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}

Find the value of F1 + F2 + F3.<br>​
Dovator [93]

Answer:

F = 0.78[N]

Explanation:

The given values correspond to forces, we must remember or take into account that the forces are vector quantities, that is, they have magnitude and direction. Since we have two X-Y coordinate axes (two-dimensional), we are going to decompose each of the forces into the X & y components.

<u>For F₁</u>

<u />F_{y}=2[N]<u />

<u>For F₂</u>

F_{x}=2*cos(60)\\F_{x}=1[N]\\F_{y}=-2*sin(60)\\F_{y}=-1.73[N]

<u>For F₃</u>

<u />F_{x}=-1*sin(60)\\F_{x}=-0.866[N]\\F_{y}=1*cos(60)\\F_{y}=0.5 [N]<u />

Now we can sum each one of the forces in the given axes:

F_{x}=1-0.866=0.134[N]\\F_{y}=2-1.73+0.5\\F_{y}=0.77[N]

Now using the Pythagorean theorem we can find the total force.

F=\sqrt{(0.134)^{2} +(0.77)^{2}}\\F= 0.78[N]

You have two identical beakers A and B. Each beaker is filled with water to the same height. Beaker B has a rock floating at the
gregori [183]

Answer:

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water the weight of the two beakers is the same

Explanation:

The beaker weight is

 beaker A

          W_total = W_ empty + W_water

Beaker B

            W_total = W_ empty + W_water + W_roca

a) if we assume that the water does not spill, Beaker B weighs more than beaker S, or which in this case Beaker A weighs more

b) If it is spilled in water, the weight of the two beakers is the same because the amount of liquid spilled and equal to the weight of the stone, therefore the two beakers weigh the same
