Answer: 0.0146m

Explanation: The formula that defines the velocity of a simple harmonic motion is given as

v = ω√A² - x²

Where v = linear velocity, A = amplitude = 1.69cm = 0.0169m, x = displacement.

The maximum speed of a simple harmonic motion is derived when x = A, hence v = ωA

One half of maximum speed = speed of motion

3ωA/2 = ω√A² - x²

ω cancels out on both sides of the equation, hence we have that

A/2 = √A² - x²

(0.0169)/2 = √(0.0169² - x²)

0.00845 = √(0.0169² - x²)

By squaring both sides, we have that

0.00845² = 0.0169² - x²

x² = 0.0169² - 0.00845²

x² = 0.0002142

x = √0.0002142

x = 0.0146m

Q6) A speed skater moving to the left across frictionless ice at 8.0 m/s hits a 5.0-m-wide patch of rough ice. She slows steadil
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

-2.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2as................... Equation 1

Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance,

Given: v = 6.0 m/s, u = 8.0 m/s, s = 5.0 m.

Substituting into equation 1

6² = 8²+2(a)5

36 = 64 + 10a

10a = 36-64

10a = -28

10a/10 = -28/10

a = -2.8 m/s²

Note: a is negative because because the skater decelerate on the rough ice

Hence the magnitude of her acceleration is  = -2.8 m/s²

A monkey (mass m) is swinging on a vine of length L while carrying a bunch of bananas (a large bunch, mass m/2). His swinging mo
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

The period of oscillation will remain unchanged because the period of oscillation of a pendulum does not depend upon the mass of the bob  . Here monkey along with bunch of banana represents bob .

When the monkey and banana were at height h /2 , they have potential energy as well as kinetic energy . banana is separated from the system . It carried its total energy along with it . But the energy of monkey remained intact with it . So it will keep on moving as usual . So it will attain the same maximum height as before .

Hence the amplitude of oscillation too will remain unchanged .
