Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.00 ✕ 105 kg on springs that ha

ve adjustable force constants. Its function is to dampen wind-driven oscillations of the building by oscillating at the same frequency as the building is being driven—the driving force is transferred to the object, which oscillates instead of the entire building.
(a) What effective force constant should the springs have to make the object oscillate with a period of 2.40 s?

(b) What energy is stored in the springs for a 2.20-m displacement from equilibrium?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m=4\times 10^5\ kg

(a) Time period of oscillation, T = 2.4 s

The formula for the time period of spring is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

Where

k is the force constant

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 \times 4\times 10^5}{(2.4)^2}

k=2.74\times 10^6\ N/m

(b) Displacement in the spring, x = 2.2 m

Energy stored in the spring is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.74\times 10^6\ N/m\times (2.2\ m)^2

U=6.63\times 10^6\ J

Hence, this is the required solution.

If Sarah melts 10g of tin. What mass of melted tin would she have at the end of the experiment?​
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

10g

Explanation:

As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".

Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...

Hence,

The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...
