Answer:
See the answers below.
Explanation:
to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.
i)
The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.
We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.
For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.
ΣF = 0

Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.
ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.
ΣM = 0
![(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%2815%2A9%29%20-%20%2818%2AW%29%20%3D%200%5C%5C135%20%3D%2018%2AW%5C%5CW%20%3D%207.5%20%5BN%5D)
Answer:
the spring constant k = 
the value for the damping constant 
Explanation:
From Hooke's Law

Thus; the spring constant k = 
The amplitude is decreasing 37% during one period of the motion


Therefore; the value for the damping constant 
Answer:
9.3m/s
Explanation:
Based on the law of conservation of momentum
Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision
m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2
m1 = 8kg
u1 = 15.4m/s
m2 = 10kg
u2 = 0m/s(at rest)
v1 = 3.9m/s
Required
v2.
Substitute
8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2
123.2=31.2+10v2
123.2-31.2 = 10v2
92 = 10v2
v2 = 92/10
v2 = 9.2m/s
Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s
