A car with a total mass of 1800 kg (including passengers) is driving down a washboard road with bumps spaced 4.9 m apart. The ri

de is roughest—that is, the car bounces up and down with the maximum amplitude—when the car is traveling at 5.7 m/s. What is the spring constant of the car's springs? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:

k = 9.6 x 10^5 N/m or 9.6 kN/m

Explanation:

First, we need to use the expression to calculate the spring constant which is:

w² = k/m

Solving for k:

k = w²*m

To get the angular velocity:

w = 2πf

The problem is giving the linear velocity of the car which is 5.7 m/s. With this we can calculate the frequency of the car:

f = V/x

f = 5.7 / 4.9 = 1.16 Hz

Now the angular velocity:

w = 2π*1.16

w = 7.29 rad/s

Finally, solving for k:

k = (7.29)² * 1800

k = 95,659.38 N/m

In two significant figures it'll ve 9.6 kN/m

Answer:

k=96.16 kN/m

Explanation:

Maximum amplitude is achieved, when the system operated in the resonance- frequency of the bumps is equal to the natural frequency of the spring-mass system.

Frequency of the bumps, as an input force:

f=V/d, where d- distance between the bumps and V- velocity of the resonance.

From the natural frequency of the spring- mass system, we can get:

f^{2}=\frac{1}{2\pi }  \frac{k}{m}

For the given problem, then the value of k, can be found as:

k=2\pi mf^{2}=2\pi  m (\frac{V}{d}) ^{2} =96158 N/m

A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

A) ω = 6v/19L

B) K2/K1 = 3/19

Explanation:

Mr = Mass of rod

Mb = Mass of bullet = Mr/4

Ir = (1/3)(Mr)L²

Ib = MbRb²

Radius of rotation of bullet Rb = L/2

A) From conservation of angular momentum,

L1 = L2

(Mb)v(L/2) = (Ir+ Ib)ω2

Where Ir is moment of inertia of rod while Ib is moment of inertia of bullet.

(Mr/4)(vL/2) = [(1/3)(Mr)L² + (Mr/4)(L/2)²]ω2

(MrvL/8) = [((Mr)L²/3) + (MrL²/16)]ω2

Divide each term by Mr;

vL/8 = (L²/3 + L²/16)ω2

vL/8 = (19L²/48)ω2

Divide both sides by L to obtain;

v/8 = (19L/48)ω2

Thus;

ω2 = 48v/(19x8L) = 6v/19L

B) K1 = K1b + K1r

K1 = (1/2)(Mb)v² + Ir(w1²)

= (1/2)(Mr/4)v² + (1/3)(Mr)L²(0²)

= (1/8)(Mr)v²

K2 = (1/2)(Isys)(ω2²)

I(sys) is (Ir+ Ib). This gives us;

Isys = (19L²Mr/48)

K2 =(1/2)(19L²Mr/48)(6v/19L)²

= (1/2)(36v²Mr/(48x19)) = 3v²Mr/152

Thus, the ratio, K2/K1 =

[3v²Mr/152] / (1/8)(Mr)v² = 24/152 = 3/19

If a 60-watt bulb is used to light a room, how much current is flowing through the bulb given that the voltage is 120 volts?
Pavel [41]
 Well, if I understand correctly, I think it'd be 60, because 60+60= 120, but I may be wrong. It's not my best subject, but why not try to help even though I suck lol.

what volume of alcohol will have the same mass as 4.2m^3 of petrol? (density of alcohol 0.4kg/m^3 and petrol is 0.3kg/m^3)​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

       Mass  = density x volume

Volume of petrol  = 4.2m³

Density of petrol  = 0.3kgm⁻³  

       Mass of petrol  = 4.2 x 0.3  = 1.26kg

So;

      We can now find the volume of the alcohol

 Volume of alcohol = \frac{mass}{density}  

Mass of alcohol  = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol  = 0.4kgm⁻³  

  Volume of alcohol  = \frac{1.26}{0.4}   = 3.15m³
