Answer: option b.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a spring with constant K is calculated as:

kinetic energy = (k/2)*x^2

Where x^2 is the displacement of the spring with respect to it's rest position.

This can be written as a function like:

x = A*cos(2*pi*f*t)

where:

A is the amplitude (the maximum distance that the spring can move in each direction)

f is the frequency (and 2*pi*f is the angular frequency)

and t is the variable, it represents the time.

Replacing this in the kinetic energy equation, we get:

kinetic energy = (k/2)*(A*cos(2*pi*f*t))^2

This is the same as the option b: b. 1/2kA^2cos^2(2πft)

Then the corrrect option is b.

Which of the following statements about atoms is true?
anastassius [24]
<span>The atoms are grouped thus forming molecules. Each type of molecule is the combination of a certain number of atoms linked between them and in a specific way, whenever a molecule can contain atoms of different elements or of the same. And that in turn, Each atom retains its structural characteristics, beyond that they are part of different molecules because during the chemical reactions the atoms cannot be created or destroyed, but they are organized in a different way creating links between an atom and another.</span>

A long line of charge with uniform linear charge density λ1 is located on the x-axis and another long line of charge with unifor
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

A.The positive z-direction

Explanation:

We are given that

Linear charge density of long line which is  located on the x-axis=\lambda_1

Linear charge density of another long line which is  located on the y-axis=\lambda_2

We have to find the direction of electric field at z=a on the positive z-axis if \lambda_1 and \lambda_2 are positive.

The direction of electric field  at z=a on the positive z-axis  is positive z-direction .

Because \lambda_1 and \lambda_2 are positive and the electric field is  applied away from the positive charge.

Hence, option A is true.

A.The positive z-direction

4- by eating food only will you get energy?​
Serga [27]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

All parts of the body (muscles, brain, heart, and liver) need energy to work. This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach.

Which circuit is a series circuit ?? plz help
gregori [183]

In a series circuit, all of the components are connected in the same 'loop' and the current only has one direction/path it can flow through.

In the first three options, the current has multiple paths it can go through. So these three circuits are parallel and not series.

In the last option, the current only has one path where it can flow through, so that circuit is in series.

So Circuit <u>D </u>is a series circuit.

Answer

Circuit D
