A weight suspended from a spring is seen to bob up and down over a total distance of 20 centimeters twice each second.

Physics

Zielflug [23.3K]2 years ago
5 0

<u>Answer</u>

8. 2 Hz

9. 0.5 seconds

10. 20 cm


<u>Explanation</u>

<u>Q 8</u>

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

<u>Q 9</u>

Period is the time taken to complete one oscillation.

2 oscillations takes 1 second

1 oscillation = 1/2 seconds.

∴ Period = 0.5 seconds


<u>Q 10</u>

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

What is the mass of an object that accelerates at 5 m/s2 when pushed with 100 N?
dangina [55]

Answer:

the answer is 20g

Explanation:

Data:

acceleration:5m/s2

force:100N

mass:?

solution:

force: mass*acceleration

mass: force divided by acceleration

mass:100/5

mass:20g

or another way of solving it is

force: mass*acceleration

100:mass*5

100/5 : mass

20g:mass

what dangers higher voltages have for humans whose resistance changes depending on hand lotion, rubber gloves, other types of gl
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Higher voltages pose huge dangers to humans with changes in resistance however, the use of hand lotion and rubber gloves help to reduce the amount of current flowing through the human. Notwithstanding higher currents can lead to death by stopping blood flow to the heart causing a heart attack. Best way to survive voltages above 120 volts is to use a rubber glove and avoid touching bare wires.

Explanation:

Other classes of gloves that can be used include:  Class 1 gloves which can be used for current up to 7,500 volts of AC, Class 2 up to 17,000 volts AC, Class 3 up to 26,500 volts AC, and Class 4 up to 36,000 volts AC. However, cotton gloves can be used inside to absorb perspiration and to improve the comfort of the user.

What happens to the force of gravity between two masses if the mass of one of the objects decreases?
klio [65]

It increases

Explanation:

The force of gravity depends directly upon the masses of the two objects, and inversely on the square of the distance between them. This means that the force of gravity increases with mass, but decreases with increasing distance between object

A solid conducting sphere with radius RR that carries positive charge QQ is concentric with a very thin insulating shell of radi
svetlana [45]

Answer:

E=0 at r < R;

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon}\frac{Q}{r^{2}} at 2R > r > R;

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{2Q}{r^{2}} at r >= 2R

Explanation:

Since we have a spherically symmetric system of charged bodies, the best approach is to use Guass' Theorem which is given by,

\int {E} \, dA=\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon} (integral over a closed surface)

where,

E = Electric field

Q_{enclosed} = charged enclosed within the closed surface

\epsilon = permittivity of free space

Now, looking at the system we can say that a sphere(concentric with the conducting and non-conducting spheres) would be the best choice of a Gaussian surface. Let the radius of the sphere be r .

at r < R,

Q_{enclosed} = 0 and hence E = 0 (since the sphere is conducting, all the charges get repelled towards the surface)

at 2R > r > R,

Q_{enclosed} = Q,

therefore,

E\times4\pi r^{2}=\frac{Q_{enclosed}}{\epsilon}      

(Since the system is spherically symmetric, E is constant at any given r and so we have taken it out of the integral. Also, the surface integral of a sphere gives us the area of a sphere which is equal to 4\pi r^{2})

or, E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon}\frac{Q}{r^{2}}

at r >= 2R

Q_{enclosed} = 2Q

Hence, by similar calculations, we get,

E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{2Q}{r^{2}}
