From Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM),  the restoring force is given by:

   F  =  -ω²x

We can see that restoring force is proportional to the displacement, x. So if the displacement x is doubled, then the restoring force will also be doubled.

In the amusement park ride known as Magic Mountain Superman, powerful magnets accelerate a car and its riders from rest to 43.4
Anton [14]

Answer:

Average net force, F = 15157.15 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

The mass of the car and riders is, m=3\times 10^3\ kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 0

Final speed of the car, v = 43.4 m/s

Time, t = 8.59 seconds

We need to find the  average net force exerted on the car and riders by the magnets. It can be calculated using second law of motion as :

F = m a

F=m(\dfrac{v-u}{t})

F=3\times 10^3\ kg\times (\dfrac{43.4\ m/s-0}{8.59\ s})

F = 15157.15 N

So, the average net force exerted on the car and riders by the magnets. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following safety devices provides a weak link in a circuit that will melt if it received too much current, thus bre
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The correct answer is B. Fuse.

Fuses were commonly used in houses up to recent ages, when circuit breakers became the more popular options, as they don't have to be changed every time they melt, since they don't melt.

(1-dimension) A fish has a mass of 6 kg and is moving at a speed of 4m/s to the right. What is its momentum?
artcher [175]

Answer:

<h2>24 kg m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 6 × 4

We have the final answer as

<h3>24 kg m/s</h3>

Air expands isentropically from 2.2 MPa and 77°C to 0.4 MPa. Calculate the ratio of the initial to the final speed of sound.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The ratio of initial to final speed of sound is given as 1.28.

Explanation:

As per the thermodynamic relation of isentropic expansion

\frac{T_2}{T_1}=(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1}{k}}

Here

  • P_1 is the pressure at point 1 which is given as 2.2 MPa
  • T_1 is the temperature at point 1 which is given as 77 °C  or 273+77=350K
  • P_2 is the pressure at point 1 which is given as 0.4 MPa
  • T_2 is the temperature at point 2 which is to be calculated
  • k is the ratio of specific heats given as 1.4

Substituting values in the equation

                                      \frac{T_2}{350}=(\frac{0.4}{2.2})^{\frac{1.4-1}{1.4}}\\\frac{T_2}{350}=(0.18)^{0.2857}\\T_2=(0.18)^{0.2857} \times 350 \\T_2=0.61266 \times 350\\T_2=214.43 K

As speed of sound c is given as

c=\sqrt{kRT}

for initial to final values it is given as

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\frac{\sqrt{k_1R_1T_1}}{\sqrt{k_2R_2T_2}}

As values of k and R is constant so the ratio is given as

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2}}

Substituting values give

\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{\frac{350}{214.43}}\\\frac{c_i}{c_f}=\sqrt{1.63}}\\\frac{c_i}{c_f}=1.277  \approx 1.28

So the ratio of initial to final speed of sound is 1.28.
