An infant's toy has a 120 g wooden animal hanging from a spring. If pulled down gently, the animal oscillates up and down with a

period of 0.58 s . His older sister pulls the spring a bit more than intended. She pulls the animal 25 cm below its equilibrium position, then lets go. The animal flies upward and detaches from the spring right at the animal's equilibrium position. If the animal does not hit anything on the way up, how far above its equilibrium position will it go?

Answer:

0.37 m

Explanation:

The angular frequency, ω, of a loaded spring is related to the period, T,  by

\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{T}

The maximum velocity of the oscillation occurs at the equilibrium point and is given by

v = \omega A

A is the amplitude or maximum displacement from the equilibrium.

v = \dfrac{2\pi A}{T}

From the the question, T = 0.58 and A = 25 cm = 0.25 m. Taking π as 3.142,

v = \dfrac{2\times3.142\times0.25\text{ m}}{0.58\text{ s}} = 2.71 \text{ m/s}

To determine the height we reached, we consider the beginning of the vertical motion as the equilibrium point with velocity, v. Since it is against gravity, acceleration of gravity is negative. At maximum height, the final velocity is 0 m/s. We use the equation

v_f^2 = v_i^2+2ah

v_f is the final velocity, v_i is the initial velocity (same as v above), a is acceleration of gravity and h is the height.

h = \dfrac{v_f^2 - v_i^2}{2a}

h = \dfrac{0^2 - 2.71^2}{2\times-9.81} = 0.37 \text{ m}

Which of the following statements is/are true?Check all that apply.a. A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a). A conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

TRUE

Because there is no energy loss in presence of conservative forces so energy conversion in two ways are possible.

b). A potential energy function can be specified for a conservative force.

TRUE

negative gradient of potential energy is equal to conservative force

F = -\frac{dU}{dr}

c). A non-conservative force permits a two-way conversion between kinetic and potential energies.

FALSE

here energy is lost against non-conservative forces

d). The work done by a conservative force depends on the path taken.

FALSE

work done by conservative force is independent of path

e). The work done by a non-conservative force depends on the path taken.

TRUE

work done by non conservative forces depends on path.

f). A potential energy function can be specified for a non-conservative force.

FALSE

It is not defined for non conservative forces

If a dog is mass iS 14.3 kg what is it’s weight on earth
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Weight of the dog on surface of earth is 140.14 Newton.

Given:

mass of the dog = 14.3 kg

To find:

Weight of the dog = ?

Formula used:

Weight of the dog is given by,

W = mg

Where, W = weight of the dog

m = mass of the dog

g = acceleration due to gravity

Solution:

Weight of the dog is given by,

W = mg

Where, W = weight of the dog

m = mass of the dog = 14.3 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity

W = 14.3 × 9.8

W = 140.14 Newton

Weight of the dog on surface of earth is 140.14 Newton.
