When an object oscillating in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position, which of the

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

E. Zero Maximum

Explanation:

At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:

- The restoring force is given by $F=kx$ , where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well

- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:

$E=K+U=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).

A single loop of nickel wire, lying flat in a plane, has an area of 7.40 cm^2 and a resistance of 2.40 Ω. A uniform magnetic fie

ale4655 [162]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of nickel wire, $A=7.4\ cm^2=7.4\times 10^{-4}\ m^2$

Resistance of the wire, R = 2.4 ohms

Initial value of magnetic field, $B_1=0.5\ T$

Final magnetic field, $B_2=3\ T$

Time, t = 1.12 s

Let I is the induced current in the loop of wire over this time. Te emf induced in the wire is given by Faraday's law as :

$\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$

$\epsilon=-\dfrac{d(BA)}{dt}$

$\epsilon=-A\dfrac{d(B)}{dt}$

$\epsilon=-A\dfrac{B_2-B_1}{t}$

$\epsilon=-7.4\times 10^{-4}\times \dfrac{3-0.5}{1.12}$

$\epsilon=1.65\times 10^{-3}\ V$

Induced current in the loop of wire is given by :

$I=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{1.65\times 10^{-3}}{2.4}$

$I=6.87\times 10^{-4}\ A$

So, the induced current in the loop of wire over this time is $6.87\times 10^{-4}\ A$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

6.04788 in

$115.82654\ in^3$

78.38779 m/s

0.88159 kg

34.55294 J

Explanation:

Circumference is given by

$c=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{c}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{19}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=3.02394\ in$

Diameter is given by

$d=2r\\\Rightarrow d=2\times 3.02394\\\Rightarrow d=6.04788\ in$

The diameter is 6.04788 in

$6.04788\times 2.54=15.3616152\ cm$

Volume of sphere is given by

$v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi 3.02394^3\\\Rightarrow v=115.82654\ in^3$

The volume is $115.82654\ in^3$

$115.82654\times \dfrac{1}{1728}=0.06702\ ft^3$

Fall velocity is given by

$V=k\sqrt{d}\\\Rightarrow V=20\sqrt{15.3616152}\\\Rightarrow V=78.38779\ m/s$

The velocity of the fall will be 78.38779 m/s

Mass is given by

$m=\rho v\\\Rightarrow m=29\times 0.06702\\\Rightarrow m=1.94358\ lb$

$1.94358\ lb=1.94358\times \dfrac{1}{2.20462}=0.88159\ kg$

The mass is 0.88159 kg

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}0.88159\times 78.38779\\\Rightarrow K=34.55294\ J$

The kinetic energy is 34.55294 J
