A2.14 kg block resting on a frictionless surface is attached to an ideal spring with spring constant k = 252 nm . the block is pushed to compress the spring by 9.08 cm from its equilibrium position. while the spring is being compressed, find (a) the work done by the spring and (b) the work done by the applied force.

Amachine, modeled as a simple spring-mass system, oscillates in simple harmonic motion. its acceleration is measured to have an amplitude of 5,000 mm/s with a fre- quency of 10 hz. compute the maximum displacement the machine undergoes during this oscillation.

Why do electron microscopes have higher resolving power than light microscopes?

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?
