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

Physics
1 answer:
Jlenok [28]1 year 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?

A 49.5 gram super ball traveling at 25.5 m/s bounces off a brick wall and rebounds at 19.5 m/s. a high-speed camera records this
OLga [1]
T = 4.25 ms = 4 x 10⁻³ s, the time for rebound
v₁ = 25.5 m/s, the impacting velocty
v₂ = -19.5 m/s, the rebounding velocity (n the opposite directon)

The change in velocity is
v₂ - v₁ = - (25.5+19.5) = -45 m/s

The acceleration is
a = (-45 m/s)/(4 s) = -11.25 m/s²
The negative sign indicates that the final velocity is opposiye to the impact velocty.

Answer: The magnitude of the acceleration is 11.25 m/s²

A 21.7kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 2.2m/s. How much thermal energy due to frictio
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.

Potential energy loss:

M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J

Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:

= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J

yuradex [85]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Formula E=F/C also E=V/d

In this case use the second formula; E=V/d

Data given; E=4N/C d=8m

So v=E X d

     V=4x8=32V

k.e=eV= 2X32=64eV
