A mass m at the end of a spring vibrates with a frequency

Physics
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

m = 0.59 kg.

Explanation:

First, we need to find the relation between the frequency and mass on a spring.

The Hooke's law states that

F = -kx

And Newton's Second Law also states that

F = ma = m\frac{d^2x}{dt^2}

Combining two equations yields

a = -\frac{k}{m}x

The term that determines the proportionality between acceleration and position is defined as angular frequency, ω.

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

And given that ω = 2πf

the relation between frequency and mass becomes

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}.

Let's apply this to the variables in the question.

0.88 = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\0.60 = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m+0.68}}\\\frac{0.88}{0.60} = \frac{\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}}{\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m+0.68}}}\\1.4667 = \frac{\sqrt{m+0.68}}{\sqrt{m}}\\2.15m = m + 0.68\\1.15m = 0.68\\m = 0.59~kg

Bill and Ted are standing on a bridge 40 ft above a river. Bill drops a stone, while Ted decides to throw a stone downward at 10
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

In order to know how long after Bill released his rock should Ted throw his if they want the stones to hit the water simultanously, we need to calculate the time needed to hit the water to both rocks independent each other, and just take the difference.

For the rock dropped by Bill, as the only influence on it is gravity (accelerating it downwards with an acceleration equal to g), and v₀ =0, we can use the following kinematic equation:

y = \frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2}

where y = height = 40 ft.

As all the parameters are given in SI units, it is  advisable to convert this value to m, as follows:

y = 40 ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1 ft} = 12.2 m

Now, we can solve for t, as follows:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2*y}{g}} =  \sqrt{\frac{2*12.2m}{9.8m/s2}} = 1.58 s

For the rock thrown down at 10 m/s, the kinematic equation we just have used becomes:

y = v0*t +\frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2}

This leaves us a quadratic equation on t, as follows:

t = \frac{-10m/s}{9.8m/s2} +/- \sqrt{10m/s^{2} -4*4.9m/s2*(-12.2m)} = -1.02 s +/- 1.88s

Taking the positive root, we have:

t = -1.02 s + 1.88 s = 0.86 s

So, in order to get that both rocks hit the water at the same time, Ted will need to wait the difference between both times:

Δt = 0.86 s - 1.58s = -0.72 s
