Answer:
0.025 m
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying Hook's law
F = ke................... Equation 1
Where F = Force, k = spring constant of the scale, e = maximum distance at which the spring will compress.
make e the subject of the equation
e = F/k....................... Equation 2
Given: F = 10 N, e = 395 N/m
Substitute these values into equation 2
e = 10/395
e = 0.025 m
Answer:
a) t=24s
b) number of oscillations= 11
Explanation:
In case of a damped simple harmonic oscillator the equation of motion is
m(d²x/dt²)+b(dx/dt)+kx=0
Therefore on solving the above differential equation we get,
x(t)=A₀
where A(t)=A₀
A₀ is the amplitude at t=0 and
is the angular frequency of damped SHM, which is given by,

Now coming to the problem,
Given: m=1.2 kg
k=9.8 N/m
b=210 g/s= 0.21 kg/s
A₀=13 cm
a) A(t)=A₀/8
⇒A₀
=A₀/8
⇒
applying logarithm on both sides
⇒
⇒
substituting the values

b) 

, where
is time period of damped SHM
⇒
let
be number of oscillations made
then, 
⇒
Answer:
585lb
Explanation:
Given the following
F1 = 235lb
F2 = 350lb
The resultant is expressed as;
FR = F1+F2
Substitute the given values
FR = 235+350
FR = 585lb
Hence the magnitude of the resultant is 585lb
The position of the object at time t =2.0 s is <u>6.4 m.</u>
Velocity vₓ of a body is the rate at which the position x of the object changes with time.
Therefore,

Write an equation for x.

Substitute the equation for vₓ =2t² in the integral.

Here, the constant of integration is C and it is determined by applying initial conditions.
When t =0, x = 1. 1m

Substitute 2.0s for t.

The position of the particle at t =2.0 s is <u>6.4m</u>
Each station has a circle made of possible epicenters. When you have atleast 3 epicenters you can narrow it down to 1 epicenter and there's that final point. Each station can detect how far away the epicenter was (by transverve body waves). When you only have one seismic station it's impossible to locate an earthquake epicenter.
