block of mass 0.5kg on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass and spring constant 50N/m . Th

e other end of the spring is attached to a wall, and there is negligible friction between the block and the horizontal surface. When the spring is unstretched, the block is located at x=0m . The block is then pulled to x=0.3m and released from rest so that the block-spring system oscillates between x=−0.3m and x=0.3m . What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block and the direction of the net force exerted on the block when it is located at x=0.3m ?

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the block is 0.5kg

m = 0.5kg.

The spring constant is 50N/m

k =50N/m.

When the spring is stretch to 0.3m

e=0.3m

The spring oscillates from -0.3 to 0.3m

Therefore, amplitude is A=0.3m

Magnitude of acceleration and the direction of the force

The angular frequency (ω) is given as

ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(50/0.5)

ω = √100

ω = 10rad/s

The acceleration of a SHM is given as

a = -ω²A

a = -10²×0.3

a = -30m/s²

Since we need the magnitude of the acceleration,

Then, a = 30m/s²

To know the direction of net force let apply newtons second law

ΣFnet = ma

Fnet = 0.5 × -30

Fnet = -15N

Fnet = -15•i N

The net force is directed to the negative direction of the x -axis

A photon is scattered from an initially stationary electron within a metal. How does the frequency of the photon change upon sca
sammy [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering

Explanation:

Here we note that when a photon is scattered by a charged particle, it is referred to as Compton scattering.

Compton scattering results in a reduction of the energy of the photon and hence an increase in the wavelength (from λ to λ') of the photon known as Compton effect.

Therefore, since the wavelength increases, we have from

λf = λ'f' = c

f = c/λ

Where:

f and f' = The frequency of the motion of the photon before and after the scattering

c = Speed of light (constant)

We have that the frequency, f, is inversely proportional to the wavelength, λ as follows;

f = c/λ

As λ = increases, and c is constant, f decreases, therefore, the frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering.

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

A seaplane flies horizontally over the ocean at 50 meters/second. It releases a buoy, which lands after 21 seconds. What's the v
pantera1 [17]
The motion of the buoy consists of two independent motions on the horizontal and vertical axis.

On the horizontal axis, the motion of the buoy is a uniform motion with constant speed v=50 m/s. On the vertical axis, the motion of the buoy is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2. The vertical position of the buoy at time t is given by
y(t)=h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2
where h is the initial heigth of the buoy when it is released from the plane. At the time t=21 s, the buoy reaches the ground, so y(21 s)=0. If we substitute these two numbers inside the equation, we can find the value of h, the vertical displacement from the plane to the ocean:
0=h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2
h= \frac{1}{2}gt^2= \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(21 s)^2=2163 m

A steel sphere sits on top of an aluminum ring. The steel sphere (a= 1.1 x 10^-5/degrees celsius) has a diameter of 4.000 cm at
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will need to develop an expression that relates the diameter 'd', at temperature T equals the original diameter d₀ (at 0 degrees) plus the change in diameter from the temperature increase ( ΔT = T):

d = d₀ + d₀αT

for the sphere, we were given

D₀ = 4.000 cm

α = 1.1 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius

we have D = 4 + (4x(1.1 x 10⁻⁵)T = 4 + (4.4x10⁻⁵)T             EQN 1

Similarly for the Aluminium ring we have

we were given

d₀ = 3.994 cm

α = 2.4 x 10⁻⁵/degrees celsius

we have d = 3.994 + (3.994x(2.4 x 10⁻⁵)T = 3.994 + (9.58x10⁻⁵)T       EQN 2

Since @ the temperature T at which the sphere fall through the ring, d=D

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2

4 + (4.4x10⁻⁵)T =3.994 + (9.58x10⁻⁵)T, collect like terms

0.006=5.18x10⁻⁵T

T=115.7K
