An object of mass m is hung from a spring and set into oscillation. The period of the oscillation is measured and recorded as T.
sergejj [24]

Answer:\sqrt{2}T

Explanation:

Given

object of mass m is suspended from spring and set in oscillation with time Period T

We know Time period of a mass in oscillation is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

where k=spring constant

When mass m is replaced by a mass of 2 m time period is given by

T'=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2m}{k}}

T'=\sqrt{2}\times 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

T'=\sqrt{2}T

i.e. New time period becomes \sqrt{2} times of previous one

An amateur player is about to throw a dart with an initial velocity of 15 meters/second onto a dartboard that is at a distance o
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

B. 0.16 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance by which the player will miss the target is equal to the vertical distance covered by the dart during its motion.

Since the dart is thrown horizontally, the initial vertical velocity is zero:

v_y = 0

While the horizontal velocity is

v_x = 15 m/s

The horizontal distance covered is

d_x = 2.7 m

Since the dart moves by uniform motion along the horizontal direction, the time it takes for covering this distance is

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\frac{2.7 m}{15 m/s}=0.18 s

along the vertical direction, the motion is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant downward acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, so the vertical distance covered is given by

d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^)(0.18 s)^2=0.16 m

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!

John runs 120 meters in 10 seconds and then runs back to where he started in another 10 seconds. Which statement is true? Rememb
atroni [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

<em>A. His speed is 0 m/s </em>

<em>B. His velocity is 12 m/s </em>

<em>C. His velocity is 0 m/s </em>

<em>D. His acceleration is 12 m/s</em>

Total distance traveled by John = 120 + 120 = 240 meters

Total time taken by John to cover the distance = 10 + 10 = 20 s

<em>Average speed of John = total distance traveled/total time taken</em>

      = 240/20 = 12 m/s

Hence, the average speed/velocity of John throughout the journey is 12 m/s.

The correct option is B.
