Exercise 2.4.5: Suppose we add possible friction to Exercise 2.4.4. Further, suppose you do not know the spring constant, but yo

u have two reference weights 1 kg and 2 kg to calibrate your setup. You put each in motion on your spring and measure the frequency. For the 1 kg weight you measured 1.1 Hz, for the 2 kg weight you measured 0.8 Hz. a) Find k (spring constant) and c (damping constant). Find a formula for the mass in terms of the frequency in Hz. Note that there may be more than one possible mass for a given frequency. b) For an unknown object you measured 0.2 Hz, what is the mass of the object? Suppose that you know that the mass of the unknown object is more than a kilogram.

Answer:

a) k = 95.54 N / m, c = 19.55 , b) m₃ = 0.9078 kg

Explanation:

In a simple harmonic movement with friction, we can assume that this is provided by the speed

fr = -c v

when solving the system the angular value remains

w² = w₀² + (c / 2m)²

They give two conditions

1) m₁ = 1 kg

f₁ = 1.1 Hz

the angular velocity is related to frequency

w = 2π f₁

Let's find the angular velocity without friction is

w₂ = k / m₁

we substitute

(2π f₁)² = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

2) m₂ = 2 kg

f₂ = 0.8 Hz

(2π f₂)² = k / m₂ + (c / 2m₂)²

we have a system of two equations with two unknowns, so we can solve it

we solve (c / 2m)² is we equalize the expression

(2π f₁)² - k / m₁ = (2π f₂²) 2 - k / m₁

k (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁) = 4π² (f₂² - f₁²)

k = 4π² (f₂² -f₁²) / (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁)

a) Let's calculate

k = 4 π² (0.8² -1.1²) / (½ -1/1)

k = 39.4784 (1.21) / (-0.5)

k = 95.54 N / m

now we can find the constant of friction

(2π f₁) 2 = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

c2 = ((2π f₁)² - k / m₁) 4m₁²

c2 = (4ππ² f₁² - k / m₁) 4 m₁²

let's calculate

c² = (4π² 1,1² - 95,54 / 1) 4 1²

c² = (47.768885 - 95.54) 8

c² = -382.1689

c = 19.55

b) f₃ = 0.2 Hz

m₃ =?

(2πf₃)² = k / m₃ + (c / 2m₃) 2

we substitute the values

(4π² 0.2²) = 95.54 / m₃ + 382.1689 2/4 m₃²

1.579 = 95.54 / m₃ + 95.542225 / m₃²

let's call

x = 1 / m₃

x² = 1 / m₃²

- 1.579 + 95.54 x + 95.542225 x² = 0

60.5080 x² + 60.5080 x -1 = 0

x² + x - 1.65 10⁻² = 0

x = [1 ±√ (1- 4 (-1.65 10⁻²)] / 2

x = [1 ± 1.03] / 2

x₁ = 1.015 kg

x₂ = -0.015 kg

Since the mass must be positive we eliminate the second results

x₁ = 1 / m₃

m₃ = 1 / x₁

m₃ = 1 / 1.1015

The sensor in the torso of a crash test dummy records the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the dummy.If the du

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions

As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.

So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors

so we can say

$F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}$

here given that

$F_1 = 130.0 N$

$F_2 = 4500.0 N$

now we will plug in all data in the above equation

$F_{net} = \sqrt{4500^2 + 130^}$

$F_{net} = 4501.9 N$

so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor

A bulb converts 9J of energy in each second from an input of 100J of energy. Calculate efficiency of this light bulb

77julia77 [94]

Efficiency is calculated through dividing the actual mechanical advantage by the hypothetical mechanical advantage:

- the actual mechanical advantage is 9J because that's how much work the light bulb doing

- the hypo. mechanical advantage is 100J. Ideally, in a perfect world, the light bulb can convert 100J input into 100J output, but do to resistance and other factors it is not possible.

$\frac{9}{100} = .09$
change the decimal to a percentage:

$.09 = 9\%$
the light bulb had 9% efficiency

An airplane flies horizontally at constant speed in a straightline direction. Its state of motion is unchanging. In other words

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO

So both forces must be of same magnitude

Explanation:

As we know that airplane is moving with uniform speed is horizontal plane is a straight line

so the motion of the air plane is uniform without any acceleration

So we will have

$a = 0$

acceleration must be zero

now by Newton's law

$F_{net} = 0$

$F_1 + F_2 = 0$

so sum of all forces on the air plane must be ZERO

Smaller mammals use proportionately more energy than larger mammals; that is, it takes more energy per gram to power a mouse tha

timama [110]

Answer:

10,200 Cal. per day

Explanation:

The mouse consumes 3.0 Cal each day, and has a mass of 20 grams. We can use this data to obtain a ratio of energy consumption per mass

$\frac{3.0 \ Cal}{20 g} = 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g}$ .

For the human, we need to convert the 68 kilograms to grams. We can do this with a conversion factor. We know that:

$1 \ kg = 1000 \ g$ ,

Now, we can divide by 1 kg on each side

$\frac{1 \ kg}{1 \ kg} = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}$ ,

$1 = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}$ .

Using this conversion factor, we can obtain the mass of the human in grams, instead of kilograms. First, lets take:

$mass_{human} = 68 \ kg$

We can multiply this mass for the conversion factor, we are allowed to do this, cause the conversion factor equals 1, and its adimensional

$mass_{human} = 68 \ kg * \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}$

$mass_{human} = 68,000 g$

Now that we know the mass of the human on grams, we can multiply for our ratio of energy consumption

$68,000 \ g * 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g} = 10,200 \ Cal$

So, we would need 10,200 Cal per day.
