A hockey puck attached to a horizontal spring oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal surface. The spring has force constant 4.50 N/m and the oscillation period is 1.20 s. What is the mass of the puck

m = 0.164 kg

Explanation:

T (period)

k (force/spring constant)

m (mass)

T = 2*Pi*sqrt(m/k)

T/(2*Pi) = sqrt(m)/sqrt(k)

(T/(2*Pi))*sqrt(k) = sqrt(m)

m = ((T/(2*Pi))*sqrt(k))^2

m = 4.5*((1.2/(2*Pi)))^2

m = 0.1641403175

explanation:

as the height from which the ruler was dropped increased, the speed of the ruler at ryan's hand increased.

the best answer for these questions would be:

1.            c. is smaller

2.            d) concrete operational

3.            b) interaction with the environment – the children interact with their environment can them learn more.

4.            a) parents who reason openly with children can limit a child’s cognitive ability.
