Two identical blocks are connected to opposite ends of a compressed spring. the blocks initially slide together on a frictionles

s surface with a velocity v to the right. at some instant, the left block is moving at v/2 to the left and the other block is moving to the right. what is the speed of the center of the mass of they system at that instant?

Answer:

v to the right.

Explanation:

<u>If there is no external force on the system, then the velocity of the center of mass is </u><u>constant</u><u>. </u>

The initial velocity of center of mass is v to the right. Therefore, the velocity of the center of mass at any point is v to the right.

oscillating spring mass systems can be used to experimentally determine an unknown mass without using a mass balance. a student
puteri [66]

Answer:

Mass, m = 6.18 kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency, F = 10 Hz

Spring constant, k = 250 N/m

We know that pie, π = 22/7

To find the mass, we would use the following formula;

F = 1/2π√(k/m)

Where;

F is the frequency of oscillation.

k is the spring constant.

m is the mass of the spring.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = 1/2 * 22/7 * √250/m

10 = 22/14 * √250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

140 = 22 * √250/m

Dividing both sides by 22, we have;

140/22 = √250/m

6.36 = √250/m

Taking the square of both sides, we have;

6.36² = (√250/m)²

40.45 = 250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

40.45m = 250

Mass, m = 250/40.45

Mass, m = 6.18 kg
