Consider a block of mass m attached to two springs, one on the left with spring constant k1 and one on the right with spring con

stant k2. Each spring is attached on the other side to a wall, and the block slides without friction on a horizontal surface. When the block is sitting at x = 0, both springs are relaxed. Write Newton’s second law, F = ma, as a differential equation for an arbitrary position x of the block. What is the period of oscillation of this system?

Answer:

T= 2\pi\times sqrt(m/(k1+k2))

Explanation:

When the block is displaced by x units

F= spring force

two springs are connected parallel

F =-k_1x - k_2x

Writing Newtons second law, F = ma

-k_1x - k_2x =ma

-k_1x - k_2x = mx''

a= x" ( differentiating x w.r.t time twice)

x''+(k_1/m + k_2/m) x=0

this the standard form of equation of oscillation spring mass system

This is the differential equation, x'' means that double differentiation of x , i.e, x'' is acceleration

since,  Period T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{K_{eq.}} }

therefore,

T= 2\pi\times sqrt(m/(k1+k2))

The flagpole is held vertical by two ropes. The first of these ropes has a tension in it of 100 N and is at an angle of 60° to t
KatRina [158]

Answer:

T₂ = 123.9 N,  θ = 66.2º

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we use the law of equilibrium, since the diaphragm does not appear, let's use the adjoint to see the forces in the system.

The tension T1 = 100 N, we create a reference frame centered on the pole

X axis

       T₁ₓ - T_{2x} = 0

        T_{2x}= T₁ₓ

Y axis y

      T_{1y} + T_{2y} - 200N = 0

      T_{2y} = 200 -T_{1y}

let's use trigonometry to find the component of the stresses

         sin 60 = T_{1y} / T₁

         cos 60 = t₁ₓ / T₁

         T_{1y} = T₁ sin 60

         T1x = T₁ cos 60

         T_{1y}y = 100 sin 60 = 86.6 N

         T₁ₓ = 100 cos 60 = 50 N

for voltage 2 it is done in the same way

         T_{2y} = T₂ sin θ

         T₂ₓ = T₂ cos θ

we substitute

         

           T₂ sin θ= 200 - 86.6 = 113.4

           T₂ cos θ = 50              (1)

to solve the system we divide the two equations

           tan θ = 113.4 / 50

           θ = tan⁻¹ 2,268

           θ = 66.2º

we caption in equation 1

           T₂ cos 66.2 = 50

           T₂ = 50 / cos 66.2

           T₂ = 123.9 N

What is the magnitude of the torque that the axle must apply to prevent the disk from rotating?
mihalych1998 [28]

The required torque at the axle, is given by the difference between the

moments of the applied forces.

The torque required is <u>19.62 N·m counterclockwise</u>

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

Mass of the disk, m = 5.0 kg

Location of the axle = Half the radius of the disk

Diameter of the disk, D = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Applied mass, 0.1 m from the axle = 15 kg

Applied mass, 0.3 m from the axle = 10 kg

Required:

Magnitude of torque at the axle that prevent the disk from rotating

Solution:

Torque needed = Clockwise moment - Counterclockwise moment

Clockwise moment = (10 kg × 0.3 m + 5 kg × 0.1 m) × 9.81 m/s² = 34.335 N·m

Counterclockwise moment = 15 kg × 0.1 m  × 9.81 m/s² = 14.715 N·m

τ + Counterclockwise moment = Clockwise moment

τ + 14.715 N·m = 34.335 N·m

Torque required, τ = 34.335 N·m - 14.715 N·m = 19.62 N·m

Torque required, τ = <u>19.62 N·m counterclockwise</u>

A solid disk of mass 2 kg and radius 2 m is given a horizontal push of 20N at a point .3 m above its center. a. What is the mini
Margaret [11]

Answer:

\mu_s=1.0205

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of solid disk, m=2\ kg
  • radius of disk, r=2\ m
  • force of push applied to disk, F=20\ N
  • distance of application of force from the center, s=0.3\ m

<em>For the condition of no slip the force of  static friction must be greater than the applied force so that there is no skidding between the contact surfaces at the contact point.</em>

\therefore F

where:

f_s = static frictional force

\Rightarrow 20

\Rightarrow 20

\Rightarrow 20

\mu_s>1.0204
