Answer:

Explanation:

Given a mass spring system

At t = 0.1s, the positions is at x=8cm

x(0.1) = 8cm = 0.08m

Spring constant k=16N/m

Mass attached m = 4kg

Amplitude of oscialltion A=10cm = 0.1m

The angular frequency can be calculated using

w = √k/m

Where k is spring constant in N/m

m is mass attached object to the spring in kg

w = √16/4 = √4

w = 2rad/s.

Generally, the equation of a spring is given as

x = ACos(wt+Φ)

Where,

A is amplitude in metre

w is angular frequency in rad/sec

Φ is phase in radian

x(t) = 0.1Cos(2t + Φ)

At t=0.1 x = 0.08

0.08 = 0.1Cos(0.2+Φ)

Cos(0.2+Φ) = 0.08/0.1

Cos(0.2+Φ) = 0.8

0.2+Φ = ArcCos(0.8), note angle in radiant

0.2+Φ = 0.644

Φ = 0.644 — 0.2

Φ = 0.444 rad.

The phase of the SHM is 0.444rad

The answer is E = 0.44 rad

Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth's center. Satellite A is to o
Pachacha [2.7K]

(a) 0.448

The gravitational potential energy of a satellite in orbit is given by:

U=-\frac{GMm}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the satellite's mass

r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's centre, which is sum of the Earth's radius (R) and the altitude of the satellite (h):

r = R + h

We can therefore write the ratio between the potentially energy of satellite B to that of satellite A as

\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}

and so, substituting:

R=6370 km\\h_A = 5970 km\\h_B = 21200 km

We find

\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{6370 km+5970 km}{6370 km+21200 km}=0.448

(b) 0.448

The kinetic energy of a satellite in orbit around the Earth is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{r}

So, the ratio between the two kinetic energies is

\frac{K_B}{K_A}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}

Which is exactly identical to the ratio of the potential energies. Therefore, this ratio is also equal to 0.448.

(c) B

The total energy of a satellite is given by the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy:

E=U+K=-\frac{GMm}{R+h}+\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}

For satellite A, we have

E_A=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+5.97\cdot 10^6 m}=-4.65\cdot 10^8 J

For satellite B, we have

E_B=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+21.2\cdot 10^6 m}=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J

So, satellite B has the greater total energy (since the energy is negative).

(d) -2.57\cdot 10^8 J

The difference between the energy of the two satellites is:

E_B-E_A=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J-(-4.65\cdot 10^8 J)=-2.57\cdot 10^8 J

In a typical rear-end collision, the victim's ________ is/are accelerated faster and harder than the torso
Georgia [21]

The victim's head is accelerated faster and harder than the torso when the victom is involved in a typical rear-end collision.

The traffic accident where a vehicle crashes into another vehicle that is directly in front of it is called a rear-end collision.

 

One of the most common accident in the United States is the rear-end collision, and in a lot of cases, rear-end collisions are prompted by drivers who are inattentive, unfavorable conditions of the road, and poor following distance.

 

<span>An enough room in front of your car so you can stop when the car in front of you stops suddenly is one basic driving rule. The person isn’t driving safely if he / she is behind you and couldn’t stop.</span>
