Answer:

The diameter of the hole increases

Explanation:

Metals expand and contract with temperature. Whenever metal is heated, it usually expands in relation to its thermal expansivity. This expansion leads to a slight increase in surface area.

Once the surface area of the metal changes, this means that the dimensions of the whole metal surface changed. As a result, the diameter of the hole drilled in the metal plate will change also. In our case, the diameter of the hole will increase.

Answer:

a) Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) Period

Time Period T = Time taken for one oscillation

T = 33s / 10 = 3.3 seconds

Therefore, Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) Frequency

we know that frequency is the inverse of time period

so;

Frequency f = 1/T = 1 / 3.3 s

Frequency f = 0.3030 Hz

Therefore, The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude

amplitude A = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( 60 cm - 10 cm )

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 50 cm

A = 25 cm

A = 0.25 m

Therefore, amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed of the glider

maximum speed $V_{max}$ = ωA

and ω = 2π/T

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = $\frac{2\pi }{T}$ A

so we substitute

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = $\frac{2\pi }{3.3}$ × 0.25 m

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = 0.476 m/s

Therefore, maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

Can someone please help? Thank u!

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

B. 7.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

To find acceleration you need to subtract the final velocity by the starting velocity then divide that by the time

a= v-v/t

a= 60-0/8

a= 60/8

a=7.5 m/s^2

marta [7]

Answer: hello question b is incomplete attached below is the missing question

a) attached below

b) V = 0.336 ft/s

Explanation:

Elongation ( Xo) = 16/ 7 feet

mass attached to 4-foot spring = 16 pounds

medium has 9/2 times instanteous velocity

<u>a) Find the equation of motion if the mass is initially released from the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 2 ft/s</u>

The motion is an underdamped motion because the value of β < Wo

Wo = 3.741 s^-1
