Answer:
h = 2.49 [m]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must use the definition of potential energy, which tells us that energy is equal to the product of mass by gravity by height.
The potential energy can be calculated by means of this equation:
Ep = m*g*h
where:
Ep = potential energy = 980 [J]
m = mass = 40 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]
h = elevation [m]
Now replacing:
980 = 40*9.81*h
h = 2.49 [m]
I would say 150 joules, i don't know if its right though check
Answer:
a) x = 4.33 m
, b) w = 2 rad / s
, f = 0.318 Hz
, c) a = - 17.31 cm / s²,
d) T = 3.15 s, e) A = 5.0 cm
Explanation:
In this exercise on simple harmonic motion we are given the expression for motion
x = 5 cos (2t + π / 6)
they ask us for t = 0
a) the position of the particle
x = 5 cos (π / 6)
x = 4.33 m
remember angles are in radians
b) The general form of the equation is
x = A cos (w t + Ф)
when comparing the two equations
w = 2 rad / s
angular velocity and frequency are related
w = 2π f
f = w / 2π
f = 2 / 2pi
f = 0.318 Hz
c) the acceleration is defined by
a == d²x / dt²
a = - A w² cos (wt + Ф)
for t = 0
, we substitute
a = - 5,0 2² cos (π / 6)
a = - 17.31 cm / s²
d) El period is
T = 1/f
T= 1/0.318
T = 3.15 s
e) the amplitude
A = 5.0 cm
Absorbtion consists of when light strikes on an object and bounces off.
I have no idea what that is, but all of your answers right
