Answer:

The unknown mass is 3.87 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

spring constant of the spring, k = 13.6 N/m

period of oscillation, T = 3.35 s

The period of oscillation of the mass-spring system is given by;

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

where;

m is the mass attached to the spring

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }\\\\\frac{T}{2\pi} = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }\\\\\frac{T^2}{4\pi^2}= \frac{m}{k}\\\\m = \frac{kT^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\m = \frac{(13.6)(3.35)^2}{4\pi^2}\\\\m = 3.87 \ kg

Therefore, the unknown mass is 3.87 kg.

Why is the overall charge on an atom neutral?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The overall charge on a neutral atom is zero.

A neutral atoms contains equal number of electrons and protons.The charge of a proton and electron is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. A proton has a charge of 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C and the charge of an electron is -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C. Thus in a neutral atom, the charge of all the protons gets cancelled with the charge of all the electrons.

Thus a neutral atom has a net zero charge.

How do free-body force diagrams help you determine an object’s direction of motion?
finlep [7]
FBD provides a visual for every force that the object experiences. It can tell you the direction by showing the direction and magnitude of the forces. You can calculate the net force, example being that the applied force is 300N and the force of friction is 100N, the net force is 200N in the direction of the applied force. (Fnet= Fa- Ff).

What happens when the fuel in a car engine combustion?​
Trava [24]

In a spark ignition engine, the fuel is mixed with air and then inducted into the cylinder during the intake process. After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.
