A type of cuckoo clock keeps time by having a mass bouncing on a spring, usually something cute like a cherub in a chair. What force constant is needed to produce a period of 0.500 s for a 0.0150-kg mass

the force constant  k = 2.369 N/m

Explanation:

Given that:

A type of cuckoo clock keeps time by having a mass bouncing on a spring, usually something cute like a cherub in a chair.

with period T = 0.500 s and a mass of 0.0150 kg, Then the force constant can be calculated by using the formula:

where;

T = time period

m = mass

k = force constant.

By making k the subject of the formula; we have:

replacing our given values , we have:

k = 2.369 N/m

scientific laws are the result of testing theories and proving them to be facts.

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
