A mass is hung from a spring and set in motion so that it oscillates continually up and down. The velocity v of the weight at ti

me t is given by the equation v=−2 cos(3πt) with v measured in feet per second and t measured in seconds. Determine the maximum velocity of the mass and the amount of time it takes for the mass to move from its lowest position to its highest position.

Answer:

the maximum velocity of the mass v (max) = 2 ft/s

the amount of time it takes for the mass to move from its lowest position to its highest position∆t = 1/3 seconds = 0.33 seconds

Explanation:

Given the velocity equation;

v=−2 cos(3πt)

The maximum velocity would be at cos(3πt) = 1 or cos(3πt) = -1

v (max) = -2 × -1 = 2 ft/s

The time taken for the mass to move from lowest position to highest position

At Lowest position, vertical velocity equals zero.

At highest position, vertical velocity equals zero.

The time taken for the mass to move from one v = 0 to the next v = 0

Cos(π/2) = 0 and

Cos(3π/2) = 0

For the first;

Cos(3πt) = cos(π/2)

3πt1 = π/2

t1 = π/2(3π)

t1 = 1/6 second

For the second;

Cos(3πt) = cos(3π/2)

3πt2 = 3π/2

t2 = 3π/2(3π)

t2 = 1/2 second

∆t = t2 - t1 = 1/2 - 1/6 = 3/6 - 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3 seconds

∆t = 1/3 seconds

State the success of j j Thompson model theory​
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Thomson's atomic model was successful in explaining the overall neutrality of the atom. However, its propositions were not consistent with the results of later experiments. In 1906, J. J. Thomson was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his theories and experiments on electricity conduction by gases.

Summary. J.J. Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of the atom, which had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup."
