A water tower is idealized as a mass M on top of a uniform and massless beam. The bottom end of the beam is fixed to the ground.

The beam has solid circular cross section with a diameter of 1.2 m. Its Young’s modulus is 30 GPa, and its length is 10 m. The mass M is 20 tons. Find the natural frequency and natural period of this system in lateral oscillations.

Answer:

Natural frequency=21.40 Hz

Time= 0.2936 seconds

Explanation:

Idealizing the question as a cantilever beam with point load of mass M as 20 tons

Lateral stiffness, k=\frac {3EI}{l^{3}} where l is length given as 10 m, E is Young’s modulus given as 30GPa and I is inertia where for a circular cross-section is given by \frac {\pi d^{4}}{64}

k=\frac {3*(30*10^{9})*(\pi *1.2^{4})}{64*10^{3}}= 9160884.178

k= 9.160884178*10^{6}

To find the frequency, w_{n}, the mass m is given as 20 tons or 20000 Kg

w_{n}=\sqrt (\frac {k}{m})= \sqrt (\frac {9.160884178*10^{6}}{20000})=21.40196741 Hz

Natural frequency=21.40 Hz

Time period,

T=\frac {2\pi}{w_{n}}=\frac {2\pi}{21.40196741}=0.2935798 seconds

T=0.2936 seconds

A satellite in orbit is not truly traveling through a vacuum.It is moving through very, very thin air. Does the resulting airfri
defon

PART A) Yes, the fact that there is a frictional force acting on the satellite generates a loss of energy due to friction. What causes satellite to diminish its orbit during its tour. In fact, many satellites have rectifier systems that allow them to position themselves and remain in their orbit for a long time to avoid being trapped by the Earth's gravity Force and fall into the atmosphere where they would probably be torn apart.

PART B) As a similarity, one could start by mentioning the structure of the two equations are similar and have their own constants who were responsible for supporting them. While the law of gravity speaks of the masses of the bodies the electrostatic law speaks of the charges of the bodies. For both the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

However, the most notable difference between them is basically their statement. While one of the equations speaks about greavedad the other reflects the electromagnetic phenomena. It should be noted that the force of gravity is much weaker than the electromagnetic force and that the latter has the capacity of attraction and repulsion. While the gravitational force only that of attraction.

One type of potential energy is gravitational potential energy. What is necessary for an object to have gravitational potential
galben [10]

Answer:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. Since the force required to lift it is equal to its weight, it follows that the gravitational potential energy is equal to its weight times the height to which it is lifted.

Why is the nucleus of an atom dense​
Inessa [10]

Explanation:

The nucleus of an atom is dense because it contains more of particles in a very little space.

The nucleus is the center of an atom made up of the protons and neutrons.

Atomic nucleus is very small compared to the size of the atom.

 Density is function of mass and volume.

Mass is the amount of matter in a substance.

Volume is the space occupied by a substance.

    The more the mass the more the density.

Since protons and neutron are massive bodies occupying a small space, they make the nucleus very dense.
