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

Which are characteristics of electromagnetic waves?check all that apply.
emmainna [20.7K]

Correct choices are marked in bold:

travel in straight lines and can bounce off surfaces  --> TRUE, normally electromagnetic waves travel in straight lines, however they can be reflected by objects, bouncing off their surfaces

travel through space at the speed of light  --> TRUE, all electromagnetic waves in space (vacuum) travel at the speed of light, c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s)

travel only through matter  --> FALSE; electromagnetic waves can also travel through vacuum

travel only through space  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves can also travel through matter

can bend around objects  --> TRUE, this is what happens for instance when diffraction occurs: electromagnetic waves are bended around obstacles or small slits

move by particles bumping into each other  --> FALSE, electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, so no particles are involved

move by the interaction between an electric field and a magnetic field --> TRUE, electromagnetic waves consist of an electric field and a magnetic field oscillating in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave

A block of 250-mm length and 54 × 40-mm cross section is to support a centric compressive load P. The material to be used is a b
musickatia [10]

Answer:

P = 17.28*10⁶ N

Explanation:

Given

L = 250 mm = 0.25 m

a = 0.54 m

b = 0.40 m

E = 95 GPa = 95*10⁹ Pa

σmax = 80 MPa = 80*10⁶ Pa

ΔL = 0.12%*L = 0.0012*0.25 m = 3*10⁻⁴ m

We get A as follows:

A = a*b = (0.54 m)*(0.40 m) = 0.216 m²

then, we apply the formula

ΔL = P*L/(A*E)  ⇒ P = ΔL*A*E/L

⇒  P = (3*10⁻⁴ m)*(0.216 m²)*(95*10⁹ Pa)/(0.25 m)

⇒  P = 24624000  N = 24.624*10⁶ N

Now we can use the equation

σ = P/A

⇒  σ = (24624000  N)/(0.216 m²) = 114000000 Pa = 114 MPa > 80 MPa

So σ > σmax  we use σmax

⇒  P = σmax*A = (80*10⁶ Pa)*(0.216 m²) = 17280000 N = 17.28*10⁶ N

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}

Explanation:

The acceleration of a circular motion is given by

a = \omega^2 R

where \omega is the angular velocity and R is the radius.

Angular velocity is related to the period, T, by

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}

Substitute into the previous formula.

a = (\dfrac{2\pi}{T})^2 R

a = \dfrac{4\pi^2R}{T^2}

This acceleration does not depend on the linear or angular displacement. Hence, the amount of rotation does not change it.

Positive electric charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere with radius R.From the express
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Vb = k Q / r        r <R

Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²)    r >R

Explanation:

The electic potential is defined by

             ΔV = - ∫ E .ds

We calculate the potential in the line of the electric pipe, therefore the scalar product reduces the algebraic product

             VB - VA = - ∫ E dr

Let's substitute every equation they give us and we find out

r> R

           Va = - ∫ (k Q / r²) dr

           -Va = - k Q (- 1 / r)

We evaluate with it Va = 0 for r = infinity

          Vb = k Q / r        r <R

         

We perform the calculation of the power with the expression of the electric field that they give us

           Vb = - int (kQ / R3 r) dr

  We integrate and evaluate from the starting point r = R to the final point r <R

         Vb = ∫kq / R³ r dr

         Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²)

This is the electric field in the whole space, the places of interest are r = 0, r = R and r = infinity
