By the power of the inverse square law, the gravitational acceleration would be reduced by a factor of four.

At which point on the image to the right would the ball have the greatest velocity if it moved from A to G.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

It would be A, because it is has more height in which the potential energy would be greater.

We think of sound as something we hear—something that makes noise. But in pure physics terms, sound is just a vibration going through matter.

The way a vibration “goes through” matter is in the form of a sound wave. When you think of sound waves, you probably think of something like this:1

But that’s not how sound waves work. A wave like that is called a transverse wave, where each individual particle moves up and down to create a snake situation.

A sound wave is more like an earthworm situation:2

Like an earthworm, sound moves by compressing and decompressing. This is called a longitudinal wave. A slinky can do both kinds of waves:13

Sound starts with a vibration of some kind creating a longitudinal wave through matter. Check this out:4

That’s what sound looks like—except picture an expanding ripple of spheres doing that. In this animation, the sound wave is being generated by that vibrating grey bar on the left. The bar might be your vocal chords, a guitar string, or a waterfall continually pounding down into the river below. By looking at the red dots, you can see that even though the wave moves in one direction, each individual particle only moves back and forth, mimicking the vibration of the gray bar.

So instead of a curvy snake wave, sound is a pressure wave, which causes each piece of the air to be at either higher-than-normal pressure or lower-than-normal pressure. So when you see a snake-like illustration of a sound wave, it’s referring to the measure of pressure, not the literal path of movement of the particles:5

If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it oscillates. Suppose
Volgvan

Answer:

a) A=0.125 m

b) T = 1.72 s

c) f= 0.58 Hz

Explanation:

a) As we are told that the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position was 0.125 m (from which it was released at zero initial speed), this is the amplitude of the resultant SHM, so, A=0.125 m

b) In order to find the period, we must get the total time needed to complete a full cycle (which means that the block must pass twice through the equilibrium point). We are told that at t=0.860 sec, the block has reached to the other end of the trajectory, and it  has passed through the equilibrium point only once.

This means that the period must be exactly the double of this time:

T = 2*0. 860 sec = 1.72 sec.

c) In a SHM, the frequency is defined just as the inverse of the period (like in a uniform circular movement), so we can get the frequency  f as follows:

f = 1/T = 1/ 1.72 s= 0.58 Hz
