

(a) f = 0.58Hz

(b) vmax = 0.364m/s

(d) E = 0.1J

(e) x(t)=0.1m*cos(2π(0.58s^{-1})t)

Explanation:

(a) The frequency of the oscillation, in a spring-mass system, is calculated by using the following formula:

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

k: spring constant = 20.0N/m

m: mass = 1.5kg

you replace the values of m and k for getting f:

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{20.0N/m}{1.5kg}}=0.58s^{-1}=0.58Hz$

The frequency of the oscillation is 0.58Hz

(b) The maximum speed is given by the following relation:

$v_{max}=\omega A=2\pi f A$ (2)

A: amplitude of the oscillations = 10.0cm = 0.10m

$v_{max}=2\pi (0.58s^{-1})(0.10m)=0.364\frac{m}{s}$

The maximum speed of the mass is 0.364 m/s.

The maximum speed occurs when the mass passes trough the equilibrium point of the oscillation.

(c) The maximum acceleration is given by the following formula:

$a_{max}=\omega^2A=(2\pi f)^2 A$

$a_{max}=(2\pi (0.58s^{-1}))(0.10m)=1.32\frac{m}{s^2}$

The maximum acceleration is 1.32 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs where the elastic force is a maximum, that is, where the mass is at the maximum distance from the equilibrium point, that is, the acceleration.

(d) The total energy of the system is calculated with the maximum potential elastic energy:

$E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2=\frac{1}{2}(20.0N/m)(0.10m)^2=0.1J$

The total energy is 0.1J

(e) The displacement as a function of time is:

$x(t)=Acos(\omega t)=Acos(2\pi ft)\\\\x(t)=0.1m\ cos(2\pi(0.58s^{-1})t)$
