What is the equation describing the motion of a mass on the end of a spring which is stretched 8.8 cm from equilibrium and then

released from rest
Physics

Sedbober [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  t)

Explanation:

We first identify the elements of this simple harmonic motion:

The amplitude A is 8.8cm, because it's the maximum distance the mass can go away from the equilibrium point. In meters, it is equivalent to 0.088m.

The angular frequency ω can be calculated with the formula:

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Where k is the spring constant and m is the mass of the particle.

Now, since the spring starts stretched at its maximum, the appropriate function to use is the positive cosine in the equation of simple harmonic motion:

x=A\cos(\omega t)

Finally, the equation of the motion of the system is:

x=(0.088m)\cos(\omega t)

or

x=(0.088m)\cos(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }  t)

A flea jumps straight up to a maximum height of 0.550 m . what is its initial velocity v0 as it leaves the ground?
Alexxx [7]
Since my givens are x = .550m [Vsub0] = unknown
 [Asubx] = =9.80
 
 [Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0]

[Vsubx]^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[Asubx] * (X-[Xsub0]) 

Vsubx is the final velocity, which at the max height is 0, and Xsub0 is just 0 as that's where it starts so I just plug the rest in

0^2 = [Vsub0x]^2 + 2[-9.80]*(.550)

0 = [Vsub0x]^2 -10.78

10.78 = [Vsub0x]^2

Sqrt(10.78) = 3.28 m/s

QUESTION 23
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

E = 3600 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage, V = 115 V

Power of electric bulb, P = 60 W

We need to find the electric energy used in 1 minute. The electric energy use is given by :

E=P\times t\\\\E=60\ W\times 60\ s\\\\E = 3600\ J

Hence, the electrical energy is 3600 J.

A copper sphere was moving at 40 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Temperature increase = 2.1 [C]

Explanation:

We need to identify the initial data of the problem.

v = velocity of the copper sphere = 40 [m/s]

Cp = heat capacity = 387 [J/kg*C]

The most important data given is the fact that when the shock occurs kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, therefore it will have to be:

E_{k}=Q\\ E_{k}= kinetic energy [J]\\Q=thermal energy [J]\\Re-employment values and equalizing equations\\\\\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}=m*C_{p}*dT  \\The masses are canceled \\\\dT=\frac{v^{2}}{C_{p} *2} \\dT=2.1 [C]

The discovery of what element showed the usefulness of Mendeleev’s periodic table?
lesya [120]
A. Gallium

'cause he predicted it's physical properties before it's discovery! After that, it was proved that Mendeleev's periodic table was useful.

Hope this helps!
