Answer: v = 3.684 m/s

Explanation: The angular frequency (ω) of a loaded spring is given as

ω = √k/m

Where ω = angular frequency, k =spring constant = 11.9 N/m, m = mass of object = 40.1 g = 0.0401 kg.

The velocity of a simple harmonic motion is defied as

v = ω√A² - x²

Where A = Amplitude = 24.7cm = 0.247m and x = displacement.

For our question, we where asked to find velocity at half way, at half way, x = A/2

Hence at half way, x = 0.247/2 = 0.1235 m.

We need to get the value of angular frequency first.

ω = √(11.9/0.0401)

ω = √296.758

ω = 17.22 rad/s.

Then the velocity is

v = 17.22 √0.247² - 0.1235²

v = 17.22 √0.061009 - 0.01525225

v = 17.22 √0.04575675

v = 17.22 × 0.2139

v = 3.684 m/s

011 10.0 points

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

2.47 m

Explanation:

Let's calculate first the time it takes for the ball to cover the horizontal distance that separates the starting point from the crossbar of d = 52 m.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is constant:

$v_x = v cos \theta = (25)(cos 35.9^{\circ})=20.3 m/s$

and the time taken to cover the horizontal distance d is

$t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{52}{20.3}=2.56 s$

So this is the time the ball takes to reach the horizontal position of the crossbar.

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y=u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

$u_y = v sin \theta =(25)(sin 35.9^{\circ})=14.7 m/s$ is the initial vertical velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

And substituting t = 2.56 s, we find the vertical position of the ball when it is above the crossbar:

$y=(14.7)(2.56) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2.56)^2=5.52 m$

The height of the crossbar is h = 3.05 m, so the ball passes

$h' = 5.52- 3.05 = 2.47 m$

above the crossbar.

A train starts at rest in a station and accelerates at a constant 0.987 m/s2 for 182 seconds. Then the train decelerates at a co

algol [13]

Answer:

$\displaystyle X_T=66.6\ km$

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion </u>

When a body changes its speed at a constant rate, i.e. same changes take same times, then it has a constant acceleration. The acceleration can be positive or negative. In the first case, the speed increases, and in the second time, the speed lowers until it eventually stops. The equation for the speed vf at any time t is given by

$\displaystyle V_f=V_o+a\ t$

where a is the acceleration, and vo is the initial speed .

The train has two different types of motion. It first starts from rest and has a constant acceleration of $0.987 m/s^2$ for 182 seconds. Then it brakes with a constant acceleration of $-0.321 m/s^2$ until it comes to a stop. We need to find the total distance traveled.

The equation for the distance is

$\displaystyle X=V_o\ t+\frac{a\ t^2}{2}$

Our data is

$\displaystyle V_o=0,a=0.987m/s^2,\ t=182\ sec$

Let's compute the first distance X1

$\displaystyle X_1=0+\frac{0.987\times 182^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle X_1=16,346.7\ m$

Now, we find the speed at the end of the first period of time

$\displaystyle V_{f1}=0+0.987\times 182$

$\displaystyle V_{f1}=179.6\ m/s$

That is the speed the train is at the moment it starts to brake. We need to compute the time needed to stop the train, that is, to make vf=0

$\displaystyle V_o=179.6,a=-0.321\ m/s^2\ ,V_f=0$

$\displaystyle t=\frac{v_f-v_o}{a}=\frac{0-179.6}{-0.321}$

$\displaystyle t=559.5\ sec$

Computing the second distance

$\displaystyle X_2=179.6\times559.5\ \frac{-0.321\times 559.5^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle X_2=50,243.2\ m$

The total distance is

$\displaystyle X_t=x_1+x_2=16,346.7+50,243.2$

$\displaystyle X_t=66,589.9\ m$

$\displaystyle \boxed{X_T=66.6\ km}$
