A mass weighing 14 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet. The mass is attached to a dashpot device that offers a damping force numeri

cally equal to β (β > 0) times the instantaneous velocity. Determine the values of the damping constant β so that the subsequent motion is overdamped, critically damped, and underdamped. (If an answer is an interval, use interval notation. Use g = 32 ft/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.)

Answer:

The motion is over-damped when λ^2 - w^2 > 0 or when b^{2} > 0.86

The motion is critically when λ^2 - w^2 = 0 or when b^{2} = 0.86

The motion is under-damped when λ^2 - w^2 < 0 or when b^{2} < 0.86

Explanation:

Using the newton second law

k is the spring constante

b positive damping constant

m mass attached

m\frac{d^{2} x}{dt^{2}} = - kx - b\frac{dx}{dt}

x(t) is the displacement from the equilibrium position

\frac{d^{2} x}{dt^{2}} +\frac{b}{m}\frac{dx}{dt} + \frac{k}{m}x = 0

Converting units of weights in units of mass (equation of motion)

m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{14}{32} = 0.43 slug

From hook's law we can calculate the spring constant k

k = \frac{W}{s} = \frac{14}{2} = 7 lb/ft

If we put m and k into the DE, we get

\frac{d^{2} x}{dt^{2}} +\frac{b}{0.43}\frac{dx}{dt} + 16.28x = 0

Denoting the constants

2λ = \frac{b}{m} = \frac{b}{0.43}

λ = b/0.215

w^{2} = \frac{k}{m} = 16.28

λ^2 - w^2 = \frac{b^{2} }{0.046} - 16.28

This way,

The motion is over-damped when λ^2 - w^2 > 0 or when b^{2} > 0.86

The motion is critically when λ^2 - w^2 = 0 or when b^{2} = 0.86

The motion is under-damped when λ^2 - w^2 < 0 or when b^{2} < 0.86

Hi there!

Angular momentum is equivalent to:

\large\boxed{L = I\omega}

L = angular momentum (kgm²/s)

I = moment of inertia (kgm²)

ω = angular velocity (rad/sec)

Plug in the given values for moment of inertia and angular speed:

L = (0.028)(40) = \boxed{1.12 kgm^2/s}

A stone is dropped from the top a 45m hign building how fast will it moving when it reaches the ground? Ande what will its veloc
posledela

Answer:

29.7 m/s fast, velocity is 29.7 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v² = u²+2gs...................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = distance.

Given: u = 0 m/s (dropped from height), s = 45 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2×9.8×45

v² = 882

v = √(882)

v = 29.7 m/s.

Hence the stone will be moving 29.7 m/s fast and the velocity is also 29.7 m/s
