Answer:

The automobile's acceleration in that time interval is -2 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity.

The average acceleration in a given lapse of time is calculated as:

A = (final velocity - initial velocity)/time.

In this case, we have:

initial velocity = 31 m/s

final velocity = 15 m/s

time = 8 seconds.

Then the average acceleration is:

A = (15m/s - 31m/s)/8s = -2 m/s^2

What is the period if the block’s mass is doubled? note that you do not know the value of either m or k , so do not assume any p
Oksanka [162]

The period of the block's mass is changed by a factor of √2 when the mass of the block was doubled.

The time period T of the block with mass M attached to a spring of spring constant K is given by,

T = 2π(√M/K).

Let us say that, when we increased the mass to 2M, the time periods of the block became T', the spring constant is not changed, so, we can write,

T' = 2π(√2M/K)

Putting T = 2π(√M/K) above,

T' =√2T

So, here we can see, if the mass is doubled from it's initial value. The time period of the mass will be changed by a factor of √2.
