An ideal horizontal spring-mass system oscillates with a period of 0.900 seconds. The mass is 3.00 kg but the spring constant is not known. When this same spring and mass are arranged to hang vertically, the frequency of oscillations will be: a. 0.40 Hz
b. 1.2 Hz
c. 2.5 Hz
d. none of the above are correct

Which quantities are scalars? choose all that apply a.distance b.speed c. acceleration d.velocity

Suppose a soccer ball is kicked from the ground at an angle 20.0º above the horizontal at 8.00 m/s. the y-velocity is determined to be 2.74 m/s. how long will the ball be in the air? assume the ball lands at the same height at which it was kicked.

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
