Answer:

The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.

Complete question:

A 200 g load attached to a horizontal spring moves in simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.410 s. The total mechanical energy of the spring–load system is 2.00 J. Find

(a) the force constant of the spring and (b) the amplitude of the motion.

Answer:

(a) the force constant of the spring = 47 N/m

(b) the amplitude of the motion = 0.292 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the spring, m = 200g = 0.2 kg

period of oscillation, T = 0.410 s

total mechanical energy of the spring, E = 2 J

The angular speed is calculated as follows;

\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} \\\\\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.41} \\\\\omega = 15.33 \ rad/s

(a) the force constant of the spring

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\k = m \omega^2\\\\k = (0.2)(15.33)^2\\\\k = 47 \ N/m

(b) the amplitude of the motion

E = ¹/₂kA²

2E = kA²

A² = 2E/k

A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{k} } \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{47} }\\\\A = 0.292 \ m

A man has a mass of 66 kg on the earth. What is his weight.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Since force = mass X acceleration, then the force he excerts on the earth (aka his weight) equals his mass times the force of gravity.

Therefore
W = (66 kg) X (9.8 m/ss)
W = 646.8 kgm/ss

kg m/ss are also known as Newtons, so your answer is...

646.8 N

A 0.10-kg ball, traveling horizontally at 25 m/s, strikes a wall and rebounds at 19 m/s. What is the 7) magnitude of the change
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Change in momentum will be -4.4 kgm/sec

So option (A) is correct option

Explanation:

Mass of the ball is given m = 0.10 kg

Initial velocity of ball v_1=25m/sec

And velocity after rebound v_2=-19m/sec

We have to find the change in momentum

So change in momentum is equal to =m(v_2-v_1)=0.1\times (-19-25)=-4.4kgm/sec ( here negative sign shows only direction )

So option (A) will be correct answer

Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution
fredd [130]
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />

The chemical equation provided shows iron rusting to form iron oxide. Use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that wil
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

4 Fe + 3 O_2 \rightarrow 2 Fe_2 O_3

Explanation:

The original equation is:

Fe + O_2 \rightarrow Fe_2 O_3

We notice that:

- we have 1 atom of Fe on the left, and 2 atoms of Fe on the right

- we have 2 atoms of O on the left, and 3 atoms of O on the right

Therefore, the equation is not balanced.

In order to balance it, we can add:

- a coefficient 3 in front of O_2

- a coefficient 2 in front of Fe_2 O_3

So we have:

Fe + 3 O_2 \rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Now the oxygen is balanced, but the iron it not balanced yet, since we have 1 Fe on the left and 4 on the right. Therefore, we should add a coefficient 4 on the Fe on the left:

4 Fe + 3 O_2 \rightarrow 2 Fe_2 O_3
