A block is attached to a horizontal spring and oscillates back and forth on a frictionless horizontal surface at a frequency of

4.42 Hz. The amplitude of the motion is 8.26 x 10-2 m. At the point where the block has its maximum speed, it suddenly splits into two identical parts, only one part remaining attached to the spring.
(a) What is the amplitude and
(b) the frequency of the simple harmonic motion that exists after the block splits?

Answer:

Amplitude = 0.058m

Frequency = 6.25Hz

Explanation:

Given

Amplitude (A) = 8.26 x 10-2 m

Frequency (f) = 4.42Hz

Conversation of energy before split

½mv² = ½KA²

Make A the subject of formula

A = $v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

Conversation of energy after split

½(m/2)V'² = ½(m/2)V² = ½KA'²

½(m/2)V² = ½KA'²

Make A the subject of formula

First divide both sides by ½

(m/2)V² = KA'²

Divide both sides by K

$\frac{m}{2K}$ V² = A'²

$v\sqrt{\frac{m}{2k} }$ = A'

Substitute $v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$ for A in the above equation

A' = A/√2

A' = 8.26 x 10^-2/√2

A' = 0.05840702012600882

Amplitude after split = 0.058 (Approximated)

Frequency (f') = f√2

f' = 4.42√2

f' = 6.25082394568908011

Frequency after split = 6.25Hz (approximated)

Answer:

Explanation:

A common demonstration is to put a ringing alarm clock or bell in the bell jar, and when the vacuum is created, you can no longer hear the sound of the clock/bell.

The bell is connected to a lab pack or batteries and rung to show pupils it can be heard under normal circumstances. The bell jar is then connected to a vacuum pump using a vacuum plate (see Fig 2) and the air is removed from inside creating a near vacuum. The bell is then again rung. This time however, it cannot be heard.

Small low voltage buzzers can be used as a bell replacement for the bell and work in exactly the same way though teachers generally prefer bells as students may be able to see the hammer moving, proving that it is actually ringing even though they cannot hear it.

Some vacuum pumps are better than others at keeping a strong vacuum though if you cannot completely lose the sound, you will at least notice the volume decreasing.

Sound is simply a series of longitudinal waves travelling from the source, through the air to our ears. Without air present, these waves cannot form and therefore sound cannot be conveyed.

In a longitudinal wave the particles oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave movement unlike transverse waves which like waves on the sea, single particles travel up and down and not in the direction of the wave.

Because you will not be able to create a perfect vacuum, you may still be able to hear the bell ring slightly. Vibrations from the ringing bell can also travel up to the bung in the bell jar which in turn may resonate the jar slightly. This means you may hear the bell ring, however strong the vacuum. To compensate for this, try to insulate the bell as much as possible from the bell jar. Hanging the bell using elastic cord means some of the vibrations will be absorbed by the cord and not be transferred to the bell jar.

The distance between earth and sun is 15000000km. Light takes 499 seconds to reach earth from sun. Calculate the speed of light

iVinArrow [24]

To solve the problem we must know about the relationship between Speed, distance, and Time.

<h3>What is the relationship between Speed, distance, and Time?</h3>

We know that sped, distance, and time all are in a relationship to each other. this relationship can be given as,

$\rm{Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

The speed of the light is 30,060.12 km/sec.

Given to us

The distance between the earth and the sun is 15000000km
Light takes 499 seconds to reach earth from the sun.

We know that speed can be described as,

$\rm{Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

Therefore,

<h3>What is the speed of the light?</h3>

$\text{Speed of light} = \dfrac{\text{Distance between the earth and the sun}}{\text{Time taken by the light to travel the distance}}$

Substitute the value,

$\text{Speed of light} = \dfrac{15,000,000\ km}{499\ seconds}$

$\text{Speed of light} = 30,060.12\ km/sec$

Hence, the speed of the light is 30,060.12 km/sec.

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$F_{sprinter}=110.4N$

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

$W=F_{total}.d$

So

$W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N$

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

So

$F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N$
