A spring attached to the ceiling is stretched 2.45 meters by a four kilogram mass. If the mass is set in motion in a medium that

imparts a damping force numerically equal to 16 times the velocity, the correct differential equation for the position x (t ), of the mass at a function of time, t is

Answer:

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x is the required differential equation.

Explanation:

Since the spring force F = kx where k is the spring constant and x its extension = 2.45 equals the weight of the 4 kg mass,

F = mg

kx = mg

k = mg/x

= 4 kg × 9.8 m/s²/2.45 m

= 39.2 kgm/s²/2.45 m

= 16 N/m

Now the drag force f = 16v where v is the velocity of the mass.

We now write an equation of motion for the forces on the mass. So,

F + f = ma (since both the drag force and spring force are in the same direction)where a = the acceleration of the mass

-kx - 16v = 4a

-16x - 16v = 4a

16x + 16v = -4a

4x + 4v = -a where v = dx/dt and a = d²x/dt²

4x + 4dx/dt = -d²x/dt²

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x which is the required differential equation

I WILL MARK YOU THE BRAINLIEST
mr Goodwill [35]

Explanation:

700N right

to get the net force

you gotta let one direction be the negative ( the smaller force)

so the total force towards the left is 100N ( 60 + 40= 100)

which is smaller than the right force which is 800 N so you let 100 N be negative

so without even calculating , you can know that it will be moving towards the right because right force > left force

your add both forces ( remember 100 N is negative)

so 800N + ( - 100N)

= 700N

towards the right

hope this helps

this is just one method that helped me understand

please mark it brainliest

A golf club rotates 215 degrees and has a length (radius) equal to 29 inches. The time it took to swing the club was 0.8 seconds
vichka [17]

Answer:

The average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is 136.01 inches/second

Explanation:

Given;

length of the club, L = 29 inches

rotation angle, θ = 215⁰

time of motion, t = 0.8 s

The angular speed of the club is calculated as follows;

\omega = (\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi, \ rad) \times \frac{1}{t} \\\\\omega =  (\frac{215}{360} \times 2\pi, \ rad) \times \frac{1}{0.8 \ s} \\\\\omega = 4.69 \ rad/s

The average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is calculated as;

v = ωr

v = 4.69 rad/s  x  29 inches

v = 136.01 inches/second

Therefore, the average linear velocity (inches/second) of the golf club is 136.01 inches/second
