A spring is hung from the ceiling. A 0.442-kg block is then attached to the free end of the spring. When released from rest, the

block drops 0.150 m before momentarily coming to rest, after which it moves back upward. (a) What is the spring constant of the spring

Answer:

K=58.8N/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=0.442

Drop distance d=0.150

Generally the equation for Spring Constant is mathematically given by

 K=\frac{2mg}{x}

 K=\frac{2*0.442*9.8}{1.150}

 K=58.8N/m

Two points are located on a rigid wheel that is rotating with decreasing angular velocity about a fixed axis. Point A is located
Nata [24]

Answer:

4. Both points have the same instantaneous angular velocity

Explanation:

Angular velocity is a measure of the the number of rotations per unit time. This does not depend on the radius of the wheel. Hence, all points on the wheel have the same angular velocity. This invalidates option 1.

The centripetal acceleration is given by the product to the square of the angular velocity and the radius or distance from the centre. A and B are located at different distances from the centre. Hence, they have different centripetal acceleration. This invalidates option 2.

The tangential acceleration depends on the linear velocity which itself is a product of the angular velocity and the distance from the centre. Hence, it is different for both points because they are at different distances from the centre.

Since both A and B are fixed points on the wheel, they move through equal angles in the same time. In fact, for any other fixed point, they all move through the same angle in the same time. This invalidates option 5.

Light of wavelength 480 nm illuminates a double slit, and the interference pattern is observed on a screen. At the position of t
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

BC =980nm

Explanation:

Given wavelength =490nm

m=2

Required to find (OB - OC) = BC (more distant slit - nearest slit ) = dsin theta

We have dsin theta = m*wavelength

or BC = m* wavelength = 2*490nm

= 980nm = 98.000A

A tennis ball is hit into the air with a racket. When is the balls kinetic energy the greatest?
madam [21]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is maximum when the player hits the ball.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

So kinetic energy is proportional to square of velocity.

Velocity is maximum when the player hits the ball.

So kinetic energy is maximum when the player hits the ball.

Why is friction useful between your feet and the ground?
mixer [17]

Answer:

It allows you to walk faster.

Explanation:  

It is the same force that allows you to accelerate forward when you run. Your planted foot can grip the ground and push backward, which causes the ground to push forward on your foot. We call this grip type of friction, where the surfaces are prevented from slipping across each other, a static frictional force.
