Explanation:

1. Rocks are tougher and stronger as compared to wood.

2. Rocks can be naturally found in various shapes: pointed, flat etc which makes them usable as a tool right away without any major modifications. In case of wood has to be shaped into desired shape.

3. Wood is more prone to weathering due to atmospheric condition in comparison to stones.

Wood isn't as tough as rock. Wood also breaks down in weather and cracks under pressure. Plus rocks were more accessible.

A 50-cm-long spring is suspended from the ceiling. A 330 g mass is connected to the end and held at rest with the spring unstret
Nataly [62]

Answer:

a)32.34 N/m

b)10cm

c)1.6 Hz

Explanation:

Let 'k' represent spring constant

'm' mass of the object= 330g =>0.33kg

a) in order to find spring constant 'k', we apply Newton's second law to the equilibrium position 10cm below the release point.

ΣF=kx-mg=0

k=mg / x

k= (0.33 x 9.8)/ 0.1

k= 32.34 N/m

b) The amplitude, A, is the distance from the equilibrium (or center) point of motion to either its lowest or highest point (end points). The amplitude, therefore, is half of the total distance covered by the oscillating object.

Therefore, amplitude of the oscillation is 10cm

c)frequency of the oscillation can be determined by,

f= 1/2π \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

f= 1/2π \sqrt{\frac{32.34}{0.33} }

f= 1.57

f≈ 1.6 Hz

Therefore,  the frequency of the oscillation is 1.6 Hz

Answer:

Hey

Unlike visible light, X-rays can go through you without getting absorbed. But some of it gets absorbed but most of it passes through, this tiny bit that does get absorbed shows you the image of the baby.

Explain the Law of Reflection
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

angle of incidence (i) = angle of reflection (r)

So if the angle of incidence was 45°, the angle of reflection would also be 45°.
