A 8.00-kg object is hung from the bottom end of a vertical spring fastened to an overhead beam. The object is set into vertical
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

109.32 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the hung object, m = 8 kg

Period of oscillation of object, T = 1.7 s

Force constant, k = ?

Recall that the period of oscillation of a Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

T = 2π √(m/k), where

T = period of oscillation

m = mass of object and

k = force constant if the spring

Since we are looking for the force constant, if we make "k" the subject of the formula, we have

k = 4π²m / T², now we go ahead to substitute our given values from the question

k = (4 * π² * 8) / 1.7²

k = 315.91 / 2.89

k = 109.32 N/m

Therefore, the force constant of the spring is 109.32 N/m

HELP! Can an object that is in motion have balanced forces? Explain your answer
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Newton's first law says that an object in motion stays in motion and an object at rest stays at rest until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

If an object in motion has balanced forces, it will stay in motion.  For example, if an object is falling at terminal velocity (for example, a parachuter), then the force of gravity is equal and opposite to the force of air resistance.  The forces are balanced, and the object continues to fall at a constant speed.

A solid metal object hangs from a force sensor by a thread in the open air, and the actual weight is measured to be 0.71 N. Then
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The apparent weight of the object is 0.465 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight = 0.71 N

Water level = 50 mL

object inserted = 75 mL

We need to calculate the volume of solid

Using formula of volume

V=25\ ml = 25\times10^{-6}\ m^3

We need to calculate the buoyancy force

Using formula of buoyancy force

F'= V\rho g

Put the value into the formula

F'=25\times10^{-6}\times1000\times9.8

F'=0.245\ N

We need to calculate the apparent weight of the object

Using formula of apparent weight

W=F-F'

Put the value into the formula

W=0.71-0.245

W=0.465\ N

Hence, The apparent weight of the object is 0.465 N.

Compare the atmospheres of Mars and Venus. Mars is rich in oxygen, like ours, accounting for its red surface. Like Earth, nitrog
enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

Venus's atmosphere is very thick, dry and hot whereas Mars's atmosphere is very thin and cold.

Both Venus's and Mars's atmospheres are about 95 percent carbon dioxide.

The surface temperature of Venus is around 890 degrees F, the hottest average temperature in the Solar System. This is due to abundance of greenhouse gasses. The atmosphere of Venus is composed of 97% CO2, 2% N2 and less than 1% of O2, H2O and CH4 (methane). Since CO2 is a major greenhouse gas, the radiation from the Sun is trapped in the atmosphere of Venus producing an extremely high surface temperature.

Mars has an atmospheric composition of 95% CO2, 3% N2, 2% Ar and less than 1% O2.A high noble gas content implies that Mar's atmosphere was much thicker in the past (noble gases do not react with other elements and are heavy enough to stay within the gravitational field of Mars). The climate on Mars is very desert-like due to its thin atmosphere. There is too little mass in the atmosphere to hold in heat so the warmest daytime temperatures are around 50 degrees F, but the nighttime temperatures are -170 degrees F. Other weather features are massive dust storms and occasional CO2 fog in the canyons.
