A mass is oscillating on the end of a spring. The distance, y, of the mass from its equilibrium point is given by the formula y=

4zcos(8πwt) where y is in centimeters, t is time in seconds, and z and w are positive constants.
a. What is the furthest distance of the mass from its equilibrium point?
b. How many oscillations are completed in 1 second?

Answer:

(a.) 4z

(b.) 4w

Explanation:

From the equation y=4zcos(8πwt), where z and w are positive constants.

Comparing this equation to the equation of a wave y = Acos(Wt), where A is the amplitude (largest distance from equilibrium) and W is the angular frequency (W=2πf)

(a.) Comparing our wave equation with the given equation, we see that A = 4z in this case (furthest distance of the mass from equilibrium)

(b.) Comparing similarly we can see from our given equation that angular frequency W =8πw we also know that W = 2πf from our wave equation, therefore 2πf = 8πw

Solving for f we have f = 8πw÷2π

f = 4w (Proves our second answer because the frequency is the number of oscillations completed per second)

What is the equation for solving the displacement?
Scilla [17]

Displacement equals the original velocity multiplied by time plus one half the acceleration multiplied by the square of time. Here is a sample problem and its solution showing the use of this equation: An object is moving with a velocity of 5.0 m/s.. Displacement = (final position) - (initial position) = change in position.

In a circuit, three pieces of wire labeled A, B and C are joined at a common point, D. If wire B carries 1.5 mA in a direction a
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

correct option is a. 0.2 mA toward D

Explanation:

given data

B carries = 1.5 mA

C carries current  = 1.3 mA

solution

we take positive direction of current going away from the point D

and negative direction of current coming towards point D

so we use here kirchoff's current law   that is

iA + iB + iC = 0    ......................1

iA + 1.5 + (-1.3) = 0

iA = - 0.2 mA  

so that current in wire A is 0.2 mA towards point D

correct option is a. 0.2 mA toward D

What force must the worker exert to get the box moving &amp; what force must the worker exert to accelerate the box at 0.1 meter
photoshop1234 [79]

Since static friction is the minimum force required to just start the motion of a stationary object.

Here if we need to start an object from rest then we required F = 700 N

So for the first part of the above problem Force will be F = 700 N

Now if the box is already moving then we will have to use kinetic friction force between box and floor

now we can write the equation of net force as

F - F_k = m*a

here

F_k = kinetic friction = 220 N

m = mass = 500 kg

a = acceleration = 0.1 m/s^2

now we will have

F - 220 = 500* 0.1

F = 220 + 50 = 270 N
