A 10.0 N package of whole wheat flour is suddenly placed on the pan of a scale such as you find in grocery stores. The pan is su
inna [77]

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

For a damped simple harmonic oscillator, the block has a mass of 1.2 kg and the spring constant is 9.8 N/m. The damping force is
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

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)=A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}}cos(w't+\phi)=A(t)cos(w't+\phi)

where A(t)=A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}}

 A₀ is the amplitude at t=0 and

w' is the angular frequency of damped SHM, which is given by,

w'=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}-\frac{b^{2}}{4m^{2}} }

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

⇒A₀e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}} =A₀/8

⇒e^{\frac{bt}{2m}}=8

applying logarithm on both sides

⇒\frac{bt}{2m}=ln(8)

⇒t=\frac{2m*ln(8)}{b}

substituting the values

t=\frac{2*1.2*ln(8)}{0.21}=24s(approx)

b) w'=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}-\frac{b^{2}}{4m^{2}} }

w'=\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{1.2}-\frac{0.21^{2}}{4*1.2^{2}}}=2.86s^{-1}

T'=\frac{2\pi}{w'}, where T' is time period of damped SHM

⇒T'=\frac{2\pi}{2.86}=2.2s

let n be number of oscillations made

then, nT'=t

⇒n=\frac{24}{2.2}=11(approx)

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force FR=F1+F2FR=F1+F2. Assume that F1F1F_1 = 235 lblb and F2F2F_2 = 350 l
DENIUS [597]

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

A particle moving along the x-axis has its velocity described by the function vx =2t2m/s, where t is in s. its initial position
Nesterboy [21]

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,

v_x= \frac{dx}{dt}

Write an equation for x.

dx=v_xdt\\ x=\int v_xdt

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

x=\int v_xdt\\ =\int2t^2dt\\ =\frac{2t^3}{3} +C

Here, the constant of integration is C and it is determined by applying initial conditions.

When t =0, x = 1. 1m

x= \frac{2t^3}{3} +C\\ x_0=1.1\\ x= (\frac{2t^3}{3} +1.1)m

Substitute 2.0s for t.

x= (\frac{2t^3}{3} +1.1)m\\ =\frac{2(2.0)^3}{3} +1.1\\ =6.43 m

The position of the particle at t =2.0 s is <u>6.4m</u>

Explain why data from at least three seismic stations are needed to locate an earthquake epicenter
Helga [31]
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.
