In a control system, an accelerometer consists of a 4.70-g object sliding on a calibrated horizontal rail. A low-mass spring att

aches the object to a flange at one end of the rail. Grease on the rail makes static friction negligible, but rapidly damps out vibrations of the sliding object. When subject to a steady acceleration of 0.800g, the object should be at a location 0.500 cm away from its equilibrium position. Find the force constant of the spring required for the calibration to be correct.

Answer:

7.37 N/m

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object = 4.70 g = 0.0047 kg

acceleration = 0.800 g = 0.800 × 9.81 = 7.848 m/s²

Displacement = 0.500 cm = 0.005 m

Now,

Force by the object = Mass × Acceleration

= 0.0047 × 7.848

= 0.0368856 N

and,

Force by the spring = kx

where, x is the displacement

k is the spring constant

thus,

0.0368856 = k × 0.005

or

k = 7.37 N/m

V o - initial velocity
v = velocity at the maximum height,
v² = v o² - 2 g h
v = 0
0 = v o² - 2 g h
v o² = 2 g h = 2 · 9.80 · 0.460
v o² = 9.052
v o = √9.052 = 3.004197 m/s ≈ 3 m/s

Feel better and develop communication skills

It's not only the physical well-being that has developed as well as intellectual and emotional aspect of an individual. When having conversation to someone and you are doing something  it's also the same of having a multitask work. That all senses response quickly and something is developing in you, at same time you are establishing good rapport towards others.

A fire engine is moving south at 35 m/s while blowing its siren at a frequency of 400 Hz.
vodomira [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as

f_d= f_s \frac{(v+v_d)}{(v-v_s)}

Here,

f_d=frequency received by detector

f_s=frequency of wave emitted by source

v_d=velocity of detector

v_s=velocity of source

v=velocity of sound wave

Replacing we have that,

f_d = 400(\frac{(343+18)}{(343-35)})

f_d=422 Hz

Therefore the frequencty that will hear the passengers is 422Hz

How are electrical signals transmitted over long distances?
forsale [732]

Answer:

Over such small distances, digital data may be transmitted as direct, two-level electrical signals over simple copper conductors. This results from the electrical distortion of signals traveling through long conductors, and from noise added to the signal as it propagates through a transmission medium.
