Answer:

The maximum speed of the mass is 1.67 m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of object is 34 g or 0.034 kg

Spring constant of the spring is 78.1 N/m

Amplitude attained by the object is 3.5 cm or 0.035 m

It is required to find the maximum speed of the object in this spring mass system. The maximum speed is given by :

$v=A\omega$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

$v=A\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Plugging all the values in above formula,

$v=0.035\times \sqrt{\dfrac{78.1}{0.034}}\\\\v=1.67\ m/s$

So, the maximum speed of the mass is 1.67 m/s.

The rate at which heat enters an air conditioned building is often roughly proportional to the difference in temperature between

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Considering first question

Generally the coefficient of performance of the air condition is mathematically represented as

$COP = \frac{T_i}{T_o - T_i}$

Here $T_i$ is the inside temperature

while $T_o$ is the outside temperature

What this coefficient of performance represent is the amount of heat the air condition can remove with 1 unit of electricity

So it implies that the air condition removes $\frac{T_i}{T_o - T_i}$ heat with 1 unit of electricity

Now from the question we are told that the rate at which heat enters an air conditioned building is often roughly proportional to the difference in temperature between inside and outside. This can be mathematically represented as

$Q \ \alpha \ (T_o - T_i)$

=> $Q= k (T_o - T_i)$

Here k is the constant of proportionality

since 1 unit of electricity removes $\frac{T_i}{T_o - T_i}$ amount of heat

E unit of electricity will remove $Q= k (T_o - T_i)$

$E = \frac{k(T_o - T_i)}{\frac{T_i}{ T_h - T_i} }$

=> $E = \frac{k}{T_i} (T_o - T_i)^2$

given that $\frac{k}{T_i}$ is constant

=> $E \ \alpha \ (T_o - T_i)^2$

From this above equation we see that the electricity required(cost of powering and operating the air conditioner) is approximately proportional to the square of the temperature difference.

Considering the second question

Assuming that $T_i = 30 ^oC$

and $T_o = 40 ^oC$

Hence

$E = K (T_o - T_i)^2$

Here K stand for a constant

$E = K (40 - 30)^2$

=> $E = 100K$

Now if the $T_i = 20 ^oC$

Then

$E = K (40 - 20)^2$

=> $E = 400 \ K$

So from this see that the electricity require (cost of powering and operating the air conditioner)when the inside temperature is low is much higher than the electricity required when the inside temperature is higher

Considering the third question

Now in the case where the heat that enters the building is at a rate proportional to the square-root of the temperature difference between inside and outside

We have that

$Q = k (T_o - T_i )^{\frac{1}{2} }$

$E = \frac{k (T_o - T_i )^{\frac{1}{2} }}{\frac{T_i}{T_o - T_i} }$

=> $E = \frac{k}{T_i} * (T_o - T_i) ^{\frac{3}{2} }$

Assuming $\frac{k}{T_i}$ is a constant

Then

$E \ \alpha \ (T_o - T_i)^{\frac{3}{2} }$

From this above equation we see that the electricity required(cost of powering and operating the air conditioner) is approximately proportional to the square root of the cube of the temperature difference.

PLZZZ HELPPP ASAP<br> I really need help as soon as possible

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Friction

Explanation:

As the toy cars rolls away, more friction is created. The more friction there is, the more friction on surface rubs against another which creates friction which in-term slows it down. Hope this helps.

A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward

kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C

A mass m attached to a horizontal massless spring with spring constant k, is set into simple harmonic motion. its maximum displa

Lesechka [4]

At the point of maximum displacement (a), the elastic potential energy of the spring is maximum:
$U_i= \frac{1}{2} ka^2$
while the kinetic energy is zero, because at the maximum displacement the mass is stationary, so its velocity is zero:
$K_i =0$
And the total energy of the system is
$E_i = U_i+K= \frac{1}{2}ka^2$

Viceversa, when the mass reaches the equilibrium position, the elastic potential energy is zero because the displacement x is zero:
$U_f = 0$
while the mass is moving at speed v, and therefore the kinetic energy is
$K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
And the total energy is
$E_f = U_f + K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

For the law of conservation of energy, the total energy must be conserved, therefore $E_i = E_f$ . So we can write
$\frac{1}{2} ka^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
that we can solve to find an expression for v:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{ka^2}{m} }$
