A 0.750kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.5N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit
vazorg [7]

Answer:

A)A=0.075 m

B)v= 0.21 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.75 kg

K= 13.5 N

The natural frequency of the block given as

\omega =\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}

The maximum speed v given as

v=\omega A

A=Amplitude

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times A

0.32=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times A

A=0.075 m

A= 0.75 cm

The speed at distance x

v=\omega \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times \sqrt{0.075^2-(0.075\times 0.75)^2}

v= 0.21 m/s

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds
