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

givi [52]

Answer:0.667 N

Explanation:

Given

It is noticed that Frictional Force is 0.2 N

Coefficient of kinetic Friction $\mu _k=0.3$

We know Friction Force is given by

$f_r=\mu _k\times Normal\ reaction$

therefore

$0.2=\mu _k\times N$

$0.2=0.3\cdot N$

$N=\frac{0.2}{0.3}$

$N=0.667 N$

A 1-lb block and a 100-lb block are placed side by side at the top of a frictionless hill. Each is given a very light tap to beg

qwelly [4]

Answer:

(c). The two blocks end in a tie

Explanation:

the reason being the absence of any resistance offered to both of the blocks.

if the slope of the hill is for instance 60 deg.

then the acceleration in absence of any resistance is a= 9.81sin(60)

since the acceleration is same then both of the blocks will reach at the same instant

I believe it is because of weight if Timmy is larger and bigger than Maria that would mean he would stop slower just because of his bodyweight pushing on the back of the skateboard while Maria is all those skinny and she doesn’t have as much weight as she can go farther
