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 energy becomes 0.50 times in 6.72 s.

Let E represent the oscillator's initial energy, Et be the energy's final value at time t, where A is its beginning amplitude, At amplitude at time t, be. as the oscillator's energy increases to 0.50 times its initial value. We can replace the oscillator's total energy for the energy at time t to obtain the amplitude as shown below.

Et=0.50E

1

k(4₂)² = (0.5) - kA²

(4₂)² = (0.5) A²

At = 0.71A

So, the amplitude of the oscillator becomes 0.71 times its initial ar

0.71A = = A(0.96)¹2

log(0.71)

log(0.96)

8.4

n=

So, the time taken for n oscillation is obtained as,

t = n (0.800 s)

= (8.4) (0.800)

= 6.72 s

iren2701 [21]

Answer: As per the question, a ray of light is incident on a surface and it is partly reflected and refracted. The incident light is an unpolarised light. The reflected light is partially polarised.

If the angle of incidence becomes equal to the Brester angle (polarising angle), then the reflected light is completely plane polarised.

For the circuit in the previous part, what happens to the maximum current if the frequency is doubled and the inductance is halv
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Following are the responses to these question:

Explanation:

Since the max^{m} is the current of ckt which depend on the reactance which   inductor that also enables the ckt and inductor resistance (X_L) for capacities

\to X_{C}=\frac{1}{W L}

for

\to X_{L}=wL

When w \longrightarrow 2w

L\longrightarrow \frac{L}{2}

then

\to X_{L}=2 w \times \frac{L}{2}=wL

 therefore, X_{L} remains at the same so, the maximum current remains the in same ckt.
