Answer:
The time constant is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The spring constant is 
The mass of the ball is 
The amplitude of the oscillation t the beginning is 
The amplitude after time t is 
The number of oscillation is 
Generally the time taken to attain the second amplitude is mathematically represented as
Here T is the period of oscillation

=> 
=> 
Generally the amplitude at time t is mathematically represented as

Here a is the damping constant so
at
, 
So

=> 
taking natural log of both sides
=>
=> 
Generally the time constant is mathematically represented as
=>
=>
Answer:
A. absorb heat energy and move farther apart
Explanation:
The answer is A since when a ice cube takes in heat, it changes form and melts down to a liquid : water.
The molecules in water are farther apart since they are moving around alot but can be contained in a container.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The force of tension exerted by the string on the rock acts as centripetal force, so its direction is always towards the centre of the circle.
However, the direction of motion of the rock is always tangential to the circle: this means that the force is always perpendicular to the direction of motion of the rock.
As we know, the work done by a force on an object is

where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement of the object
is the angle between the force and the displacement
In this situation, F and d are perpendicular, so
, therefore
and the work done is zero:
