padilas [110]

Answer:

\omega=32.14\ rad/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The compression in the spring, x = 0.0647 m

Speed of the object, v = 2.08 m/s

To find,

Angular frequency of the object.

Solution,

We know that the elation between the amplitude and the angular frequency in SHM is given by :

v=\omega\times A

A is the amplitude

In case of spring the compression in the spring is equal to its amplitude

\omega=\dfrac{v}{A}

\omega=\dfrac{2.08\ m/s}{0.0647\ m}

\omega=32.14\ rad/s

So, the angular frequency of the spring is 32.14 rad/s.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1  greater distances fallen in successive seconds

Explanation:

When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement

If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body

       Y = Vo t + ½ to t2

Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2

Let's look for the position for successive times

t (s)      Y (m)

  1          -4.9

  2         -19.6

   3        -43.2

The sign indicates that the positive sense is up

It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes

A 70 ft rope hangs from a helicopter above this room. The rope has a mass per unit length of 2 lb/ft. In order to be rescued fro
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the rope, L = 70 ft

mass per unit length of the rope, μ = 2 lb/ft

your mass, W = 120 lbs

mass of the 70 ft rope  = 2 lb/ft x 70 ft

                                         = 140 lbs.

Total mass to be pulled to the helicopter, M = 120 lbs  + 140 lbs  

                                                                       = 260 lbs

The work done is calculated from work-energy theorem as follows;

W = Mgh

where;

g is acceleration due gravity = 32.17 ft/s²

h is height the total mass is raised = length of the rope = 70 ft

W = 260 Lb x 32.17 ft/s²  x 70 ft

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²

1 lb.ft²/s² = 0.0421 J

W = 585494 lb.ft²/s²  = 2.47 X 10⁴ J.

Therefore, the work done to get you safely away from the test is  2.47 X 10⁴ J.
