The function x = (1.2 m) cos[(3πrad/s)t + π/5 rad] gives the simple harmonic motion of a body. At t = 9.7 s, what are the (a) di
nlexa [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Let:

x(t)=Acos(\omega t+ \phi)

The equation representing a simple harmonic motion, where:

x=Displacement\hspace{3}from\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}equilibrium\hspace{3}point\\A=Amplitude \hspace{3}of\hspace{3} motion\\\omega= Angular \hspace{3}frequency\\\phi=Initial\hspace{3} phase\\t=time

As you may know the derivative of the position is the velocity and the derivative of the velocity is the acceleration. So we can get the velocity and the acceleration by deriving the position:

v(t)=\frac{dx(t)}{dt} =- \omega A sin(\omega t + \phi)\\\\a(t)=\frac{dv(t)}{dt} =- \omega^2 A cos(\omega t + \phi)

Also, you may know these fundamental formulas:

f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi} \\\\T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}

Now, using the previous information and the data provided by the problem, let's solve the questions:

(a)

x(9.7)=1.2 cos((3 \pi *(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} ) \approx -0.70534m

(b)

v(9.7)=-(3\pi) (1.2) sin((3\pi *(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} ) \approx 9.1498 m/s

(c)

a(9.7)=-(3 \pi)^2(1.2)cos((3\pi*(9.7))+\frac{\pi}{5} )\approx -62.653m/s^2

(d)

We can extract the phase of the motion, the angular frequency and the amplitude from the equation provided by the problem:

\phi = \frac{\pi}{5}

(e)

f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi} =\frac{3\pi}{2 \pi} =\frac{3}{2} =1.5 Hz

(f)

T=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega} =\frac{2 \pi}{3 \pi} =\frac{2}{3} \approx 0.667s

A particle on a spring moves in simple harmonic motion along the x axis between turning points at x1 = 95 cm and x2 = 135 cm. (i
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

(i) x = 115\,cm, (ii) x = 95\,cm, (iii) x = 95\,cm

Explanation:

(i) x_{1} and x_{2} represent the points where particle has a velocity of zero and spring reach maximum deformation, Given the absence of non-conservative force and by the Principle of Energy Conservation, the position where particle is at maximum speed is average of both extreme positions:

x = 115\,cm

(ii) Maximum accelerations is reached at x_{1} and x_{2}.

x = 95\,cm

(iii) Greatest net forces exerted on the particle are reached at  x_{1} and x_{2}.

x = 95\,cm
