A brick of mass 4 kg hangs from the end of a spring. When the brick is at rest, the spring is stretched by 3 cm. The spring is t

hen stretched an additional 2 cm and released. Assume there is no air resistance. Note that the acceleration due to gravity, g, is g = 980 cm/s2. Set up a differential equation with initial conditions describing the motion and solve it for the displacement s(t) of the mass from its equilibrium position (with the spring stretched 3 cm). s(t) = cm(Note that your answer should measure t in seconds and s in centimeters.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In this system we have the force of the spring and the gravitational force. The equation that describes that is

F_{s}+F{g}=ma\\k(y_0+y)-mg=ma

where y0 is the equilibrium position when the string is free and y0+y is the new equilibrium position when the object is hanged of the string. By replacing by derivatives we have

ky_0+ky-mg=ma\\mg+ky-mg=ky=ma\\\\ky=m\frac{d^2y}{dt^2}\\\\my''+ky=0

the solution for this differential equation is (by using the characterisic polynomial)

y(x)=Acos(kt)+Bsin(kt)\\k=\omega^2m

hope this helps!!

Answer:

A) d²x/dt² = -326.67x

At time t = 0,the spring is stretched to 5cm and and released.

Thus, the initial velocity is zero. Thus, the initial condition is;

x(0) = -5 and x'(0) = 0

B) The solution to the equation is;

x(t) = -5cos 18.07t

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Due to stretching, the force due to gravity and that due to stretching of spring will be the same. Thus;

mg = -kx

m = 4kg ; x = -3cm and g=980 cm/s²

Thus,

k = mg/x = 4x980/3 = 1306.67

The motion of mass attached to a spring is given as;

d²x/dt² = -ω²x

Where, ω² = k/m = 1306.67/4 = 326.67

Thus, the differential equation for the problem would be;

d²x/dt² = -326.67x

At time t = 0,the spring is stretched to 5cm and and released.

Thus, the initial velocity is zero. Thus, the initial condition is;

x(0) = -5 and x'(0) = 0

B) The general solution would be given by;

x(t) = C1cos ωt + C2sinωt

From earlier, ω² = 326.67

So, ω = √326.67 = 18.07

Thus,

x(t) = C1cos 18.07t + C2sin 18.07t

Now, applying initial conditions ;

At x(0) = -5;

-5 = C1cos 0 + C2sin 0

C1 = -5

x'(t) = -18.07C1Sin18.07t + 18.07C2Cos18.08t

Thus, at x'(0) = 0

0 = -18.07C1Sin 0 + 18.07C2Cos0

18.07C2 = 0

So,C2 = 0

Thus,the solution to the equation is;

x(t) = -5cos 18.07t

Name the property the equation illustrates. 8 + 5.3 = 5.3 + 8
VMariaS [17]
The answer to the question is letter "D. Commutative Property of Addition". The property states that if there are two numbers which we may represent by a and b, the value of a + b is equal to the value of b + a. The given, 8 + 5.3 = 5.3 + 8 is an example of this property.

Which statement is NOT true about the ratio of the leg lengths of increment ΔLRM and increment ΔJSK?
Alona [7]
Given the similar triangles, it can always be noted that similarity can be derived from the proportionality of the leg lengths, however it is not true the the ratio of the proportion of the leg lengths is equal to the slope of the triangles. Thus the false statement is:

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

21 & 22

42.25 ÷ 2 = 21.125.

21.125 rounded to the two nearest whole numbers is 21 and 22.

21 and 22 are the closest integers to 21.125.

The answer is 21 and 22.

Hope it helps!
