A mass m is attached to an ideal massless spring with spring constant k. In experiment 1 the mass oscillates with amplitude a, a

nd period t. A student grabs the mass and brings it to rest before starting experiment 2. In experiment 2, the mass is set to oscillate with a larger amplitude of 3a. What is the period of the oscillation in experiment 2?.

Time period remains the same in both the experiment as change in amplitude does not affect time period.

What are the factors on which time period depends in SHM?

Time period is given by:

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

where,

T = time period

m = mass

k = spring constant

In a straightforward harmonic motion, we see from the preceding formula that the time period depends only on the object's mass and spring constant (SHM). The time period will adjust to any variations in the object's mass or the spring constant.

What is Spring Constant?

A spring's "spring constant" is a property that quantifies the relationship between the force acting on the spring and the displacement it produces. In other words, it characterises a spring's stiffness and the extent of its range of motion.

A particle of mass 4.00 kg is attached to a spring with a force constant of 100 N/m. It is oscillating on a frictionless, horizo
zloy xaker [14]

Solution :

Given :

Mass attached to the spring = 4 kg

Mass dropped = 6 kg

Force constant = 100 N/m

Initial amplitude = 2 m

Therefore,

a). $v_{initial} = A w$

          $= 2 \times \sqrt{\frac{100}{4}}$

          = 10 m/s

Final velocity, v at equilibrium position, v = 5 m/s

Now, $\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 = \frac{1}{2} kA'$

A' = amplitude = 1.4142 m

b). $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

    m' = 2m

    Hence, $T'=\sqrt2 T$

c). $\frac{\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 + \frac{1}{2}\times 4 \times 10^2}{\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 10^2}$

  $=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, factor $=\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the energy will change half times as the result of the collision.

A boy throws a ball up into the air with a speed of 8.2 m/s. The ball has a mass of 0.3 kg. How much gravitational potential ene
diamong [38]
We can use the law of conservation of energy to solve the problem.

The total mechanical energy of the system at any moment of the motion is:
E=U+K = mgh + \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where U is the potential energy and K the kinetic energy.

At the beginning of the motion, the ball starts from the ground so its altitude is h=0 and therefore its potential energy U is zero. So, the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy:
E_i = K_i =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(0.3 kg)(8.2 m/s)^2=10.09 J

When the ball reaches the maximum altitude of its flight, it starts to go down again, so its speed at that moment is zero: v=0. So, its kinetic energy at the top is zero. So the total mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E_f = U_f
But the mechanical energy must be conserved, Ef=Ei, so we have
U_f = K_i
and so, the potential energy at the top of the flight is
U_f = K_i = 10.09 J

You may have noticed runaway truck lanes while driving in the mountains. These gravel-filled lanes are designed to stop trucks t
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The  coefficient of kinetic friction  \mu_k =  0.724

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  length of the lane is  l =  36.0 \  m

    The speed of the truck is  v  =  22.6\  m/s

     

Generally from the work-energy theorem we have that  

    \Delta KE  =   N  *  \mu_k *  l

Here N  is the normal force acting on the truck which is mathematically represented as

     \Delta KE is the change in kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

        \Delta KE =  \frac{1}{2} *  m *  v^2

=>     \Delta KE =  0.5  *  m *  22.6^2

=>      \Delta KE =  255.38m

        255.38m =    m *  9.8  *  \mu_k *   36.0

=>     255.38  =    352.8  *  \mu_k

=>   \mu_k =  0.724

3. When a person is outside of the system and they add energy to the
NISA [10]

Answer:

We show added energy to a system as +Q or -W

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that, in an isolated system, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed;

Energy is added to the internal energy of a system as either work energy or heat energy as follows;

ΔU = Q - W

Therefore, when energy is added as heat energy to a system, we show the energy as positive Q (+Q), when energy is added to the system in the form of work, we show the energy as minus W (-W).
