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)

A driver in a 2290-kg car car traveling at 42.7 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefficient of friction betw

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

126.56 m

Explanation:

Applying,

-F = ma............. Equation 1

Where F = frictional force, m = mass of the car, a = acceleration.

Note: Frictional force is negative because it act in opposite direction to motion

But,

F = mgμ.......... Equation 2

Where g = acceleration due to gravity, μ = coefficient of friction

Substitute equation 2 in equation 1

-mgμ = ma

a = -gμ.............. Equation 3

From the question,

Given: μ = 0.735

Constant: 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in equation 3

a = -9.8×0.735

a = -7.203 m/s²

Finally,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 4

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, s = distance

From the question,

Given: u = 42.7 m/s, v = 0 m/s (to a stop), a = -7.203 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 4

0² = 42.7²+2(-7.203)s

-1823.29 = -14.406s

s = -1823.29/-14.406

s = 126.56 m

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 4.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The charge resides on the outer surface = $1.245 \times 10^{-12}$ C

Explanation:

Surface area of cell $(A) = 4.3\times 10^{-9} m^{2}$

Separation between two plate $(d) = 1.1 \times 10^{-8} m$

Dielectric constant $(k) = 4.2$

Potential difference $(\Delta V) = 85.7 \times 10^{-3} V$

The capacitance of parallel plate capacitor in free space is given by,

$C = \frac{\epsilon_{o} A }{d}$

Where $\epsilon_{o} =$ permittivity of free space = $8.85 \times 10^{-12}$

The Capacitance of capacitor is increase by $k$ times when it placed in dielectric medium.

$C_{dielectric} = \frac{k \epsilon_{o} A }{d}$

And we know that, $C = \frac{Q}{ \Delta V}$

So charge on the outer surface is given by,

$Q = \frac{k \epsilon A \Delta V }{d}$

$Q = \frac{4.2 \times 4.3 \times 10^{-9} \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 85.7\times 10^{-3} }{1.1 \times 10^{-8} }$

$Q = 1.245 \times 10^{-12}$

What of the following is the mathematical form of boyles law?

viva [34]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

V=1/p

By means of cross multiplication so by that we will have pv=1 which also implies p1v1=p2v2 coz boyles law states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to pressure provided that the temperature in kelvin remains constant

Describe what happens to the system inside of a refrigerator or freezer in terms of heat transfer, work, and conservation of ene

Over [174]

Answer: A. Work is done on the system and heat is transferred from the system for a net decrease in internal energy.

Explanation:

A refrigerator is a device which dispenses heat from the close system to a warmer area or in the surrounding. By dispensing the heat the internal temperature of the refrigerator drops. The system of refrigerator violates the second law of thermodynamics. As it performs the work to cool the region instead of heating the region. The work is done on the system and the internal energy decreases and the heat energy is liberated to the surrounding area. A refrigerator is an open system.
