A mass of 5 kg stretches a spring 20 cm. The mass is acted on by an external force of 10 sin t 6 N (newtons) and moves in a medi
nordsb [41]

Answer:

u" + 40u' + 49u = 2 sin(t/6)        

upp + 40up + 49u = 2 sin(t/6)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

mass = 5 kg

L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

F = 10 sin(t/6)N

Fd(t) = - 6 N

u(0) = 0.03 m/s

u(0) = 0

u'(0) = 3 cm/s

Step 2:

ω =kL

k = ω/L = m*g /L = (5*9.8)/0.2 = 245 kg/s²

Since Fd(t) = -γu'(t)  we know:

γ =- Fd(t) / u'(t) = 6N/ 0.03 m/s = 200 Ns/m

The initial value problem which describes the motion of the mass is given by

5u" + 200u' + 245u = 10 sin(t/6)   u(0) = 0  ;  u'(0) = 0.03

This is equivalent to:

u" + 40u' + 49u = 2 sin(t/6)        u(0) = 0  ;  u'(0) = 0.03

upp + 40up + 49u = 2 sin(t/6)

With u in m and t in s

A 12.0 g bullet was fired horizontally into a 1 kg block of wood. The bullet initially had a speed of 250 m/s. The block of wood
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The rise in height of combined block/bullet from its original position is 0.45m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m₁ = 12 g = 0.012 kg

mass of block of wood, m₂ = 1 kg

initial speed of bullet, u₁ = 250 m/s.

initial speed of block of wood, u₂ = 0

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum, calculate the final speed of the combined block/bullet system.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁+m₂)

where;

v is the final speed of the combined block/bullet system.

0.012 x 250 + 0 = v (0.012 + 1)

3 = v (1.012)

v = 3/1.012

v = 2.96 m/s

From the principle of conservation of energy, calculate the rise in height of the block/bullet combined from its original position.

¹/₂mv² = mgh

¹/₂v² = gh

¹/₂ (2.96)² = (9.8)h

4.3808 = 9.8h

h = 4.3808/9.8

h = 0.45 m

Therefore, the rise in height of combined block/bullet from its original position is 0.45m

A 100-kg tackler moving at a speed of 2.6 m/s meets head-on (and holds on to) an 92-kg halfback moving at a speed of 5.0 m/s. Pa
DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.
