Answer:

(a) Amplitude of the motion is 0.184 m.

(b) 0.285 of the original kinetic energy appears as the mechanical energy in the harmonic oscillation.

Explanation:

(a) First we will use the conservation of linear momentum to find the velocity of the combined objects.

P_1 = P_2\\mv_1 = (M + m) v_2\\0.05*150 = (4 + 0.05)v_2\\v_2 = 1.85~m/s

Before the collision, the spring is in equilibrium, so it is stretched by the amount of x.

kx = Mg\\x = \frac{Mg}{k} = \frac{4*9.8}{500} = 0.0784~m

Just after the collision, the motion starts from this position.

The simple harmonic motion equation is

x(t) = A\cos(\omega t + \phi)\\v(t) = \frac{dx(t)}{dt} = -\omega A\sin(\omega t + \phi)

ω is the angular frequency, and given as

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{500}{4.05}} = 11.11

Φ is the phase angle and can be found by the initial conditions.

At t = 0 (Just after the collision);

x(t=0) = 0.0784 = A\cos(\omega * (0) + \phi) = A\cos(\phi)\\v(t=0) = 1.85 = -(11.11)A\sin(\phi)\\\\\cos(\phi) = 0.0784/A\\A = -0.1665/\sin(\phi)\\\\\cos(\phi) = \frac{0.0784}{-\frac{0.1665}{\sin(\phi)}} = 0.4709\sin(\phi)\\\cot(\phi) = 0.4709\\\phi = 64.7^\circ\\A = \frac{0.1665}{\sin(\phi)} = \frac{0.1665}{0.9044} =  0.184~m

(b) The original kinetic energy is

K_0 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 562.5~J

The mechanical energy of the simple harmonic motion is

K + U = \frac{1}{2}(M+m)v_2^2 + \frac{1}{2}k_x^2 = \frac{1}{2}(4.05)(1.85)^2 + \frac{1}{2}500(0.0784)^2\\K+ U = 160.59~J

So 0.285 of the original kinetic energy appears as the mechanical energy in the harmonic oscillation. The rest of the original energy is converted to heat during the collision.

A scientist wants to model an internal organ with connective tissue as a mass on a spring. The mass of the organ is 2.0 kg, and
vichka [17]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 5483.11 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the organ, m = 2 kg

The natural period of oscillation is, T = 0.12 s

Let k is the spring constant for the spring in the scientist's model. The period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2 m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2 \times 2\ kg}{(0.12\ s)^2}

k = 5483.11 N/m

So, the  spring constant for the spring in the scientist's model is 5483.11 N/m.

A fuel pump sends gasoline from a car's fuel tank to the engine at a rate of 5.64 10-2 kg/s. the density of the gasoline is 735
Irina18 [472]
Given:
Gasoline pumping rate, R = 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s
Density of gasoline, D = 735 kg/m³
Radius of fuel line, r = 3.43 x 10⁻³ m

Calculate the cross sectional area of the fuel line.
A = πr² = π(3.43 x 10⁻³ m)² = 3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Let v =  speed of pumping the gasoline, m/s
Then the mass flow rate is 
M = AvD = (3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²)*(v m/s)*(735 kg/m³) = 0.027166v kg/s

The gasoline pumping rate is given as 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s, therefore
0.027166v = 0.0564
v = 2.076 m/s

Answer:  2.076 m/s
The gasoline moves through the fuel line at 2.076 m/s.
