Answer:
a) 12.8 N
b) 3.2 m/s²
Explanation:
I'm guessing the period is 0.5π s.
Period of a spring in simple harmonic motion is:
T = 2π √(m/k)
Given T = 0.5π and m = 2 kg:
0.5π = 2π √(2/k)
0.25 = √(2/k)
0.0625 = 2/k
k = 32
The spring constant is 32 N/m, and the maximum displacement is 0.4 m. The maximum force can be found with Hooke's law:
F = kx
F = (32 N/m) (0.4 m)
F = 12.8 N
The acceleration can be found with Newton's second law:
∑F = ma
kx = ma
(32 N/m) (0.2 m) = (2 kg) a
a = 3.2 m/s²
Answer:
The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m
Explanation:
Given
The initial height of the cliff
yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff
y = yo + ut -1/2gt²
u = 20.0m/s initial speed
g = 9.80m/s²
0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²
0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²
Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,
t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s
So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.
The distance traveled by the woman is
s = vt
Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s
Therefore
s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m
Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

Answer:
Force on the singly charged ion will be
Explanation:
We have given electric field E = 8 MN/C
So electric field in N/C will be 
It is given that ion so charge on ion will be equal to 
We have to find the electric force on the ion
Electric force is equal to
, here q is charge and E is electric field
So force on the charge will be equal to 
So force on the singly charged ion will be
