We have F = kx or ma = kx where m and k are constants. Therefore, if x is halved, a must be halved too.
Answer:
A) 
B) 
Explanation:
Given:
mass of car, 
A)
frequency of spring oscillation, 
We knkow the formula for spring oscillation frequency:




Now as we know that the springs are in parallel and their stiffness constant gets added up in parallel.
<u>So, the stiffness of each spring is (as they are identical):</u>



B)
given that 4 passengers of mass 70 kg each are in the car, then the oscillation frequency:



Answer:
Explanation:
The magnetic force acting horizontally will deflect the wire by angle φ from the vertical
Let T be the tension
T cosφ = mg
Tsinφ = Magnetic force
Tsinφ = BiL , where B is magnetic field , i is current and L is length of wire
Dividing
Tanφ = BiL / mg
= .055 x 29 x .11 / .010 x 9.8
= 1.79
φ = 61° .
Tension T = mg / cosφ
= .01 x 9.8 / cos61
= .2 N .
Answer:
Difference in height = 7.5 cm
Explanation:
We are given;.
Height of ethyl alcohol;h2 = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Density of glycerin: ρ1 = 1260 kg/m³
Density of ethyl alcohol; ρ2 = 790 kg/m³
To get the difference in height, the pressure at the top of the open end must be equal to the pressure at the point where the liquids do not mix since both points will be at different levels after the pouring.
Thus;
P1 = P2
Formula for pressure is; P = ρgh
Thus;
ρ1 × g × h1 = ρ2 × g × h2
g will cancel out to give;
ρ1 × h1 = ρ2× h2
Making h1 the subject, we have;
h1 = (ρ2× h2)/ρ1
h1 = (790 × 0.2)/1260
h1 = 0.125 m
Difference in height will be;
Δh = h2 - h1
Δh = 0.2 - 0.125
Δh = 0.075 m = 7.5 cm
Answer:
Accuracy is how close a measured value is to an accepted value. <u>Precision is how close measurements are to one another.</u> To make measurements, you have to evaluate both the accuracy and the precision to get a correct value.
