A mass-spring system has k = 56.8 N/m and m = 0.46 kg.

andriy [413]

Answer:

A. $\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}$

B. $f=1.7685\ Hz$

C. $T=0.5654\ s$

Explanation:

Given:

spring constant, $k=56.8\ N.m^{-1}$

mass attached, $m=0.46\ kg$

for a spring-mass system the frequency is given as:

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{56.8}{0.46}}$

$\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}$

frequency is given as:

$f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$f=\frac{11.1121}{2\pi}$

$f=1.7685\ Hz$

Time period of a simple harmonic motion is given as:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

$T=0.5654\ s$

A proton moving at 3.90 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.80 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.20 10-1

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

$\theta=40^0$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic force is

$F_m=evB\sin\theta$

To find the angle, we make $\sin\theta$ subject of the formula

$\implies \sin\theta=\frac{F_m}{evB}=\frac{7.20\times 10^{-13}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.90\times 10^6\times 1.80}$

$\implies \sin\theta=0.641025641$

$\therefore \theta=\sin^{-1}=39.8683^0\\\implies \theta\approxeq 40^0$

A packing crate rests on a horizontal surface. It is acted on by three horizontal forces: 600 N to the left, 200 N to the right,

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The resultant force would (still) be zero.

Explanation:

Before the 600-N force is removed, the crate is not moving (relative to the surface.) Its velocity would be zero. Since its velocity isn't changing, its acceleration would also be zero.

In effect, the 600-N force to the left and 200-N force to the right combines and acts like a 400-N force to the left.

By Newton's Second Law, the resultant force on the crate would be zero. As a result, friction (the only other horizontal force on the crate) should balance that 400-N force. In this case, the friction should act in the opposite direction with a size of 400 N.

When the 600-N force is removed, there would only be two horizontal forces on the crate: the 200-N force to the right, and friction. The maximum friction possible must be at least 200 N such that the resultant force would still be zero. In this case, the static friction coefficient isn't known. As a result, it won't be possible to find the exact value of the maximum friction on the crate.

However, recall that before the 600-N force is removed, the friction on the crate is 400 N. The normal force on the crate (which is in the vertical direction) did not change. As a result, one can hence be assured that the maximum friction would be at least 400 N. That's sufficient for balancing the 200-N force to the right. Hence, the resultant force on the crate would still be zero, and the crate won't move.

What is the best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in thomson's beams

hoa [83]

The best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in Thomson's beams is:

<u>An atom's smaller negative particles are at a distance from the central positive particles, so the negative particles are easier to remove.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Thomson's model, an atom comprises of electrons that are surrounded by a group of positive particles to equal the electron's negative particles, like negatively charged “plums” that are surrounded by positively charged “pudding”.

Atoms are composed of a nucleus that consists of protons and neutrons . Electron was discovered by Sir J.J.Thomson. Atoms are neutral overall, therefore in Thomson’s ‘plum pudding model’:

atoms are spheres of positive charge
electrons are dotted around inside

Thomson's conclusions made him to propose the Rutherford model of the atom where the atom had a concentrated nucleus of positive charge and also large mass.

Consider an alien on a planet with an acceleration of gravity equal to 20 m/sec^2. If the alien's mass is 10 kg, how much does t

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

the weight of alien is 200 newtons

Explanation:

The computation of the alien weight is shown below:

Given that

Acceleration = 20m/sec^2

And, the mass is 10 kg

So, the weight of alien is

= 20 × 10

= 200 newtons

hence, the weight of alien is 200 newtons
