A block with a mass of 0.400 kg is connected to a spring, displaced in the positive direction a distance of 50.0 cm from equilib

rium, and released from rest at t = 0. The block then oscillates without friction on a horizontal surface. After being released, the first time the block is a distance of 25.0 cm from equilibrium is at t = 0.200 s.
(a) What is the block's period of oscillation?

(b) What is the the value of the spring constant?

Answer:

a)  T = 1,199 s b)  k = 11.0 N / m

Explanation:

The oscillatory movement of a mass-spring system is described by the equation

    x (t) = A cos (w t)

Where A is the amplitude of the movement. W is the angular velocity, which is given by

    w = √ k / m

The amplitude of the system is the maximum elongation that the spring has before releasing it, in this case it is A = 50 cm = 0.50 m, the equation is

     x = 0.50 cos (wt)

We can calculate the angular velocity with the point given by x = 0.250 m for t = 0.200s

     w t = cos⁻¹ (x / A)

     w = 1 / t cos⁻¹ (x / A)

     w = 1/0.200  cos⁻¹(0.25 / 0.50)

Let's be careful because the angle is in radians

     w = 5.24 rad / s

Angular velocity is

    w = 2 π f = 2π / T

    T = 2π / w

    T = 2π / 5.24

    T = 1,199 s

With the angular velocity equation we can take off the spring constant

    w² = k / m

    k = m w²

    k = 0.400 5.24²

    k = 11.0 N / m

A box slides down a frictionless plane inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal. The gravitational force on the box is direct
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

D) Vertically.

Explanation:

A free body diagram is used to represent all the forces acting in a body. forces like, the force of gravity as a result of the gravitational interaction between the object and the Earth (W), the frictional force opposite to the movement of the object (F_{r}), the normal force due to the plane and the object (N) and the force applied to start the movement in a particular direction (F).

As is show in the free body diagram of the system, W, which is the weight of the body as a consequence of the gravitational force, is at an angle \theta below the inclined plane. that angle between the plane and the x axis is the same that the one of the inclined plane with respect to the horizontal, Since its sides are perpendicular.  

Notice how W goes always in the direction to the center of mass of Earth in a vertical path (For comparison see figure (a) and (b)).

sammy [17]

Answer:

1)  Q ’= 8 Q ,  2)    q ’= 16 q ,  3)   r ’= ¾ r

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Coulomb's law

      F = k q Q / r²

It asks us to calculate the change of any of the parameters so that the force is always F

Original values

                q, Q, r

Scenario 1

      q ’= 2q

       r ’= 4r

     F = k q ’Q’ / r’²

we substitute

     F = k 2q Q ’/ (4r)²

     F = k 2q Q '/ 16r²

we substitute the value of F

      k q Q / r² = k q Q '/ 8r²

       Q ’= 8 Q

Scenario 2

       Q ’= Q

       r ’= 4r

we substitute

      F = k q ’Q / 16r²

      k q Q / r² = k q’ Q / 16 r²

      q ’= 16 q

Scenario 3

      q ’= 3/2 q

      Q ’= ⅜ Q

we substitute

        k q Q r² = k (3/2 q) (⅜ Q) / r’²

        r’² = 9/16 r²

        r ’= ¾ r
