- A ship's total weight is equal to the weight of the water it displaces. If you want to calculate the

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

c. the volume of the part of the ship that lies below the water's surface.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, Archimedes' Principle tells us that that buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of fluid it displaces. The volume of water that a ship displaces is the volume it occupies below the surface.

A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block (m = 0.50 kg) attached to a spring (k = 128 N/m). The block is pulled a certain

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

0.5 m

14.00595

8 m/s, 0.0625 s

5.71314 m/s

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 128 N/m

A = Amplitude

E = Energy in spring = 16 J

Energy in spring is given by

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{k}}\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 16}{128}}\\\Rightarrow A=0.5\ m$

The amplitude is 0.5 m

Time period is given by

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5}{128}}\\\Rightarrow T=0.39269\ s$

Number of oscillations is given by

$N=\dfrac{5.5}{0.39269}\\\Rightarrow N=14.00595$

The number of oscillations is 14.00595

For maximum speed

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=16\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16\times 2}{0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=8\ m/s$

The maximum speed is 8 m/s

For a distance of 0.5 m which is the amplitude

$Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}\\\Rightarrow Time=\dfrac{0.5}{8}\\\Rightarrow Time=0.0625\ s$

The time taken would be 0.0625 s

The maximum kinetic energy is equal to the mechanical energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=16$

At x = 0.35 m

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}128\times 0.35^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=5.71314\ m/s$
