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?

If the temperature of water warming on a hot plate rises 10 degrees Celsius [°C], what is the change in temperature in units of
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Delta_temp = 18[°F]

Explanation:

°F = 9/5*(10)

°F = 18

Note: It is important to clarify that it is only a temperature increase, that it is only a temperature increase. The question is not related to converting from 10°C to fahrenheit degrees

How do solar panels work with conduction, convection and radiation?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

<em>In the case of a solar thermal panel we are trying to heat above the ambient temperature so conduction and convection will work against us by taking heat from the panel to the out- side world. ... The sun (at 6000 C surface temperature) is hotter than the solar panel so the panel will get hot due to the solar radiation.</em>

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach venus from the sun, a distance of 1.152 × 108 km?
7nadin3 [17]
Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}), and your given distance of 1.152 * 10^{8} km, we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}, is 1.152 * 10^{11} m. Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using \frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}, so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.
