Answer:

a) x(t) = e^(^-^2^t^)[ cos ( 4t ) + 0.75*sin ( 4t ) ]

b) x(t) = 1.25*e^(^-^a^t^)sin(4t + 0.64350)

c) t = ( 0.7957*k - 0.160875 )s  with k = 0, 1 , 2 , 3 , ....

Explanation:

Declaring variables:-

- The mass = m

- Positive damping constant = β

- Spring constant = k

- Gravitational constant, g = 32.2 ft/s^2

Given:-

- The attached initial weight, Wi = 10 lbs

- The attached second weight, Wf = 8 lbs

- Length of un-extended spring, Li = 5 ft

- The extended length, Lf = 7 ft

Find:-

(a) Find the equation of motion if the mass is initially released from a point foot below the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 1 ft/s.

(b) Express the equation of motion in the form given in (23)

(c) Find the times at which the mass passes through the equilibrium position heading dow

Solution:-

- We will first evaluate the constants m , k and β using conditions given:

                         m = Wf / g

                         m = 8 / 32 = 0.25 slugs.

- We will use the equilibrium condition in (vertical direction) on the spring when the weight of Wi = 10 lbs was attached onto the spring. The spring restoring force (Fs) acts up while weight attached combats it by pointing downward.

                         Fs - Wi = 0

- From Hooke's Law we have:

                         Fs = Wi = k*ΔL   .......  ΔL : Extension of spring

                         k = W / ΔL = W / ( Lf - Li )

                         k = 10 / ( 7 - 5 )

                         k = 5 lb/ft

- Since we have insufficient information about the damping constant of the medium we will assume it as unit. β = 1.

- Now, we will consider the dynamic motion of the spring attached with mass with weight Wf damped in a medium with constant β. We will use Newton's second equation of motion for the spring.

                        F_net = m*a

Where, F_net : Net force acting on the attached mass

            a : Acceleration of the block

- There are two forces acting on the spring ( Damping force - D and restoring force of spring (ks) ). We will consider a displacement of mass in vertical direction as (x).

                       - D - Fs = m*a

- Using hooke's law and damping force (D) is proportional to velocity of attached mass. We have:

                       - β*dx/dt - k*x = m*( d^2 x / dt^2)

 - Plug in the constants:

                          \frac{d^2x}{dt^2} + 4*\frac{dx}{dt} + 20*x = 0

- Now solve the derived ODE. The Auxiliary equation for the above ODE is:  

                         s^2 + 4s + 20 = 0              

- Solve the quadratic and evaluate roots.

                        s = -2 +/- 4i ....... (Complex Roots)

- The complementary solution (yc) for complex roots of the auxiliary is:

                        xc (t) = e^(^-^2^t^)[ A*cos ( 4t ) + B*sin ( 4t ) ]

- Use the given initial conditions and evaluate constants A and B :

                       x ( 0 ) = 1 ft , x ' (0) = 1 ft/s

                       xc (0) = e^(^0^)[ A*cos ( 0 ) + B*sin ( 0 ) ] = 1* [ A + 0 ] = 1\\\\A = 1\\\\xc'(t) = -2*e^(^-^2^t^)[ A*cos ( 4t ) + B*sin ( 4t ) ] + e^(^-^2^t^)[ -4A*sin ( 4t ) + 4B*cos ( 4t ) ]\\\\xc'(0) = -2*e^(^0^)[ cos ( 0 ) + B*sin ( 0 ) ] + e^(^0^)[ -4sin ( 0 ) + 4B*cos ( 0 ) ]\\\\ 1 = -2*[ 1 + 0 ] + 1*[ 0 + 4B]\\\\B = 3 / 4 = 0.75

- The complementary solution becomes:

                         xc (t) = e^(^-^2^t^)[ cos ( 4t ) + 0.75*sin ( 4t ) ]

- Since there is no excitation force acting on the system( Homogenous ). The particular solution does not exist and the general solution to equation of motion is:

                         x(t) = e^(^-^2^t^)[ cos ( 4t ) + 0.75*sin ( 4t ) ]

- An alternative form of the displacement (x) - Time (t) motion is:

                        x(t) = Pe^(^-^a^t^)sin(w_dt + theta)

Where,

                        P = √ ( A^2 + B^2)   .... Amplitude

                        theta (θ) = arctan ( B / A )

                        Auxiliary roots = ( a +/- bi) ..... a = -2 , b = 4  

                        wd = w*√ 1 - ρ^2 = w = b = 4 .......... (β = 1 => ρ = 0)

- Evaluate P and theta (θ):

                        P = √ ( 1^2 + 0.75^2) = 1.25 m

                        theta (θ) = arctan ( 3 / 4 ) = 0.64350 rads

- The alternative form of Equation (23) is:

                        x(t) = 1.25*e^(^-^a^t^)sin(4t + 0.64350)

c)

- To determine the range of times (t) when the mass passes the the equilibrium position can be evaluated by setting x(t) form (23) equal to 0.

                       x(t) = 1.25*e^(^-^a^t^)sin(4t + 0.64350) = 0\\\\e^(^-^a^t^) \neq 0 , sin(4t + 0.64350) = 0\\\\4t + 0.64350 = 0 , \pi , 2\pi , 3\pi = k\pi\ \ .......\ \ (k = 0, 1 , 2 , 3 , ...)\\\\t = \frac{k\pi - 0.64350}{4} = k*0.78571429 - 0.160875

- The domain for time (t) is as follows:

                       t = ( 0.7957*k - 0.160875 )s  with k = 0, 1 , 2 , 3 , ....

on an unknown temperature scale, the freezing point of water is -15°U and the boiling point is +60°U. develop a linear conversio
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Since this is a linear equation

y = m x + b     or

U = m F + b     is a linear equation

when ΔF = (212 - 32) = 180

and ΔU = (60 - (-15)) = 75

m = 75 / 180 = 2.4 if converting F to U and a = .417

U = .417 F + b

If F = 32 then U = -15 and

-15 = .417 * 32 + b

b = -15 - 13.3 = -28.3 and our equation becomes

U = .417 F - 28.3

Check: let F = 212

U = .417 * 212 - 28.3 = 60          as it should

A ball with a mass of 2000 g is floating on the surface of a pool of water. What is the minimum volume that the ball could have
Doss [256]

Answer:

2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}.

Explanation:

When the ball is placed in this pool of water, part of the ball would be beneath the surface of the pool. The volume of the water that this ball displaced is equal to the volume of the ball that is beneath the water surface.

The buoyancy force on this ball would be equal in magnitude to the weight of water that this ball has displaced.

Let m(\text{ball}) denote the mass of this ball. Let m(\text{water}) denote the mass of water that this ball has displaced.

Let g denote the gravitational field strength. The weight of this ball would be m(\text{ball}) \, g. Likewise, the weight of water displaced would be m(\text{water})\, g.

For this ball to stay afloat, the buoyancy force on this ball should be greater than or equal to the weight of this ball. In other words:

\text{buoyancy} \ge m(\text{ball})\, g.

At the same time, buoyancy is equal in magnitude the the weight of water displaced. Thus:

\text{buoyancy} = m(\text{water}) \, g.

Therefore:

m(\text{water})\, g = \text{buoyancy} \ge m(\text{ball})\, g.

m(\text{water}) \ge m(\text{ball}).

In other words, the mass of water that this ball displaced should be greater than or equal to the mass of of the ball. Let \rho(\text{water}) denote the density of water. The volume of water that this ball should displace would be:

\begin{aligned}V(\text{water}) &= \frac{m(\text{water})}{\rho(\text{water})} \\ &\ge \frac{m(\text{ball}))}{\rho(\text{water})}  \end{aligned}.

Given that m(\text{ball}) = 2000\; {\rm g} while \rho = 1.00\; {\rm g\cdot cm^{-3}}:

\begin{aligned}V(\text{water}) &\ge \frac{m(\text{ball}))}{\rho(\text{water})}  \\ &= \frac{2000\; {\rm g}}{1.00\; {\rm g\cdot cm^{-3}}} \\ &= 2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}\end{aligned}.

In other words, for this ball to stay afloat, at least 2000\; {\rm cm^{3}} of the volume of this ball should be under water. Therefore, the volume of this ball should be at least 2000\; {\rm cm^{3}}\!.
