Two people with a combined mass of 127 kg hop into an old car with worn-out shock absorbers. This causes the springs to compress

by 9.10 cm. When the car hits a bump in the road, it oscillates up and down with a period of 1.66 s. Find the total load supported by the springs.

Answer:

Total load = 2999.126 kg

Explanation:

Let the spring constant of the shock absorber be k.

We know that the force applied on a spring is directly proportional to elongated length and the constant of proportionality is called spring constant.

Thus

Force, F = kx

where,

x = elongation = 9.1 cm 0.091 m

mass of the people, m = 127 kg

F = weight of the people = mg = 127 x 9.8 = 1244.6 N

substituting these values in the first equation,

1244.6 = k x 0.091

thus, k = 13,676.923 N/m

Now we know that the time period, T of an oscillating spring with a load of mass m is

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

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

thus,

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

T = 1.66s

substituting these values in the equation,

m =13,676.923\frac{1.66^{2} }{4\pi ^{2}  }

m = 2999.126 kg

Un lector de DVD, la velocidad de giro es de 5400 rpm. determina el valor velocidad angular en rad/s,la frecuencia y el periodo
zubka84 [21]

Responder:

A) ω = 565.56 rad / seg

B) f = 90Hz

C) 0.011111s

Explicación:

Dado que:

Velocidad = 5400 rpm (revolución por minuto)

La velocidad angular (ω) = 2πf

Donde f = frecuencia

ω = 5400 rev / minuto

1 minuto = 60 segundos

2πrad = I revolución

Por lo tanto,

ω = 5400 * (rev / min) * (1 min / 60s) * (2πrad / 1 rev)

ω = (5400 * 2πrad) / 60 s

ω = 10800πrad / 60 s

ω = 180πrad / seg

ω = 565.56 rad / seg

SI)

Dado que :

ω = 2πf

donde f = frecuencia, ω = velocidad angular en rad / s

f = ω / 2π

f = 565.56 / 2π

f = 90.011669

f = 90 Hz

C) Periodo (T)

Recordar T = 1 / f

Por lo tanto,

T = 1/90

T = 0.0111111s

-Dominant- [34]

Hello!

\large\boxed{p = 5  \text{ } kgm/s}

Use the equation for momentum:

p = mv

Plug in the given mass and velocity into the equation:

p = 10 * 0.5

p = 5 kgm/ s
