Answer:

Explanation:

Your numbers seem wonky, so I'll just assume that the initial displacement is a distance A (Amplitude) from the equilibrium position. Spring constant = k

Initial potential energy is

PE = ½kA²

As potential energy and kinetic energy are constantly exchanging in SHM,

the position x where half of the original spring potential exists is found where

½kx² = ½(½kA²)

    x² = ½A²

    x = (√0.5)A

    x ≈ 0.707A

just plug in your actual starting position A

With A = 5.2 cm

x = 3.67695... 3.7 cm

Reptile [31]

Answer: 1.32 m/s^2

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula

a = ( v^2 ) / r

where a is centripetal acceleration, v is velocity and r is radius.

We know that,

v = 5 m/s

r = 19m

Now,

a = ( v^2 ) / r

a = ( 5^2 ) / 19

a = 25 / 19

a = 1.32 m/s^2

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 43 and its mass number is 164?
Drupady [299]
Hello, 
The mass number is protons+neutrons=mass number. In this case, we have protons+nuetron=164.The atomic number is simply the number of protons so we have 43+neutrons=164. Subtracting 43 from both sides we get nuetrons=121. Hope this helps!
