A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is

then pulled down 6.0 cm and released. If the ball makes 30 oscillations in 20 s, what are its (a) mass and (b) maximum speed?

Answer:

a

   m  = 0.169 \ kg

b

  |v_{max} |=  0.5653 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  spring constant is  k =  14 \ N/m

     The  maximum extension of the spring is  A =  6.0 \ cm  =  0.06 \ m

     The number of oscillation is  n  =  30

      The  time taken is  t  =  20 \ s

Generally the the angular speed of this oscillations is mathematically represented as

           w = \frac{2 \pi}{T}

where T is the period which is mathematically represented as

     T  =  \frac{t}{n}

substituting values

     T  =  \frac{20}{30 }

     T  = 0.667 \ s

Thus  

       w = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 0.667}

       w =  9.421 \ rad/s

this angular speed can also be represented mathematically as

       w =  \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

=>   m  =\frac{k }{w^2}

substituting values

      m  =\frac{ 15 }{(9.421)^2}

      m  = 0.169 \ kg

In SHM (simple harmonic motion )the equation for velocity is  mathematically represented as

        v =  - Awsin (wt)

The  velocity is maximum when  wt = \(90^o) \ or \ 1.5708\ rad

     v_{max} = -  A* w

=>   |v_{max} |=  A* w

=>    |v_{max} |=   0.06 * 9.421

=>   |v_{max} |=  0.5653 \ m/s

How can we define force?
zimovet [89]

Explanation:

A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects. When the interaction ceases, the two objects no longer experience the force.

A steel rod is pulled in tension with a stress that is less than the yield strength. The modulus of elasticity may be calculated
pshichka [43]

Answer:

B. Axial stress divided by axial strain

Explanation:

Elasticity:

It is the tendency of an object to deform along the axis when an opposing force is applied without facing permanent change in shape.

Plasticity:

When an object crosses the elasticity limit, it enters plasticity where the change due to stress is permanent and the object might even break.

Yield strength:

Yield strength is the point of maximum bearable stress that indicates the limit of elasticity.

Our case:

As the stress applied is less than the yield strength, the rod is still in the elasticity state and its modulus can be calculated.

Modulus of Elasticity = Stress along axis/Ratio of change in length to original length

Axial strain is basically the ratio of change in length to original length.

So, Modulus of Elasticity = Axial Stress/ Axial Strain

The fraction of the total radiation that is reflected by any surface is called its _____.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: D. Albedo

Explanation:

The proportion of total light incident on surface that is reflected back is called its albedo. These are typical features of an astronomical body. It is a dimension less quantity and its value ranges from 0 to 1. Light surfaces reflect larger amount of light than dark surfaces. This feature can be clearly seen on planet Mars and the Moon.

Thus, the fraction of the total radiation that is reflected by any surface is called its <u>Albedo.</u>
