It is true that the diameter of the moon is a little less than the distance across the United States.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

Moon is the natural satellite of our Earth. It revolves around the Earth due to the gravitational force acting on the moon. The moon also has its own gravitational force. The gravitational force of moon is \frac{1}{6} t h of the gravitational force on Earth.

The mass of moon is 7.34 \times 10^{22} kg while the mass of the Earth is 5.972 \times 10^{24} kg. So the moon’s mass is very very less than that of Earth. So the diameter of moon is found as 3,472 km while the diameter of Earth is 12,742 km.

Thus the dimension of moon is \frac{1}{4} t h of the dimension of the Earth. Even the diameter of moon is little less than the distance across the United States as the distance across United States is 4509 km.

Here is the answer of the given problem above.
Use this formula: <span>P = FV = ma*at = ma^2 t
</span><span>Substitute the values, and therefore, we got m(a0)^2t = m(x)^2 (2t)
then, solve for x which is the acceleration at 2t.

Question 8
viktelen [127]

Answer: D(t) = 8.e^{-0.4t}.cos(\frac{\pi }{6}.t )

Explanation: A harmonic motion of a spring can be modeled by a sinusoidal function, which, in general, is of the form:

y = a.sin(\omega.t) or y = a.cos(\omega.t)

where:

|a| is initil displacement

\frac{2.\pi}{\omega} is period

For a Damped Harmonic Motion, i.e., when the spring doesn't bounce up and down forever, equations for displacement is:

y=a.e^{-ct}.cos(\omega.t) or y=a.e^{-ct}.sin(\omega.t)

For this question in particular, initial displacement is maximum at 8cm, so it is used the cosine function:

y=a.e^{-ct}.cos(\omega.t)

period = \frac{2.\pi}{\omega}

12 = \frac{2.\pi}{\omega}

ω = \frac{\pi}{6}

Replacing values:

D(t)=8.e^{-0.4t}.cos(\frac{\pi}{6} .t)

The equation of displacement, D(t), of a spring with damping factor is D(t)=8.e^{-0.4t}.cos(\frac{\pi}{6} .t).
