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

daser333 [38]

Answer:

a) 0.31 rad/s

b) 100 J

c) 6.67 W

Explanation:

(a) the force would generate a torque of:

T = FR = 18 * 2.4 = 43.2 Nm

According to Newton 2nd law, the angular acceleration would be

\alpha = \frac{T}{I} = \frac{43.2}{2100} = 0.021 rad/s^2

It starts from rest, then after 15s it would achieve a speed of

\omega = \alpha t = 0.021 * 15 = 0.31 rad/s

(b) The distance angle swept by it is:

\theta = \frac{\alpha t^2}{2} = \frac{0.021 * 15^2}{2} = 2.314 rad

Hence the work by the child

W = T\theta = 43.2 *2.314  \approx 100 J

c) Average power to work per time unit

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{100}{15} = 6.67 W

sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

90 rpm = 90 / 60 rps

= 1.5 rps

= 1.5 x 2π rad /s

angular velocity of flywheel

ω = 3π rad /s

Let I be the moment of inertia of flywheel

kinetic energy = (1/2) I ω²

(1/2) I ω² = 10⁷ J

I = 2 x  10⁷ / ω²

=2 x  10⁷ / (3π)²

= 2.2538 x 10⁵ kg m²

Let radius of wheel be R

I = 1/2 M R² , M is mass of flywheel

= 1/2 πR² x t x d x R² , t is thickness , d is density of wheel .

1/2 πR⁴ x t x d = 2.2538 x 10⁵

R⁴ = 2 x 2.2538 x 10⁵ / πt d

= 4.5076 x 10⁵ / 3.14 x .1 x 7800

= 184

R= 3.683 m .

diameter = 7.366 m .

b ) centripetal accn required

= ω² R

= 9π² x 3.683

= 326.816 m /s²

When the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the KE is______ kg m2/s2.
DiKsa [7]
Answers are:
(1) KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2
(2) KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2
(3) KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2
(4) KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2


Explanation:

(1) Given mass = 0.125 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.125 * (16)
KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2

(2) Given mass = 0.250 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.250 * (16)
KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2

(3) Given mass = 0.375 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.375 * (16)
KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2

(4) Given mass = 0.500 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.5 * (16)
KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2
