a) y(t)=0.0016 sin(94.9t) [m]

b) 0.033 s

c) -0.152 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The force acting on the mass-spring system is (restoring force)

F=-ky

where

k = 9 is the spring constant

y is the displacement

Also, from Newton's second law of motion, we know that

F=my''

where

m = 1 g = 0.001 kg is the mass

y'' is the acceleration

Combining the two equations,

my''=-ky

This is a second order differential equation; the solution for y(t) is

y(t)=A sin(\omega t-\phi)

where

A is the amplitude of motion

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{9}{0.001}}=94.9 rad/s is the angular frequency

The spring starts its motion from its equilibrium position, this means that y=0 when t=0; therefore, the phase shift must be

\phi=0

So the displacement is

y(t)=A sin(\omega t)

The velocity of the spring is equal to the derivative of the displacement:

v(t)=y'(t)=\omega A cos(\omega t)

We know that at t = 0, the initial velocity is 6 in/s; since 1 in = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m,

v_0=6(0.0254)=0.152 m/s

And since at t = 0, cos(\omega t)=1

Then we have:

v_0=\omega A

From which we find the amplitude:

A=\frac{v_0}{\omega}=\frac{0.152}{94.9}=0.0016 m

So the solution for the displacement is

y(t)=0.0016 sin(94.9t) [m]

b)

Here we want to find the time t at which the mass returns to equilibrium, so the time t at which

y=0

This means that

sin(\omega t)=0

We know already that the first time at which this occurs is

t = 0

Which is the beginning of the motion.

The next occurence of y = 0 is instead when

\omega t = \pi

which means:

t=\frac{\pi}{\omega}=\frac{\pi}{94.9}=0.033 s

c)

As said in part a), the velocity of the mass-spring system at time t is given by the derivative of the displacement, so

v(t)=\omega A cos(\omega t)

where we have

\omega=94.9 rad/s is the angular frequency

A=0.0016 m is the amplitude of motion

t is the time

Here we want to find the velocity of the mass when the time is that calculated in part b):

t = 0.033 s

Substituting into the equation, we find:

v(0.033)=(94.9)(0.0016)cos(94.9\cdot 0.033)=-0.152 m/s

Which function corresponds to the table of inputs and outputs?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

f(x) = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

That's easy to find out.  You have your input number, which is your x value, and you have your output number which is your y value (or f(x)).

All you have to do is see if each of the proposed answer works for ALL entries in the data set.

f(x) = 3x + 2  

for x = 3 ===>  11 = 3 (3) + 2 = 11 YES

for x = 5 ===>  17 = 3 (5) + 2 = 17 YES

for x = 7 ===>  23 = 3 (7) + 2 = 23 YES

for x = 9 ===>  29 = 3 (9) + 2 = 29 YES

f(x) = 2x + 5  

for x = 3 ===>  11 = 2 (3) + 5 = 11 YES

for x = 5 ===>  17 = 2 (5) + 5 = 15 NO - we stop here for this function

f(x) = x + 7  

 for x = 3 ===>  11 = (3) + 7 = 10 NO - we stop here for this function

f(x) = 3x + 1

 for x = 3 ===>  11 = 3 (3) + 1 = 10 NO - we stop here for this function

The half-life of a certain radioactive material is 83 hours. An initial amount of the material has a mass of 67 kg. Write an exp
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

  • Initial amount of the material is 67 kg
  • Hal-life is 83 hours

<u>The required equation is:</u>

  • m(x) = 67 * (1/2)^{x/83}, where m- remaining amount of the radioactive material, x - number of hours

<u>After 5 hours the material remains:</u>

  • m(5) = 67 * (1/2)^{5/83} = 64.260 (rounded)
