Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.8 x 105 kg on springs that hav

Answer:

The force constant is $k =1.316 *10^{7} \ N/m$

The energy stored in the spring is $E = 1.68 *10^{7} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the object is $M = 4.8*10^{5} \ kg$

The period is $T = 1.2 \ s$

The period of the spring oscillation is mathematically represented as

$T =2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{M}{k}}$

where k is the force constant

So making k the subject

$k = \frac{4 \pi ^2 M }{T^2}$

substituting values

$k = \frac{4 (3.142) ^2 (4.8 *10^{5}) }{(1.2)^2}$

$k =1.316 *10^{7} \ N/m$

The energy stored in the spring is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{1}{2} k x^2$

Where x is the spring displacement which is given as

$x = 1.6 \ m$

substituting values

$E = \frac{1}{2} (1.316 *10^{7}) (1.6)^2$

$E = 1.68 *10^{7} \ J$

Answer:

If we want to reach the planet PSR B1620-26 b, explain why we will need to make some big “wrinkle in time” discoveries or find ways to live much, much longer?
