Tresset [83]

Answer:

m = 81281.5 pounds.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 73 kN

Acceleration of the space shuttle, a = 16000 mi/h²

1 miles/h² = 0.0001241 m/s2

16000 mi/h² = 1.98 m/s²

We need to find the mass of the spacecraft.

According to Newton's second law,

F = ma

m is mass of the spacecraft

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{73\times 10^3\ N}{1.98\ m/s^2}\\\\m=36868.68\ kg$

Since, 1 kg = 2.20462 pounds

m = 81281.5 pounds

Hence, the mass of the spacecraft is 81281.5 pounds.

The displacement of a 500 g mass, undergoing simple harmonic motion, is defined by the function :

Delicious77 [7]

The maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion, in physics, repetitive movement back and forth through an equilibrium, or central, position, so that the maximum displacement on one side of this position is equal to the maximum displacement on the other side.

Simple Harmonic Motion

The given equation of the simple harmonic motion is

$x=3.5 sin (\frac{\pi }{2t} + \frac{5\pi }{4} )$

Data;

ω = π/2

k = 1.254N/m

Solving this

$\frac{dx}{dt} = -3.5 X \frac{\pi }{2} cos (\frac{x\pi t}{2}+\frac{5\pi }{4} )$

Let's calculate the maximum velocity.

$V_{m} =\frac{3.5\pi }{2}$

This is only possible when cos θ = -1

The maximum kinetic energy is

$K_m =\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} X \frac{500}{1000} X \frac{7^2\pi ^2}^{4} ^2$

$w^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\k = w^2m\\k = \frac{\pi ^2}{4} X \frac{500}{1000} \\k =1.254 N/m$

Using the value of spring constant, we can find the maximum potential energy.

$P.E =\frac{1}{2} k x^2\\P.E =\frac{1}{2} X 1.234 X 3.5^2 \\P.E = 7.56 J$

The maximum potential energy is 7.56J

The maximum mechanical energy is equal to the sum of maximum potential energy and the maximum kinetic energy.

ME = K.E + P.E

ME = 7.56J

From the calculations above, the maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.
