Find the acceleration produced.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

0.67m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of toy = 1.2kg

Force applied = 0.8N

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law of motion;

Force = mass x acceleration

Now,

Acceleration = $\frac{Force}{mass}$

Acceleration = $\frac{0.8}{1.2}$ = 0.67m/s²

A force in the +x -direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 7.90 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal

dsp73

Answer:

$v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The equation of equlibrium for the box is:

$\Sigma F_{x} = 18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x = (7.90\,kg)\cdot a$

The formula for the acceleration, given in $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , is:

$a = \frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg}$

Velocity can be derived from the following definition of acceleration:

$a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}$

$v\, dv = a\, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {\frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg} } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} =\frac{18\,N}{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m}\, dx - \frac{0.530\,\frac{N}{m} }{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {x} \, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = (2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}$

$v =\sqrt{2\cdot[(2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}] }$

The speed after the box has travelled 17 meters is:

$v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}$

When you push a child on a swing, your action is most effective when your pushes are timed to coincide with the natural frequenc

OleMash [197]

Answer:

$T = 4.48 s$

we can see that this time period is independent of the mass of the child so answer would be same if the child mass is different

Explanation:

Natural frequency of a simple pendulum of L length is given as

$f = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}$

so the time period of the oscillation is given as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

so we will have

$L = 5 m$

$T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{5}{9.81}}$

$T = 4.48 s$

also from above formula we can see that this time period is independent of the mass of the child so answer would be same if the child mass is different
