Answer:
d = 4180.3m
wavelengt of sound is 0.251m
Explanation:
Given that
frequency of the sound is 5920 Hz
v=1485m/s
t=5.63s
let d represent distance from the vessel to the ocean bottom.
an echo travels a distance equivalent to 2d, that is to and fro after it reflects from the obstacle.
wavelengt of sound is = v/f
= (1485)/(5920)
= 0.251 m
Answer:
Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.
Explanation:
Let the spring's displacement be x.
Given the following data;
Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg
Number of shrews, n = 49
Spring constant, k = 24 N/m
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².
To find the spring's displacement;
At equilibrium position:
Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0
But, Felastic = -kx
Total mass, Mt = nm
Fg = -Mt = -nmg
-kx -nmg = 0
Rearranging, we have;
kx = -nmg
Making x the subject of formula, we have;
Substituting into the formula, we have;
x = -0.04 m
Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.
