A generation is about one-third of a lifetime. Approximately how many generations have passed during the last 2,000 years?

Assume that the average life expectancy is about 72 years, according to recently published data.
Therefore a generation is
72/3 = 24 years.

Therefore over the last 2,000years, the number of generations that have passed is
2000/24 = 83.3

Answer: 83 generations

You hang different masses M from the lower end of a vertical spring and measure the period T for each value of M. You use Excel

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

a)693.821N/m

b)17.5g

Explanation:

We the Period T we can find the constant k,

That is

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

squaring on both sides,

$T^2=\frac{4\pi^2}{k}M +\frac{4\pi^2}{k}m_{spring}$

where,

M=hanging mass, m = spring mass,

k =spring constant

T =time period

a) So for the equation we can compare, that is,

$y=T^2=0.0569x+0.0010$

the hanging mass M is x here, so comparing the equation we know that

$\frac{4\pi^2}{k}=0.0569\\k= \frac{4\pi^2}{0.0569}\\k=693.821N/m$

b) In order to find the mass of the spring we make similar process, so comparing,

$\frac{4\pi^2}{k}m =0.001\\m=\frac{0.004k}{4\pi^2} =\frac{0.001*693.821}{4\pi^2}\\m=0.0175kg\\m=17.5g$

Julli [10]

The two forces should be equal therefore:

2.10 * Fa = Fa + 2 * F * cos 18

simplifying the right side:

2.10 * Fa = Fa + 1.902 * F

1.10 Fa = 1.902 F

<span>F / Fa = 0.578</span>

What is the wavelength of light waves if their frequency is 5.0x1014 Hz and the speed of light 3 x

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

D. 0.60 um

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency = 5.0x10^14 Hz

Speed = 3 x 10^8 m/s

To find the wavelength;

Wavelength = speed/frequency

Substituting into the equation, we have

Wavelength = 3 x 10^8/5.0x10^14

Wavelength = 6 × 10^7m

But 1 meter (m) = 1000000 micrometer (um)

6 × 10^7 meter = 0.6 micrometer.
