Answer:

T=0.372 s, f=2.7 Hz, w=16.9 rad/s, k=179.2 N/m, v= 8.78 m/s, F= 48.4 N

Explanation:

a.)

Period: It is already given in the question "oscillator repeats its motion every 0.372 s".

So T=0.372 s

b)

frequency= f = 1/ T

f = 1/ 0.372

f=2.7 Hz

c).

Angular frequency= w= 2πf

w= 2*π*2.7

w=16.9 rad/s

d)

Spring Constant:

As w=\sqrt{k/m}

⇒w²= k/m

⇒k= m*w²

⇒k= 0.628 * 16.9² N/m

⇒k=179.2 N/m

e)

The mass will have maximum speed when it passes through the mean position.

At mean position

Maximum elastic potential energy = Maximum kinetic energy

1/2 k A² = 1/2 m v²    ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

⇒ v=\sqrt{k A^2/m}

⇒ v= \sqrt{179.2 * 0.27/ 0.628}\

⇒ v= 8.78 m/s

f)

Maximum force will be exerted on the block when it is at maximum distance.

F= k* A   ( A is amplitude of oscillation)

F= 179.2 * 0.27 N

F= 48.4 N

"A short-wave radio antenna is supported by two guy wires, 150 ft and 170 ft long. Each wire is attached to the top of the anten
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The anchor points are 78.37 ft and 111.99 ft

Explanation:

If you look at the attached (Fig 1) you will find that the union of antenna and its guy wires forms two right triangles. To solve problems that involve this kind of triangles, you can apply trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, etc) and Pythagoras Theorem. Trigonometric functions states the relation between angles, sides and hypotenuse of a right triangle. If you look Fig2, considering α angle, "b" is the opposite side, "a" the adjacent side and "c" the hypotenuse. Then

a) Sine (α) = b/c it means opposite side/hypotenuse

b) Cosine (α)= a/c, it means adjacent side/hypotenuse

c) Tangent (α) = b/a opposite side/adjacent side.

Pythagoras theorem states that if you called "a" and "b", the sides of the right triangle, and "c" the hypotenuse, then:

                                      a² + b² = c²    

As the problem states the lengths 150 ft and 170 ft represents the value of the hypotenuse of each triangle and 65° is one of the angles of the triangle with 150 ft hypotenuse. So you can solve this using sin (65°) to find the height of the antenna (h) and then the two distances (x and y,).

Sine (65°) = h/ 150 ft ⇒ Sine (65°) x 150ft = h ⇒ h = 127.9 ft.

To find x : Cosine (65°) = x/ 150 ft ⇒ Cosine (65°) x 150 ft = x

⇒ x = 78.37 ft.

And finally, to find y we can apply Pythagoras theorem

(170 ft)² = (127.9 ft)² + y² ⇒ y² = (170 ft)² - (127.9 ft)² ⇒ y = 111.99 ft

Summarizing, the anchor points are 78.37 ft and 111.99 ft

A billiard ball moving at 0.5 m/s strikes another identical billiard ball, which is at rest, in an elastic head-on collision on
NikAS [45]

Answer: assuming that the billiard balls are of identical weight the impacted billiard ball will move forward at around 0.5m/s (not considering energy conservation). The ball impacting the 2nd one would stop because most of its Kinetic energy would have been transferred into the not moving ball.

Explanation: hope this helps!

Answer:

D. location

Explanation:

The gravitational field strength of Earth is determined by the virtue of the location within the Earth's gravitational field.

That's why all objects regardless of their mass, shape, and size free fall towards the Earth with an acceleration equal to the acceleration at that location in the absence of air resistance.

According to the gravitational force between two bodies, the force experienced by one body due to the other is independent of its own mass.

The gravitational force is given by equation

                                  F =  GMm/r²

If F is the force acting on the smaller body of mass 'm', then

                                 F = ma

Therefore, the equation becomes,

                                ma = GMm/r²

                                   a = GM/r²

The value of 'a' changes with respect to the value of 'r' such that if 'r' is the radius of the Earth, then the acceleration at a height 'h' from Earth surface is given by

                                 a = GM/(r+h)²

Here it is clear that the acceleration at any point is only the inherent property of the Earth itself.

The gravitational field strength of Earth is determined by the virtue of the location within the Earth's gravitational field.

Can anyone please help me with answering this question? : An accelerating (speeding up) body has a Net Force acting in the direc
Katarina [22]
That's true.

Netwon's second law states that the resultant of the forces F acting on a body is equal to the product between its mass m and its acceleration a:
\sum F = ma
This means that if the net force acting on an object is different from zero (term on the left), than the acceleration of the object (term on the right) must be different from zero as well, and therefore the body is accelerating.

In particular, both F and a in the equation are vectors: this means that if the acceleration is positive, F and a have the same direction. In this problem, the acceleration is positive (because the object is speeding up), therefore the force and the acceleration have same direction.
