Answer:

the spring constant k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

the value for the damping constant \\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s

Explanation:

From Hooke's Law

F = kx\\\\k =\frac{F}{x}\\\\where \ F = mg\\\\k = \frac{mg}{x}\\\\given \ that:\\\\mass \ of \ each \ wheel = 425 \ kg\\\\x = 7.7cm = 0.077 m\\\\g = 9.8 \ m/s^2\\\\Then;\\\\k = \frac{425 \ kg * 9.8 \ m/s^2}{0.077 \ m}\\\\k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

Thus; the spring constant k = 5.409*10^4 \ N/m

The amplitude is decreasing 37% during one period of the motion

e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= \frac{37}{100}\\\\e^{\frac{-bT}{2m}}= 0.37\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = In(0.37)\\\\\frac{-bT}{2m} = -0.9943\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{T}\\\\b = \frac{2m(0.9943)}{\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}}\\\\b = \frac{m(0.9943) \ ( \omega) )}{ \pi}

b = \frac{m(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m})}}{\pi}\\\\b = \frac{425*(0.9943)(\sqrt{\frac{5.409*10^4}{425}) }    }{3.14}\\\\b = 1518.24 \ kg/s\\\\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s

Therefore; the value for the damping constant \\ \\b = 1.518 *10^3 \ kg/s

What does it mean that are bodies are in osmotic equilibrium but chemical and electrical disequilibrium? Why? What molecules are
Whitepunk [10]

Explanation:

The point is that water is moving smoothly but that the solutes are not.Even though the containers are chemically different (chemical disequilibrium), once all the solutes in one container are contrasted to all the solutes in another container, both have the same total solutes concentrations (this means that they are in osmotic balance).

<h3>Question 1</h3>

Answer

option C) velocity

Explanation

acceleration =  Δv ÷ Δt

<h3>Question 2</h3>

Answer

option C) m/s²

Explanation

Δv ÷ Δt

= m/s ÷ s

= m/s x 1/s

= m/s²

<h3>Question 3</h3>

Answer

option B) velocity has both direction and speed.

That is why velocity can be negative but speed can not and velocity is rate of change of displacement where as speed is rate of change of distance.

a catcher "gives" with the ball when he catches a 0.196 kg baseball moving at 31 m/s. if he moves his glove a distance of 5.32 c
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

3540.5N

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m= 0.196kg

speed  v= 31m/s

distance r= 5.32cm = 0.0532m

Step two

The expression relating force, mass, velocity and distance is

F= mv^2/r

substitute we have

F=0.196*31^2/0.0532

F=0.196*961/0.0532

F=188.356/0.0532

F=3540.5N
