We have that the spring constant is mathematically given as

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

Generally, the equation for angular velocity is mathematically given by

\omega=\sqrt{k}{m}

Where

k=spring constant

And

\omega =\frac{2\pi}{T}

Therefore

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

Hence giving spring constant k

k=m((\frac{2 \pi}{T})^2

Generally

Mass of earth m=5.97*10^{24}

Period for on complete resolution of Earth around the Sun

T=365 days

T=365*24*3600

Therefore

k=(5.97*10^{24})((\frac{2 \pi}{365*24*3600})^2

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

In conclusion

The effective spring constant of this simple harmonic motion is

k=2.37*10^{11}N/m

Question

The density of a material is constant and it is given by the ratio of the mass to the volume of the material

The mass of the liquid and the full bottle ae

The mass of the liquid is <u>450 g</u>

The mass of the filled bottle is <u>530 grams</u>

<u></u>

The reason the above values are correct are as follows:

The given parameters are;

Volume of the bottle, V = Half litre

Mass of the bottle, m_b = 80 g

The volume of liquid in the bottle when filled, V = 500 cm³

The density of the olive oil with which the bottle is filled, ρ = 0.9 g/cm³

a. Required:

To calculate the mass of oil in the bottle

Solution:

The volume of oil in the bottle when the bottle is filled, V = 500 cm³

Density, \ \rho = \dfrac{Mass}{Volume}  = \dfrac{m}{V}

The mass of the liquid, m = ρ × V

∴ m = 0.9 g/cm³ × 500 cm³ = 450 g

The mass of the liquid, m = <u>450 g</u>

<u></u>

b. The mass of the oil in the bottle, m = grams

The mass of the full bottle, m_{filled} = m + m_b

∴ m_{filled} = 450 g + 80 g = 530 g

The mass of the full bottle, m_{filled} = <u>530 grams</u>

In a game of basketball, a forward makes a bounce pass to the center. The ball is thrown with an initial speed of 4.8 m/s at an
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
The equation to be used here is the trajectory of a projectile as written below:

y = xtanθ +/- gx²/2v²(cosθ)²
where
y is the vertical distance
x is the horizontal distance
θ is the angle of trajectory or launch angle
g is 9.81 m/s²
v is the initial velcity

Since the angle is below horizontal, let's use the minus equation. Substituting the values:

- 0.8 m = xtan15° - (9.81 m/s²)x²/2(4.8 m/s)²(cos15°)²
Solving for x,
x = 2.549 m

However, we only take half of this distance because it was specified that the distance asked before bouncing. Hence, the horizontal distance is equal to 1.27 m.
