Answer:

17.71N/m

Explanation:

The period of the spring is expressed according to the expression;

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\

m is the mass of the object

k is the force constant

Given

m = 5.50kg

T = 3.50s

Substitute into the formula;

T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\3.5 = 2 (3.14) \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\3.5 = 6.28 \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\\frac{3.5}{6.28} =  \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\0.557 = \sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} } \\square \ both \ sides\\0.557^2 = (\sqrt{\frac{5.5}{k} })^2 \\0.3106 = \frac{5,5}{k}\\k = \frac{5.5}{0.3106}\\k =  17.71N/m

Hence the force constant of the spring is 17.71N/m

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Actually, gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental forces. Ordered from strongest to weakest, the forces are 1) the strong nuclear force, 2) the electromagnetic force, 3) the weak nuclear force, and 4) gravity.

What are the names of the 2 charged particles in an atom and what are their charges
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Protons and electrons

Explanation:

  • The atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  • The physical and chemical characteristics of an atom are determined by the number of these particle composition.
  • The protons present in the center of an atom called the nucleus is positively charged.
  • The neutrons are also located in the nucleus of an atom with no charge.
  • The electrons has a negative charge and it is placed around the nucleus having different shells and quantum state.
  • The charges of the protons and electrons are denoted by +q and -q. The quantization of these charges are +1, +2, ... and -1, -2, .... etc.

to start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 290 m/s at 53.0° above the ho
kap26 [50]
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.

The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m

The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.

This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m

So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)

In the absence of air resistance, at what other angle will a thrown ball go the same distance as one thrown at an angle of 75 de
snow_tiger [21]

As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by

R = \frac{v^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}

here we know that range will be same for two different angles

so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles

so the two angles must be

\theta, 90 - \theta

so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree

so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree

so other projection angle must be 15 degree
