Atomic number represents the number of protons in an element (which is the number at the top of the box) and the mass number is the amount of protons and neutrons together (at the bottom). The number of protons is the same as the amount of electrons.

A 94 g particle undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 8.3 mm, a maximum acceleration of magnitude 7.8 x 103 m/s2, and an unknown ph
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a) T = 6.49*10^-3 s

b) v = 8 m/s

c) E = 3 J

d) F = 733 N

e) F = 366.5 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of particle, m = 94 g = 0.094 kg

Amplitude of the particle, A = 8.3 mm = 8.3*10^-3 m

Maximum acceleration of particle, a = 7.8*10^3 m/s²

the equation describing Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

x = A cos (wt +φ)

To fond the acceleration of this relationship, we would have to integrate. Twice, the first would be a Velocity, and the second acceleration that we need.

Velocity = dx/dt = -Aw sin(wt + φ)

Acceleration = d²x/dt = -Aw² cos(wt + φ)

From the question, we were given, magnitude of acceleration to be 7.8*10^3 m/s²

Aw² = 7.8*10^3

w² = 7.8*10^3 / A

w² = 7.8*10^3 / 8.3*10^-3

w² = 939759

w = √939759

w = 969

Recall, T = 2π/w, so that

T = (2 * 3.142) / 969

T = 6.49*10^-3 s

Maximum speed = Aw

Maximum speed = 8.3*10^-3 * 969

Maximum speed = 8.0 m/s

Total mechanical energy oscillator =

mgx + 1/2mx² =

1/2mv(max)² =

1/2 * 0.094 * 8² =

3 J

Maximum displacement

x = A cos(wt + φ)

For x to be maximum here, then cos(wt + φ) Must be equal to 1

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = -Aw²

And force = mass * acceleration

Force = 0.094 * 7.8*10^3

Force = 733 N

x = A cos(wt + φ), where cos(wt + φ) = 1/2

d²x/dt² = -Aw² * 1/2

d²x/dt² = 733 * 0.5

= 366.5 N

A bicyclist is traveling at a speed of 20.0 m/s as he approaches the bottom of a hill. He decides to coast up the hill and stops
Rudiy27

Answer:

Vertical height of the hill, h = 20.4 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of the bicyclist, v = 20 m/s

To find,

The vertical height of the hill.

Solution,

Let h is the height of the hill. When he approaches the bottom of the hill, the loss in kinetic energy is equal to the gain in potential energy. Using the conservation of energy as,

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}

h=\dfrac{(20)^2}{2\times 9.8}

h = 20.4 meters

Therefore, the vertical height of the hill is 20.4 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

The earth travels around the sun once a year in an approximately circular orbit whose radius is 1.50x10^11 m. From this data det
seraphim [82]
(a) Determine the circumference of the Earth through the equation,
            C = 2πr
Substituting the known values, 
           C = 2π(1.50 x 10¹¹ m)
             C = 9.424 x 10¹¹ m

Then, divide the answer by time which is given to a year which is equal to 31536000 s. 
          orbital speed = (9.424 x 10¹¹ m)/31536000 s

               orbital speed = 29883.307 m/s

Hence, the orbital speed of the Earth is ~29883.307 m/s.

(b) The mass of the sun is ~1.9891 x 10³⁰ kg.
