Answer

8. 2 Hz

9. 0.5 seconds

10. 20 cm

Explanation

Q 8

Frequency is the number of oscillation in a unit time. It is the rate at which something repeats itself in a second.

In this case, the spring bob up and down 2 times per second.

∴ Frequency = 2 Hz

Q 9

Period is the time taken to complete one oscillation.

2 oscillations takes 1 second

1 oscillation = 1/2 seconds.

∴ Period = 0.5 seconds

Q 10

Amplitude is the the maximum displacement of the spring.

In this case the spring bob up 20 cm. This is it's displacement.

∴ Amplitude = 20 cm

A horse running at 3 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. How fast is the

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/ $s^{2}$

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}$

$2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0$

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

$v=u+at$

$v=3+1.945*5$

$v=3+9.72$

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.

Substances can undergo physical changes or chemical changes. what is the difference between these two kinds of changes

soldi70 [24.7K]

Physical changes are those change which just externally or physically change the state of the object . for example : water boils and evaporates... here the state is just changing from liquid to vapour while the composition is the same.

chemical changes are those which bring about a change in the composition of a substance. for example: burning of paper changes into ash .

According to Oxford Dictionaries, a spit take is an act of suddenly spitting out liquid one is drinking in response to something

Tasya [4]

Answer:

The pressure is $p_1 = 4051.4 \ Pa$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The gauge pressure at the mouth is $p_1$

The radius of the column is $r_2 = 4 \ mm = 0.004 \ m$

The speed of the liquid outside the body is $v_2 = 3.1 \ m/s$

The area of the column is $A_2$

The area inside the mouth $A_1 = 10 A_2$

Generally according to continuity equation

$v_1 A_1 = v_2 A_2$

=> $v_ 1 = v_2 * \frac{A_2}{A_1}$

=> $v_ 1 = 3.1 * \frac{1}{10}$

=> $v_ 1 = 0.31 \ m/s$

$A_1 = 10A_2$

=> $\pi * r_1^2 = 10(\pi * r_2^2)$

=> $r_1 = 10 * r_2$

substituting values

$r_1 = 10 * 0.004$

$r_1 =0.04 \ m$

Now the height of inside the mouth is $h_1 = d = 2r_1 = 2* 0.04 = 0.08\ m$

Now the height of the column is $h_2 = d = 2r_2 = 2* 0.004 = 0.008\ m$

Generally according to Bernoulli's equation

$p_1 = [\frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + h_2 \rho g +p_2] -[\frac{1}{2} \rho * v_1^2 + h_1 \rho g ]$

Now $\rho = 1000 \ kg m^{-3}$ which is the density of water

$p_2$ is the gauge pressure of the atmosphere which is zero

$p_1 = [(0.5 * 1000 * (3.1)^2) +(0.008 * 1000 * 9.8) + 0]-$

$[(0.5 * 1000 * 0.31^2) + (0.08*1000 * 9.8)]$

$p_1 = 4051.4 \ Pa$

How is lightning formed with explanation l?

creativ13 [48]

Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charger
