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}

If the column of mercury in a barometer stands at 72.6 cm, what is the atmospheric pressure?
lakkis [162]

Answer:pressure = density * acceleration due to gravity * height

H=72.6cm= 0.726m

P=0.726*13.6*10^3*9.8

P=96761.28Pa

Answer:

use the bowl of water because Earth's magnetic field is relatively weak. Allowing it to float freely on the water, allows the magnetized needle to freely react to Earth's magnetic field, causing it to align North to South. If you watched closely, the same end of the needle should always point to the North
