A mass M is suspended from a spring and oscillates with a period of 0.840 s. Each complete oscillation results in an amplitude r

eduction of a factor of 0.96 due to a small velocity dependent frictional effect.
Calculate the time it takes for the total energy of the oscillator to decrease to 0.50 of its initial value (The amplitude after N oscillations=(initial amplitude)x(factor)^N).

The time it takes for the total energy of the oscillator to decrease to 0.50 of its initial value

t= 14.448 s

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is an oscillator?</h3>

An electronic oscillator is a circuit that generates a periodic, oscillating electronic signal. This signal is often a sine wave, but it may also be a square wave or a triangle wave. Oscillators are devices that change the direct current that is supplied by a power source into an alternating current signal.

Generally, the equation for amplitude  is  mathematically given as

A_n = A_0(0.96)^n

equal to the half-energy amplitude

A_0(0.96)^n =\frac{ A_0}{\sqrt{2}}

lnA_0(0.96)^n = ln\frac{Ao}{\sqrt{2}}

ln(A_0)+n*ln(0.98) = ln(A_0)-ln(\sqrt{2})

n = 17.2

In conclusion, the time is

t = nT

t= 14.448 s

A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

15.75 m

Explanation:

First, let's look at the top brick by itself.  In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick.  So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.

Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass.  We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m.  And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge.  So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

What causes earth to have a complete year
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Earth's Tilt and The Seasons. Earth, like all of the planets in the Solar System, travels around the Sun. One complete orbit of the Sun is known as a year and it takes Earth 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds to complete an orbit. The changing seasons are caused by the fact that Earth is tilted. please vote me brainliest i can't message no one cuz i haven't got enough points i'm desperate.

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s  b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

  • Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
  • This work, is just 4,475 J.
  • So we can write the following equation:

        \Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J

  • where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
  • So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

        v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} }  = 1.89 m/s

b)

  • The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

        W = F*d

  • We can solve for F, as follows:

        F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} =  172.1 N
