A mass is attached to the end of a spring and set into simple harmonic motion with an amplitude A on a horizontal frictionless s

urface. Determine the following in terms of only the variable A.
(a) Magnitude of the position (in terms of A) of the oscillating mass when its speed is 50% of its maximum value.
(b) Magnitude of the position (in terms of A) of the oscillating mass when the elastic potential energy of the spring is 50% of the total energy of the oscillating system.

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming  motion of equation of SHM as

x=A\cos \omega t

where, A=amplitude

\omega =angular\ frequency

t=time

thus velocity at any Point x is given by

v=\omega \Sqrt{A^2-x^2}

when speed is 50 % of its maximum value

v=0.5 A\omega

0.5 A\omega =\omega \Sqrt{A^2-x^2}

\frac{A^2}{4}=A^2-x^2

x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}A

(b)When Potential Energy is 50 % of total energy

Total Energy =\frac{1}{2}kA^2

potential energy at any x is given by U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

U=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}kA^2

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=0.5\times \frac{1}{2}kA^2

x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}

What is it called cavity left behind in the rock after an organism's hard part has dissolved.
Lapatulllka [165]

Mold

Explanation:

A mold is a cavity that is left behind in the rock after an organism hard part has been dissolved. These are important fossils that useful in relative dating.

  • Some hard parts of organism are preserved in form of molds in soft sediments.
  • The outline and important details of the hard part is preserved when the mold dissolves away.
  • Fossil molds are representative on the internal outline of the hard parts of organisms.
  • They are usually recognized as a part of body fossil in a section.

What does special relativity reveal about the speed of light relative to its source?
Vladimir [108]

Regardless of the source's mobility, light travels at the same speed.

<h3>What makes special relativity so crucial?</h3>

In the calculating and interpretation of high-velocity phenomena, as well as on our methods of thinking, Einstein's special relativity has had a significant influence on the area of physics. Today, we have a considerably better knowledge of space and time than we did at the start of the century.

<h3>Why is special relativity thus named?</h3>

Because it exclusively uses inertial frames to apply the concept of relativity, the theory is known as "special". General relativity, which Einstein created, applies the principle broadly, that is, to any frame, and this theory takes the gravitational forces into account.
