 If a boat motor catches fire, you should immediately shut off the fuel supply, and try to put out the fire with an extinguisher. It is very important to have fully charged fire extinguishers on hand. As soon as you notice the fire activate the extinguisher and do not panic. In order to prevent fire remember to c<span>lean the bilges often and maintain proper gear stowage, make sure short-tie cables are properly connected...</span>

A frictionless cart of mass M is attached to a spring with spring constant k. When the cart is displaced 6 cm from its rest posi
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Time period of horizontal Oscillation  = T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Explanation:

Solution:

As we know that:

F = Kx

Here,

K = Spring constant

x = displacement.

First, they are displacing it with 6 cm from its rest position for which Time period of the oscillation is T = 2 seconds.

But next, they want to know the effect on the time period of the oscillation if the displacement x is doubled from 6cm to 12 cm.

First of all, let us see the equation of the time period of the oscillation.

We need to check, if time period does depend on the displacement or not.

As we know,

Time period of horizontal Oscillation  = T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

As you can see, from the equation, Period of oscillation depends upon the mass and the spring constant. Not on the displacement.

Since, K is the constant for a particular spring, we need to change the mass of the cart to change the time period.

Hence the Time period will remain same.

Joey drives along the 110 South freeway and notices a mile marker that reads 260 miles. He drives until he reaches the 150 mile
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

85 miles .

Explanation:

Displacement along the 110 South freeway = 260 - 150  =  110 miles

Displacement along the 110 North freeway = 150 - 175   = - 25 miles

Net displacement = 110 - 25 = 85 miles

So Joey's displacement from the 260 mile marker is 85 miles .

Every football field has two 300kg field goal posts separated by 110m of football field (that includes the endzones). What is th
Mama L [17]

Answer:

4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass 1 (M1) = 300 Kg

Mass 2 (M2) = 300 Kg

Separating distance (r) = 110 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Gravitational force (F) =?

The gravitational force between the two goal posts can be obtained as follow:

F = GM1M2 / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 300 × 300 / 110²

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ / 12100

F = 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Therefore the gravitational force between the two goal posts is 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Ask Your Teacher Suppose the roller coaster below(h1 = 36 m, h2 = 13 m, h3 = 30) passes point A with a speed of 1.00 m/s. If the
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The roller coaster will reach point B with a speed of 14.72 m/s

Explanation:

Considering both kinetic energy KE = 1/2×m×v² and potential energy PE = m×g×h

Where m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = starting height of the roller coaster

we have the given variables

h₁ = 36 m,

h₂ = 13 m,

h₃ = 30 m

v₁ = 1.00 m/s

Total energy at point 1 = 0.5·m·v₁² + m·g·h₁

= 0.5 m×1² + m×9.81×36

=353.66·m

Total energy at point 2 = 0.5·m·v₂² + m·g·h₂

= 0.5×m×v₂² + 9.81 × 13 × m = 0.5·m·v₂² + 127.53·m

The total energy at 1 and 2 are not equal due to the frictional force which must be considered

Total energy at point 2 = Total energy at point 1 + work done against friction

Friction work = F×d×cosθ = (\frac{1}{5} × mg)×60×cos 180 = -117.72m

0.5·m·v₂² + 127.53·m = 353.66·m -117.72m

0.5·m·v₂² = 108.41×m

v₂² = 216.82

v₂  =  14.72 m/s

The roller coaster will reach point B with a speed of 14.72 m/s
