A tall flagpole is a harmonic oscillator, flexing back and forth with a steady period. The pole rises from a base that is fixed

in the ground, but you can push it forward from chest height. To increase the amplitude of the pole's motion, you should push it forward when it isA. moving toward you.
B. as close to you as possible.
C. moving away from you.
D. as far from you as possible.

Answer:

C. moving away from you.

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion when we multiply the mass of an object and the acceleration that the body is experiencing we get the force applied.

If the flagpole is coming towards me and I push it the velocity of the oscillation will slow as the acceleration would be in the negative direction of the motion

If the flagpole is moving away from me then the acceleration that I provide will be added to the acceleration of the oscillating flagpole which will increase the amplitude.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

0.247 J = 247 mJ

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of energy, the workdone by the applied force, W = kinetic energy change + electric potential energy change.

So, W = ΔK + ΔU =1/2m(v₂² - v₁²) + q(V₂ - V₁) where m = mass of particle = 5.4 × 10⁻² kg, q = charge of particle = 5.10 × 10⁻⁵ C, v₁ = initial speed of particle = 2.00 m/s, v₂ = final speed of particle = 3.00 m/s, V₁ = potential at surface A = 5650 V, V₂ = potential at surface B = 7850 V.

So, W = ΔK + ΔU =1/2m(v₂² - v₁²) + q(V₂ - V₁)

          = 1/2 × 5.4 × 10⁻²kg × ((3m/s)² - (2 m/s)²) + 5.10 × 10⁻⁵ C(7850 - 5650)

          = 0.135 J + 0.11220 J

          = 0.2472 J

          ≅ 0.247 J = 247 mJ

Which of the following is the best example of kinetic energy being transformed into potential energy
poizon [28]

A pendulum is probably the most common showing of this example. As the pendulum swings down, it converts its potential energy (height) into kinetic energy (velocity). At the lowest point the kinetic energy is the highest and the potential is the lowest. At the highest point in its swing the velocity is zero so the kinetic energy is zero and the potential energy is at a maximum (greatest height).
