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

An 8.5 kg crate is pulled 5.1 m up a 30 degree incline by a rope angled 17 degrees above the incline. The tension in the rope is
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1. a W_t=746.63 J

  b E_p=212.415 J

  c W_n=183.96J

2. T_e=99.71J

Explanation:

a). The work done by the tension is:

W_t=T*dt

dt=\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=140N*\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=746.63 J

b). The work done potential of gravity

E_p=m*g*h

h=5.1*sin(17)

E_p=8.5kh*9.8*5.1*sin(30)

E_p=212.415 J

c). The work done by the normal force

W_n=N*d_n

d_n=5.1*sin(30)=2.55

W_n=8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)*2.55

W_n=183.96J

2. The increase in thermal energy is:

T_e=F*d

F_k=u_k*m*g=0.271*8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)

F_k=19.5N

T_e=19.55*5.1m

T_e=99.71J

For each of the following pairs of gas properties, describe the relationship between the properties, describe a simple system th
asambeis [7]

Answer:

For  each pair of properties of a gas, the relationships are (see the explanation for the description of the systems):

  1. (a) Volume and pressure: The relationship between them is inversely proportional.
  2. (b) Pressure and temperature: They have a directly proportional relationship.
  3. (c) Volume and temperature: They relationship is directly proportional.
  4. (d) Number of gas particles and pressure: The relationship is directly proportional between them.

Explanation:

1. Volume and pressure (temperature and amount of particles constant):

They have an inversely proportional relationship, because <em>if volume is reduced, the pressure increases, or if the volume increases, the pressure decreases</em>.

A simple system could be one similar to the one used by Boyle to test this relationship:

  • Seal the short extreme of a translucent J tube. It could be glass or plastic.
  • Put some water on it. As much as needed to have both sides of the tube filled.
  • Using a syringe, and a flexible small tube,inject a determined volume of air in the bottom in a way that the bubble is trapped in the seal side of the J tube.
  • Then if more water is added to the tube, it will increase the pressure (from the pressure definition is possible to in the trapped air, and is possible to measure the compression of the air bubble. The same is possible if using the syringe, and the flexible tube, some water is removed, and the increasing of volume could be observed.

2. Pressure and temperature (volume and amount of particles of the gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because <em>if temperature is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if the temperature increases, the pressure would increase, also</em>.

A simple system to show this is two cans of soda.

  • The can is rigid, so the volume is always constant, and the amount of gas inside the soda is the same.
  • Put one can under the sun, and the other in the cooler.
  • After a while, take it out the can in the cooler, and open both cans.
  • The one that was under the sun will "explode", in other words, it will liberate a lot of foam of gas and soda, meaning that the pressure inside the can was high.
  • The one that was in te cooler, won't liberate any foam, meaning that the pressure was low.

3. Volume and temperature (pressure and amount of particles of the gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because <em>if temperature is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if the temperature increases, the pressure will increase, also</em>.

A simple system to show this is a party balloon.

  • Fill the party balloon with some air, not enough to be close to explode, but enough to have it of a medium size. Tie the filling hole of the balloon.
  • The air inside the balloon would be at the same pressure than the atmosphere around it, so always will be at this pressure, and the close hole ensure that it has always the same amount of air inside.
  • Now is possible to use some heat source, for example as a hair dryer to increase the temperature of the balloon and its contents. The size of the balloon will increase. Then using water is possible to cool it down and watch how its size decreases.

4. Number of gas particles and pressure (volume and temperature of gas remains constant)

They have a directly proportional relationship, because <em>if the amount of gas particles is reduced, the pressure decreases, or if quantity of gas particles increases, the pressure will increase, also</em>.

A simple system to show this would be a bicycle tire:

  • The tire is rigid, so its volume is essentially constant, and the temperature would remains the same if not moving or driving it.
  • Using a tire gauge, it is possible to know the manometric pressure inside the tire, that is the difference between the actual pressure inside the tire and the atmospheric pressure.
  • Then each time that using an air pump some air is injected in the tire, it si possible to check the pressure inside it using the gauge, and observe how is increasing.
  • Also, is possible to open the valve, to allow some air to escape, then use the gauge to observe how the pressure decreases.

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?
lesya [120]

Answer:

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.
