Which of the following changes will increase the period of an oscillating spring mass system?

Physics
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. an increase in the mass on the spring.

Explanation:

An increase in the mass on the spring will increase the period of an oscillating spring mass system.

Mathematically, the period of an oscillating spring mass system is given by the formula;

T = 2π √(m/k)

Where;

T is the period.

m is the mass of the spring.

k is the spring constant.

Hence, the mass of a spring is directly proportional to the period of oscillation of the spring.

This ultimately implies that, as the mass of the spring increases, the period of oscillation will increase. Similarly, the period of oscillation will decrease with an increase in the spring constant.

To tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.50•10^6 N, one at an angle 19.0° west of north, a
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Work done by a tug boat, W = 1.735 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

Given,

The of each tugboat, F = 1.5 x 10⁶ N

The angle of each tugboat forms with the resultant force, θ = 19°

The displacement of the supertanker, s = 710 m

The individual tugboat will be responsible for the displacement, d = 710/2

                                                                                                               = 355 m

The displacement component in each tugboat direction = 355 · sin θ meter

Therefore, the work done by each tugboat is

                                           W = F x S    joules

Substituting the values in the above equation

                                            W = 1.5 x 10⁶  x  355 · sin θ

                                                = 1.735 x 10⁸ J

Hence, the work done by each tugboat is, W = 1.735 x 10⁸ J

Consider two blocks of copper. Block A contains 800 atoms and initially has a total of 20 quanta of energy. Block B contains 200
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Option B and Option D are true

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of atoms in block A = 800

Energy content in block A = 20 quanta

Number of atoms in block B = 200

Energy content in block B = 80 quanta

The energy of a system which is an extensive quantity,depends on the mass or number of moles of the system. However, at equilibrium, the energy density of the two copper blocks will be equal. That is, each atom of Cu in the two blocks will, on average, have the same energy. Because block A has 4 times more atoms than block B, it will have 4 times more quanta of energy. Thus, option B is therefore true while option A is false.

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms in a material. Now, if each atom in blocks A and B have the same average energy, then the temperatures of blocks A and B will be equal at equilibrium. Thus, option D is true.

Entropy of a system is an extensive quantity that depends on the the mass or number of atoms in the system. Because block A is bigger than block B, it will have higher entropy. However, that the specific entropy (the entropy per mole or per unit mass) is an intensive quantity -- it is independent of the size of a system. The molar entropy of blocks A and B are equal at equilibrium. Thus option C is false.

A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) ______ current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.
jok3333 [9.3K]

<u>Rated </u>

A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) <u>Rated</u> current capacity current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.

<h3>What is "current rating"?</h3>
  • The greatest current that a fuse is rated to carry for an infinite duration without significantly degrading the fuse element is known as the current rating.
  • There is also a large selection of power switching transistors that have voltage ratings well over 1000V and current ratings up to several hundred amps.

<h3>What does the term "rated current" mean?</h3>
  • When an electrical device receives its rated voltage and outputs its rated power, it flows at its rated current.
  • So, when a device is designed for a certain amperage, that amperage is referred to as the equipment's rated current.

<h3>What does electrical "rated" mean?</h3>
  • An electrical appliance's rating reveals the voltage range at which it is intended to operate as well as the current consumption at that range.
  • These numbers are typically shown on a rating plate that is fastened to the device, such as 230 volts, 3 amps.

Radioactivity is a part of our earth - it has existed all along. Naturally occurring radioactive materials are present in its crust, the floors and walls of our homes, schools, or offices and in the food we eat and drink. There are radioactive gases in the air we breathe. Our own bodies - muscles, bones, and tissue - contain naturally occurring radioactive elements.
