Hi there!

Recall that the amplitude of an oscillating system occurs at a point of maximum potential energy.

For a spring system, potential energy is given as:
U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

U = Potential Energy (J)

k = Spring constant (N/m)
x = amplitude (m)

We can rearrange the equation to solve for amplitude more easily.

U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\2U = kx^2\\\\x^2 = \frac{2U}{k}\\\\x = \sqrt{\frac{2U}{k}}

If we double 'U':
x' = \sqrt{\frac{2(2U)}{k}} = \sqrt{2}*\sqrt{\frac{2U}{k}}\\\\x' = \sqrt{2} * x

Thus, the new amplitude would be √2 times greater, so:
20 cm \cdot \sqrt{2} = \boxed{28.284 cm}

En la Tierra, una balanza muestra que tu peso es 585 N.
ra1l [238]

Answer:

a) m = 59.63 [kg]

b) Wm = 95.41 [N]

Explanation:

El peso de un cuerpo se define como el producto de la masa por la aceleración gravitacional. DE esta manera tenemos:

W = m*g

Donde:

m = masa [kg]

g = gravedad = 9.81 [m/s^2]

m = W / g

m = 585 / 9.81

m = 59.63 [kg]

Es importante aclarar que la masa se conserva independientemente de la ubicación del cuerpo en el espacio.

Por ende su masa sera la misma en la luna.

El peso en la luna se calcula como Wm y es igual a:

Wm = 59.63 * 1.6 = 95.41 [N]

A 1.40 mH inductor and a 1.00 µF capacitor are connected in series. The current in the circuit is described by I = 14.0 t, where
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inductance L = 1.4 x 10⁻³ H

Capacitance C = 1 x 10⁻⁶ F

a )

current I = 14 .0 t

dI / dt  = 14

voltage across inductor

= L dI / dt

= 1.4 x 10⁻³ x 14

= 19.6 x 10⁻³ V

= 19.6 mV

It does not depend upon time because it is constant at 19.6 mV.

b )

Voltage across capacitor

V = ∫ dq / C

= 1 / C ∫ I dt  

= 1 / C ∫ 14 t dt

1 / C x 14 t² / 2

= 7 t² / C

= 7 t² / 1 x 10⁻⁶

c ) Let after time t energy stored in capacitor becomes equal the energy stored in capacitance

energy stored in inductor

= 1/2 L I²

energy stored in capacitor

= 1/2 CV²

After time t

1/2 L I² = 1/2 CV²

L I² =  CV²

L x ( 14 t )² = C x  ( 7 t² / C )²

L x 196 t² = 49 t⁴ / C

t² = CL x 196 / 49

t = 74.8 μ s

After 74.8 μ s energy stored in capacitor exceeds that of inductor.

inysia [295]

Answer:

Best explains Jamming

Explanation:

<em>The deliberate radiation of electromagnetic (EM) energy to degrade or neutralize the radio frequency long-haul supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) communications links, best explains what?</em>

Jamming is defined as the blocking or interference with authorized wireless communications. it's a problem  in personal area network wireless technologies. Jamming can occur inadvertently due to high levels of noise .

Jammers can send radio signals to interfere or disrupt communication flows by by decreasing the signal-to-noise ratio.They use radio frequency to interfere with communications by keeping it busy.
