Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

a) $T=0.0031416s$

b) $v_{max}=6.283\frac{m}{s}$

c) $E=0.1974J$

d) $F=80N$

e) $F=40N$

Explanation:

1) Important concepts

Simple harmonic motion is defined as "the motion of a mass on a spring when it is subject to the linear elastic restoring force given by Hooke's Law (F=-Kx). The motion experimented by the particle is sinusoidal in time and demonstrates a single resonant frequency".

2) Part a

The equation that describes the simple armonic motion is given by $X=Acos(\omega t +\phi)$ (1)

And taking the first and second derivate of the equation (1) we obtain the velocity and acceleration function respectively.

For the velocity:

$\frac{dX}{dt}=v(t)=-A\omega sin(\omega t +\phi)$ (2)

For the acceleration

$\frac{d^2 X}{dt}=a(t)=-A\omega^2 cos(\omega t+\phi)$ (3)

As we can see in equation (3) the acceleration would be maximum when the cosine term would be -1 and on this case:

$A\omega^2=8x10^{3}\frac{m}{s^2}$

Since we know the amplitude A=0.002m we can solve for $\omega$ like this:

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{8000\frac{m}{s^2}}{0.002m}}=2000\frac{rad}{s}$

And we with this value we can find the period with the following formula

$T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2 \pi}{2000\frac{rad}{s}}=0.0031416s$

3) Part b

From equation (2) we see that the maximum velocity occurs when the sine function is euqal to -1 and on this case we have that:

$v_{max}=A\omega =0.002mx2000\frac{rad}{s}=4\frac{m rad}{s}=4\frac{m}{s}$

4) Part c

In order to find the total mechanical energy of the oscillator we can use this formula:

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_{max}=\frac{1}{2}(0.01kg)(6.283\frac{m}{s})^2=0.1974J$

5) Part d

When we want to find the force from the 2nd Law of Newton we know that F=ma.

At the maximum displacement we know that X=A, and in order to that happens $cos(\omega t +\phi)=1$ , and we also know that the maximum acceleration is given by::

$|\frac{d^2X}{dt^2}|=A\omega^2$

So then we have that:

$F=ma=mA\omega^2$

And since we have everything we can find the force

$F=ma=0.01Kg(0.002m)(2000\frac{rad}{s})^2 =80N$

6) Part e

When the mass it's at the half of it's maximum displacement the term $cos(\omega t +\phi)=1/2$ and on this case the acceleration would be given by;

$|\frac{d^2X}{dt^2}|=A\omega^2 cos(\omega t +\phi)=A\omega^2 \frac{1}{2}$

And the force would be given by:

$F=ma=\frac{1}{2}mA\omega^2$

And replacing we have:

$F=\frac{1}{2}(0.01Kg)(0.002m)(2000\frac{rad}{s})^2 =40N$

How much work was done by a hot air balloon to lift up a 100 Newton to a height of 300 meters?

Monica [59]

So, the work was done by that hot air-balloon is <u>30,000 J or 30 kJ</u>.

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! In this question, I will help you. <u>Work is the amount of force exerted to cause an object to move a certain distance from its starting point</u>. In physics, the amount of work will be proportional to the increase in force and increase in displacement. Amount of work can be calculated by this equation :

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times s}}}$

With the following condition :

W = work (J)
F = force (N)
s = shift or displacement (m)

Now, the s (displacement) can be written as ∆h (altitude change) because the object move to vertical line. The formula can also be changed to:

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times \Delta h}}}$

With the following condition :

W = work (J)
F = force (N)
$\sf{\Delta h}$ = change of altitude (m)

If an object has mass, then the object will also be affected by gravity. Always remember that F = m × g. So that :

$\sf{W = F \times \Delta h}$

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = m \times g \times \Delta h}}}$

With the following condition :

W = work (J)
m = mass of the object (kg)
g = acceleration of the gravity (m/s²)
$\sf{\Delta h}$ = change of altitude (m)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

F = force = 100 N
$\sf{\Delta h}$ = change of altitude 300 m

What was asked :

W = work = ... J

Step by step :

$\sf{W = F \times \Delta h}$

$\sf{W = 100 \times 300}$

$\boxed{\sf{W = 30,000 \: J = 30 \: kJ}}$

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the work was done by that hot air-balloon is 30,000 J or 30 kJ.

A 1.5-kg block slides at rest starts sliding down a snow-covered hill Point A, which has an altitude of 10 m. There is no fricti

damaskus [11]

Answer:

the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of the block slides = 1.5 - kg

height = 10 m

Force constant = 200 N/m

distance of rough surface patch = 20 m

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15

In order to determine the speed of the block when it reaches point B.

We consider the equation for the energy conservation in the system which can be represented by:

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh$

$\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=gh$

$v^2=2 \times g \times h$

$v^2=2 \times 9.8 \times 10$

$v=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 10$

$v=\sqrt{196$

v = 14 m/s

Thus; the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s

Jeff of the Jungle swings on a 7.6-m vine that initially makes an angle of 32 ∘ with the vertical.

shtirl [24]

To solve this problem we will use the trigonometric concepts to find the distance h, which will allow us to find the speed of Jeff and that will finally be the variable that will indicate the total tension, since it is the variable of the centrifugal Force given in the vine at the lowest poing of the swing.

From the image:

$cos (32) = \frac{(7.6-h)}{7.6}$
