Answer:

A differential equation is 4x''+3x'+98x=0.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 4 kg

Stretch string = 40 cm

Additional distance = 12 cm

Damping constant = 3 N-s/m

Let xx to denote the displacement, in meters, of the mass from its equilibrium position, and give your answer in terms of x,x′,x′′ .

We need to calculate the spring constant k

The net force in y direction at equilibrium position

F_{y}=0

mg-kx=0

Put the value into the formula

4\times9.8-k\times40\times10^{-2}=0

k=\dfrac{4\times9.8}{40\times10^{-2}}

k=98\ N/m

The initial displacement from equilibrium

x(0)=12\ cm

The initial velocity is

v(0)=0

We need to set up a differential equation

The net force in y direction is zero at equilibrium position .

\Sum F_{y}=0

mx''+cx'+kx=0

Put the value into the equation

4x''+3x'+98x=0

Hence, A differential equation is 4x''+3x'+98x=0.

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

F is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant  

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m=7.349(10)^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.9(10)^{8} m is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to F:

F=m.a_{C} (2)

Where a_{C} is the centripetal acceleration given by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (3)  

Being V the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (4)

Simplifying:

a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (5)

Making (5)=(3):

\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (6)  

Finding V:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}} (7)

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}} (8)

Finally:

V=1010.92 m/s

A 5.0 kg object moving at 5.0 m/s. KE = mv2 times 1/2
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: KE = 62.5J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of object = 5kg

kinetic energy KE = ?

velocity of object = 5m/s

Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2

KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25

KE = 62.5J

Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.

The distance between slits in a double-slit experiment is decreased by a factor of 2. If the distance between fringes is small c
Elodia [21]

Answer:

the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Explanation:

To find how the distance between fringes is modified you can use the following formula for the calculation of the distance between fringes:

\Delta y=\frac{\lambda D}{d}

D: distance to the screen

d: distance between slits

λ: wavelength of the light

if d is decreased by a factor of 2, that is d'=1/2d, you have:

\Delta y'=\frac{\lambda D}{d'}=\frac{\lambda D}{(1/2)d}=2\Delta y

hence, the distance between adjacent fringes is increased by a factor o 2

Elanso [62]

Answer:

A. The bomb will take <em>17.5 seconds </em>to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land <em>12040 meters </em>on the ground ahead from where they released it

Explanation:

Maverick and Goose are flying at an initial height of y_0=1500m, and their speed is v=688 m/s

When they release the bomb, it will initially have the same height and speed as the plane. Then it will describe a free fall horizontal movement

The equation for the height y with respect to ground in a horizontal movement (no friction) is

y=y_0 - \frac{gt^2}{2}    [1]

With g equal to the acceleration of gravity of our planet and t the time measured with respect to the moment the bomb was released

The height will be zero when the bomb lands on ground, so if we set y=0 we can find the flight time

The range (horizontal displacement) of the bomb x is

x = v.t     [2]

Since the bomb won't have any friction, its horizontal component of the speed won't change. We need to find t from the equation [1] and replace it in equation [2]:

Setting y=0 and isolating t we get

t=\sqrt{\frac{2y_0}{g}}

Since we have y_0=1500m

t=\sqrt{\frac{2(1500)}{9.8}}

t=17.5 sec

Replacing in [2]

x = 688\ m/sec \ (17.5sec)

x = 12040\ m

A. The bomb will take 17.5 seconds to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land 12040 meters on the ground ahead from where they released it
