A mass attached to a spring is displaced from its equilibrium position by 5cm and released. The system then oscillates in simple

harmonic motion with a period of 1s. If that same mass–spring system is displaced from equilibrium by 10cm instead, what will its period be in this case?(A) 0.5s(B) 2s(C) 1s(D) 1.4s

Answer:

T= 1 s

Explanation:

Given that

When x= cm ,T= 1

we know that time period of spring mas system given as

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

T= Time period

m= mass

k=spring constant

So from above equation we can say that time period of system does not depends on the value of x.

So when x= 10 cm ,still time period will be 1 s.

T= 1 s

By increasing the circuits resistance R, in a capacitive circuit the phase difference between the current in the circuit and pot

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

B) Gets smaller

Explanation:

The difference of phase between current and voltage in a AC circuit is the phase angle and it depends on the value of Z ( circuit impedance)

Z = R + X where R is the resistive component and X the reactance component, which is due either to a presence of an inductor or a capacitor. In any case the total impedance depends on R the resistive, and the phase angle φ is:

tan⁻¹ φ = X/R

Have a look to a pure capactive circuit (we are talking about AC current) in this case current leads voltage by 90⁰. If we add a resistor in the circuit the current still will lead a voltage but in this condition the phase angle will be smaller,

If R increase, X/R decrease and tan⁻¹ φ also decrease

A 120-V rms voltage at 1000 Hz is applied to an inductor, a 2.00-μF capacitor and a 100-Ω resistor, all in series. If the rms va

natima [27]

Answer:

The inductance of the inductor is 35.8 mH

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 120-V

Frequency = 1000 Hz

Capacitor $C= 2.00\mu F$

Current = 0.680 A

We need to calculate the inductance of the inductor

Using formula of current

$I = \dfrac{V}{Z}$

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+(L\omega-\dfrac{1}{C\omega})^2}$

Put the value of Z into the formula

$I=\dfrac{V}{\sqrt{R^2+(L\omega-\dfrac{1}{C\omega})^2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$0.680=\dfrac{120}{\sqrt{(100)^2+(L\times2\pi\times1000-\dfrac{1}{2\times10^{-6}\times2\pi\times1000})^2}}$

$L=35.8\ mH$

Hence, The inductance of the inductor is 35.8 mH

The electric field between the plates of the cathode ray tube of an older television set can be as high as 2.5x104 N/C. Determin

pentagon [3]

Answer:

(a) $F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N$

(b) $a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2$

Explanation:

Parameter given:

Electric field, E = $2.5 * 10^4 N/C$

(a) Electric force is given (in terms of electric field) as a product of electric charge and electric field.

Mathematically:

$F = qE$

Electric charge, q, of an electron = $- 1.602 * 10^{-19} C$

$F = -1.602 * 10^{-19} * 2.5 * 10^4\\\\\\F = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N$

(b) This electrostatic force causes the electron to accelerate with an equivalent force:

F = -ma

where m = mass of an electron

a = acceleration of electron

(Note: the force is negative cos the direction of the force is opposite the direction of the electron)

Therefore:

$-ma = -4.01 * 10^{-15} N\\\\\\a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-m}$

Mass, m, of an electron = $9.11 * 10^{-31} kg$

=> $a = \frac{-4.01 * 10^{-15}}{-9.11 * 10^{-31}}\\\\\\a = 4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2$

The acceleration of the electron is $4.40 * 10^{15} m/s^2$

How is the acceleration of a car traveling on an elevated air track related to the angle of elevation and the height of elevatio

vitfil [10]

on a given inclined we know that net force is given by

$F_{net} = - mgsin\theta$

here we know that

$F_{net} = ma$

so here we have

$ma = - mg sin\theta$

$a = - gsin\theta$

so here acceleration depends directly on angle of inclination

now we also know that if height of the inclined is H and its length is L

then we can write

$sin\theta = \frac{H}{L}$

so the acceleration is given as

$a = - g*\frac{H}{L}$

so acceleration also depends directly on height of the inclined plane
