What is the total distance, side to side, that the top of the building moves during such an oscillation

Physics
1 answer:
Jlenok [28]10 months ago
5 0

The total side to side distance at the top of the building, covered during such an oscillation is 8.4 cm.

Solution:

The height of building is, h = 152 m.

The frequency on windy days is, f = 0.17 Hz.

The acceleration on the top of building is, a = 2/100g (Here g is gravitational acceleration).

a = A \times \omega ^{2}

a = A \times (2\pi f) ^{2}

\frac{2}{100} \times g = A \times (2\pi \times 0.17) ^ 2

A = 0.042m

hence the total distance is twice the distance

that is 0.084m

<h3>What is oscillation?</h3>
  • The recurrent or periodic change of a quantity around a central value (often an equilibrium point) or between two or more different states is known as oscillation.
  • Alternating current and a swinging pendulum are two common examples of oscillation. Physics can employ oscillations to approximate complicated interactions, like those between atoms.

Question:

The New England Merchants Bank Building in Boston is 152 m high. On windy days it sways with a frequency of 0.17 Hz, and the acceleration of the top of the building can reach 2.0% of the free-fall acceleration, enough to cause discomfort for occupants. What is the total distance, side to side, that the top of the building moves during such an oscillation?

Rain drops fall on a tile surface at a density of 4638 drops/ft2. There are 17 tiles/ft2. How many drops fall on each tile? Answ
Vinil7 [7]

Answer: 272.82 drop/tile

Explanation:

Given that the Rain drops fall on a tile surface at a density of 4638 drops/ft2. There are 17 tiles/ft2. How many drops fall on each tile?

Tiles/ft^2 × drop/tiles = drop/ft^2

Tiles will cancel out. Leaving the answer to be drop/ ft^2

Substitutes all the magnitude of the above units.

17 × drop/tiles = 4638

Make drop/tiles the subject of formula

Drop/tiles = 4638/17

Drop/tiles = 272.82

Therefore, 272.82 drop/tile drops fall on each tile?

A 5000 kg open train car is rolling on frictionless rails at 22 m/s when it starts pouring rain. A few minutes later, the car’s
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

500 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

The mass of a open train car, M = 5000 kg

Speed of open train car, V = 22 m/s

A few minutes later, the car’s speed is 20 m/s

We need to find the mass of water collected in the car. It is based on the conservation of momentum as follows :

initial momentum = final momentum

Let m is final mass

MV=mv

m=\dfrac{MV}{v}\\\\m=\dfrac{5000\times 22}{20}\\\\=5500\ kg

Water collected = After mass of train - before mass of train

= 5500 - 5000

= 500 kg

So, 500 kg of water has collected in the car.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

(a)There are no magnetic monopoles. true

(c) There must be a vector potential. true

(d) Charges create electric fields.2. true

Explanation:

a) there are no magnetic monopoles because magnetic field is created by charges (electrons) and these electrons have dipole field so it is not possible to have magnetic dipoles, more ever Gauss's law always explained that there are not magnetic dipoles. furthermore magnetic monopoles aree caused by magnetic charges and we have electric charges.

c)vector potential is a vector field which serves as a potential for magnetic field so, the magnetic field B by Faraday and Gauss's law is also known as vector potential.

d) electric field is solely generated by charges be it static charges or moving charges if there are no charges it is not possible to have an electric field.
