A block attached to a spring with an unknown spring constant oscillates with a period of 2.0 s. What is the period if

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

a) If the mass is doubled, then the period is increased by $\sqrt{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 2.828 seconds.

b) If the mass is halved, then the period is reduced by $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 1.414 seconds.

c) The period of the system does not depend on amplitude. Hence, the period of the system is 2 seconds.

d) If the spring constant is doubled, then the period is reduced by $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 1.414 seconds.

Explanation:

The statement is incomplete. We proceed to present the complete statement: <em>A block attached to a spring with unknown spring constant oscillates with a period of 2.00 s. What is the period if </em><em>a. </em><em>The mass is doubled? </em><em>b.</em><em> The mass is halved? </em><em>c.</em><em> The amplitude is doubled? </em><em>d.</em><em> The spring constant is doubled? </em>

We have a block-spring system, whose angular frequency ( $\omega$ ) is defined by the following formula:

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$ (1)

Where:

$k$ - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.

$m$ - Mass, measured in kilograms.

And the period ( $T$ ), measured in seconds, is determined by the following expression:

$T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$ (2)

By applying (1) in (2), we get the following formula:

$T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

a) If the mass is doubled, then the period is increased by $\sqrt{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 2.828 seconds.

b) If the mass is halved, then the period is reduced by $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 1.414 seconds.

c) The period of the system does not depend on amplitude. Hence, the period of the system is 2 seconds.

d) If the spring constant is doubled, then the period is reduced by $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ . Hence, the period of the system is 1.414 seconds.

A 80 W light bulb (normally run at 120 V) is attached to a transformer. The voltage source in the transformer is 65 V and Np = 3

Marina CMI [18]

67.8 turns needed by the secondary coil to run the bulb.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know that,

$\text { Electric power }(p)=\frac{V^{2}}{R}$

$\text { Hence, } \frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2} / R}{V_{2}^{2} / R}$

$\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

For calculating number of turns

$\frac{N_{P}}{N_{S}}=\frac{V_{P}}{V_{S}}$

Given that,

$80 \mathrm{W}\left(P_{1}\right) \text { bulb with voltage } 120 \mathrm{V}\left(V_{1}\right) \text { is connected to a transformer. }$

$\text { The source voltage of a transformer is }\left(V_{P}\right) \text { is } 65 \mathrm{V}$

$\text { The number of turns in primary winding of transformer is }\left(N_{P}\right) \text { is } 30 .$

We need to find the number of turns in the secondary winding $\left(N_{S}\right)$ to run the bulb at 120W $\left(P_{2}\right)$

Firstly find the secondary voltage in the transformer use, $\frac{P_{1}}{P_{2}}=\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

$\frac{80}{120}=\frac{120^{2}}{V_{2}^{2}}$

$V_{2}^{2}=\frac{120^{2} \times 120}{80}$

$V_{2}^{2}=\frac{1728000}{80}$

$V_{2}^{2}=21600$

$V_{2}=\sqrt{21600}$

$V_{2}=146.9 \mathrm{V}=V_{S}$

Now, finding the number of turns in secondary coil. Use, $\frac{N_{P}}{N_{S}}=\frac{V_{P}}{V_{S}}$

$\frac{30}{N_{S}}=\frac{65}{146.9}$

$N_{S}=\frac{30 \times 146.9}{65}$

$N_{S}=\frac{4407}{65}$ $N_{S}=67.8$

The number of turns in the secondary winding are 67.8 turns.
