The frequency of the oscillation in hertz is calculated to be 0.00031 Hz.

The frequency of a wave is defined as the number of cycles completed per second while the period refers to the time taken to complete a cycle. The frequency is the inverse of period.

So;

Period(T) = 54 minutes or 3240 seconds

Frequency (f) = T-1 = 1/T = 1/3240 seconds = 0.00031 Hz

A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1350 V. What is the proton's kinetic energy, in elect

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1 eV = 1.60 * 10^-19 J work done in accelerating electron thru 1 V

KE (total energy) = 1350 ^ 1 eV (note proton goes from + to -)

KE = 1.60 * 10^-19 * 1350 = 2.16 * 10^-16 Joules

1/2 m v^2 = KE = 2.16 * 10^-16 J

v^2 = 4.32 * 10E-16 / 1.67 * 10-27 = 2.59 * 10^11

v = 5.09 * 10^5 m/s

A mass of 10 g of oxygen fill a weighted pistonâ€“cylinder device at 20 kPa and 110Â°C. The device is now cooled until the tempe

mezya [45]

Answer:

The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is $14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of oxygen = 10 g

Pressure = 20 kPa

Initial temperature = 110°C

Final temperature = 0°C

We need to calculate the change of the volume of the device during this cooling

Using formula of change volume

$\Delta V=V_{2}-V_{1}$

$\Delta V=\dfrac{mR}{P}(T_{2}-T_{1})$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta V=\dfrac{0.3125\times0.0821}{2.0265\times10^{9}}(383-273)$

$\Delta V=14.297\ L$

$\Delta V=14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Hence, The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is $14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

HELP PLEASE!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!! If you answer this correctly ill answer some of your questions you have posted! (20pts)

anyanavicka [17]

Explanation:

potential energy =360800J

mass(m)=?

height (h)=25m

g=9.8m/s²

we have

potential energy =360800J

mgh=360800J

m×9.8×25=360800

m=360800/(9.8×25)=1472.653061kg

A thin uniform rod (length = 1.2 m, mass = 2.0 kg) is pivoted about a horizontal, frictionless pin through one end of the rod. (

Anika [276]

Answer:

$a=9.8 rad/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Torque, $\tau$ is given by

$\tau=Fr$ where F is force and r is perpendicular distance

$R=0.5Lcos\theta$ where $\theta$ is the angle of inclination

Torque, $\tau$ can also be found by

$\tau=Ia$ where I is moment of inertia and a is angular acceleration

Therefore, Fr=Ia and F=mg where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

Making a the subject, $a=\frac {Fr}{I}=\frac {mgr}{I}$ and already I is given as

$I=\frac {mL^{2}}{3} and r is 0.5Lcos\theta$ hence

$a=\frac {0.5mgLcos\theta}{1/3 mL^{2}}$

$a=\frac {3gcos\theta}{2L}$

Taking g as 9.81, $\theta$ is given as 37 and L is 1.2

$a=\frac {3*9.81cos37}{2*1.2}=9.7932679419$

$a=9.8 rad/s^{2}$
