Answer:
a) f=0.1 Hz ; b) T=10s
c)λ= 36m
d)v=3.6m/s
e)amplitude, cannot be determined
Explanation:
Complete question is:
Determine, if possible, the wave's (a) frequency, (b) period, (c) wavelength, (d) speed, and (e) amplitude.
Given:
number of wave crests 'n'= 5
pass in a time't' 54.0s
distance between two successive crests 'd'= 36m
a) Frequency of the waves 'f' can be determined by dividing number of wave crests with time, so we have
f=n/t
f= 5/ 54 => 0.1Hz
b)The time period of wave 'T' is the reciprocal of the frequency
therefore,
T=1/f
T=1/0.1
T=10 sec.
c)wavelength'λ' is the distance between two successive crests i.e 36m
Therefore, λ= 36m
d) speed of the wave 'v' can be determined by the product of frequency and wavelength
v= fλ => 0.1 x 36
v=3.6m/s
e) For amplitude, no data is given in this question. So, it cannot be determined.
Solution :
Given :
Mass attached to the spring = 4 kg
Mass dropped = 6 kg
Force constant = 100 N/m
Initial amplitude = 2 m
Therefore,
a).
= 10 m/s
Final velocity, v at equilibrium position, v = 5 m/s
Now,
A' = amplitude = 1.4142 m
b).
m' = 2m
Hence,
c).
Therefore, factor
Thus, the energy will change half times as the result of the collision.
Answer:
The effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
Explanation:
First, we can use kinematics to obtain the initial velocity of the performer. Since we know the angle at which he was launched, the horizontal distance and the time in which it's traveled, we can calculate the speed by:
(This is correct because the horizontal motion has acceleration zero). Then:
Now, we can use energy to obtain the spring constant of the firing mechanism. By the conservation of mechanical energy, considering the instant in which the elastic band is at its maximum stretch as t=0, and the instant in which the performer flies free of the bands as final time, we have:
Then, plugging in the given values, we obtain:
Finally, the effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
Actually Welcome to the concept of Efficiency.
Here we can see that, the Input work is given as 2.2 x 10^7 J and the efficiency is given as 22%
The efficiency is => 22% => 22/100.
so we get as,
E = W(output) /W(input)
hence, W(output) = E x W(input)
so we get as,
W(output) = (22/100) x 2.2 x 10^7
=> W(output) = 0.22 x 2.2 x 10^7 => 0.484 x 10^7
hence, W(output) = 4.84 x 10^6 J
The useful work done on the mass is 4.84 x 10^6 J
It's momentum is twice as much.
