If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it will oscillate. The

object is displaced a distance 0.120 m from its equilibrium position and released with zero initial speed. Then after a time 0.800 s, its displacement is found to be a distance 0.120 m on the opposite side, and it has passed the equilibrium position once during this interval. a) Find the amplitude. b) Find the period. c) Find the frequency."

Answer:

a)0.120m

b)1.60s

c)0.625Hz

Explanation:

a)In this problem, initial displacement A=0.120m was displaced and released with zero initial speed.

The amplitude is the maximum displacement from equilibrium and it was maximum at the moment t=0.(∴The object goes from x=+A to x=-A and back to complete one cycle)

So the amplitude will be equal to the initial displacement A=0.120m

Therefore, the amplitude is 0.120m

b) movement from +A( max positive displacement) to -A (max negative displacement) took place during half the period of SHM

therefore,

0.800 s= T/2   ---> by further solving for T

T= 0.800 x 2

T=1.6 s

The period is 1.6 s

c) As we know that frequency is inversely proportional to the time period.

To find frequency:

f=1/T           (∴T=1.6)

f=1/1.6

f=0.625Hz

therefore, the frequency is 0.625 Hz

Answer: a) 0.120m, b) 1.6s, c) 0.625Hz

Explanation:

a)

From the question, we can see that the maximum displacement from the mean position is 0.120m, this value is the amplitude of the motion.

Hence A = 0.120m

b)

From the point of release to the opposite end, the object has completed half an oscillation ( assuming it went back to it point of release, then we have a complete oscillation), hence the period of the motion is half which is also equals to the time taken to move from the point of release to the opposite end (0.800s)

0.800 = T/2

Where T is the period of motion.

By cross multiplying, we have that

T = 0.800×2

T = 1.6s

c)

There is an inverse relationship between frequency and period.

Where f = 1/T

f = 1/0.16 = 0.625 Hz

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

constructive interference.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.

Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m.

In this scenario, an experiment is conducted by Pierce in which waves collide in a way that the energy increases. Thus, this is an example of constructive interference i.e constructive interference has occurred.

An interference occurs when two pair of waves such as sound and light waves pass through each other i.e crossing each other's path while traveling through the same medium or space.

Dimas [21]

Answer: the capacity to understand the world, think rationally, and use resources effectively.

Explanation:

Intelligence refers to higher level abilities, the ability to learn, being creative, having an emotional knowledge, and ability to adapt to different scenarios.

Since Ashley, a psychology major, remarks that she has become interested in the study of intelligence, then Ashley is interested in the capacity to understand the world, think rationally, and use resources effectively.

In one cycle, a heat engine takes in 1000 J of heat from a high-temperature reservoir, releases 600 J of heat to a lower-tempera
Talja [164]

Answer:

η = 40 %  

Explanation:

Given that

Qa ,Heat addition= 1000  J

Qr,Heat rejection= 600 J

Work done ,W= 400 J

We know that ,efficiency of a engine given as

\eta=\dfrac{W(net)}{Q(heat\ addition)}

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,then we get

\eta=\dfrac{400}{1000}

η = 0.4

The efficiency in percentage is given as

η = 0.4  x 100 %

η = 40 %

Therefore the answer will be 40%.
