Answer:

Evaporation

Explanation:

Evaporation is a form of mass tranfer phenomena where by water are moved from the earth surface into the atmosphere as vapours,it is path of the water cycle a decription of the path moved by land water until it turns into rain, humidity,air and temperature are factors that influence evaporation though evaporation can happen at all temperature

A positively charged objectwith a mass of 0.114 kg oscillates at the end of a spring, generating ELF (extremely low frequency) r

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

k = 167.33 N/m

Explanation:

The radio waves have a fixed relationship between the propagation speed (the speed of light in vacuum), the frequency and the wavelength, as follows:
v = c = λ*f

where c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s, λ = wavelength =

4.92*10⁷ m.

Solving for f, we get the frequency of the radio waves:

f = 6.1 Hz

Now, from the Hooke's law, we know that the mass attached at the end of the spring oscillates with an angular frequency defined by a fixed relationship between the spring constant k and the mass m, as follows:

$\omega_{o}^{2} =\frac{k}{m} (1)$

Now, we know that there exists a fixed relationship between the angular frequency and the frequency, as follows:

$\omega = 2*\pi *f (2)$

We also know that f in (2) is the same that we got for the radio waves, so replacing (2) in (1), and rearranging terms, we can solve for k, as follows:
$k = 4*\pi ^{2}*f^{2} *m = 4*\pi ^{2} * (6.1Hz)^{2} * 0.114 kg = 167.33 N/m$

What are possible formulas for impulse? Check all that apply. J = Fdeltat J = StartFraction force over change in time EndFractio

Alex

<u>The possible formulas for impulse are as follows:</u>

J = FΔt

J = mΔv

J = Δp

Answer: Option A, E and F

<u>Explanation:</u>

The quantity which explains the consequences of a overall force acting on an object (moving force) is known as impulse. It is symbolised as J. When the average overall force acting on an object than such products are formed and in given duration than the start fraction force over change in time end fraction J = FΔt.

The impulse-momentum theorem explains that the variation in momentum of an object is same as the impulse applied to it: J = Δp J = mΔv if mass is constant J = m dv + v dm if mass changes. Logically, the impulse-momentum theorem is equivalent to Newton second laws of motion which is also called as force law.
