If the mass of the object were doubled (keeping a constant radius on the string), what would have to happen to the period in ord

er to maintain the same tension on the string

Answer:

the period of the motion will increase by√2.

Explanation:

Given that the motion you are talking about is circular motion of a mass attached to the end of a string. I speculated that from the word usage in the question(e.g radius instead of length, tension, period). Given this is so we will have to recall the formula for the centripetral force Fc acting on the object which will be equal in magnitude to the tension in the string and will be given by,

F_{c} = mrw^{2}

if we want the above defined tension to remain constant when we double the mass and keep the radius of the string constant, the the w(angular frequency) must change which is related to the period by the below equation which will also change,

w = 2\pi /T

to find out by how much the period will change we see that from the first equation that if we double the mass making it 2m then the <em>w</em>² will have to decrease by 2 that is it will become <em>w</em>²/2, at the same time keeping r constant since it says that in the question. We now absorb the 2 inside the square and we get,

F_{c} = 2mr(w/\sqrt{2} )^{2} =2mr(2\pi /T\sqrt{2} )^{2}

we can clearly see that the new period has become,

T_{new} = \sqrt{2} T

where T is the old period. So the new period is √2 times the old period given by the equation above.

A biologist looking through a microscope sees a bacterium at r⃗ 1=2.2i^+3.7j^−1.2k^μm(1μm=10−6m). After 6.2 s , it's at r⃗ 2=4.6
stiv31 [10]

The Average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given values are in the vector form

Where,

dS = distance covered

dT = time interval

Now, to calculate distance covered, we have

|d S|=\sqrt{d S^{2}}

&

d S=r_{2}-r_{1}

d S=(4.6 i+1.9 k)-(2.2 i+3.7 j - 1.2 k)

d S=(4.6-2.2) i+(0-3.7) j+(1.9+1.2) k

d S=2.4 i-3.7 j+3.1 k

Now, putting these values in the standard formula to evaluate the average velocity, we get;

v_{a v g}=\frac{|\mathrm{d} S|}{d T}

v(a v g)=\frac{|\sqrt{\left\{\left(2.4^{2}\right)+\left(3.7^{2}\right)+\left(3.1^{2}\right)\right\}}|}{7.2}

As dT=7.2 sec

Now,

Solving the equation, we get;

v(a v g)=\frac{5.390732789}{7.2}

\begin{aligned}&v(a v g)=\frac{5.39}{7.2}\\&v(a v g)=0.748611111\\&v(a v g)=0.75 \text { units / sec }\end{aligned}

Hence, the average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

A football player runs from his own goal line to the opposing team's goal line returning to the fifty yard line all i 18.0s calc
ANTONII [103]
<span>assuming the pitch is 100yards long, the player runs 100yards to the other goal then a further 50 yards back to the 50-yard line. So he/she runs 150yards in 18s
150/18 = 8.33yards per second average speed.
Initial velocity = 0, average velocity =8.33
Vav = (Vinitial+Vfinal)/2
Vav = 4.16m/s</span>

An astronaut on a strange planet finds that she can jump a maximum horizontal distance of 14.0 m if her initial speed is 2.20 m/
pochemuha

We have the equation of motion

                          v^2 = u^2+2as , where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and s is the displacement.

In this case initial velocity = 2.20 m/s, final velocity = 0 m/s, displacement = 14 m

On substitution we will get 0 = 2.20^2+2*a*14

On solving we can find the acceleration value as -0.173m/s^2

So free fall acceleration = 0.173m/s^2
