Two systems are in oscillation: a simple pendulum swinging back and forth through a very small angle and a block oscillating on

a spring. The block-spring system takes twice as much time as the pendulum to complete one oscillation. What could be done to make the two systems oscillate with the same period

Answer:

Here to make the two systems oscillate with same period either decrease the mass of the block system to one fourth or increase the length of the string to four times

Explanation:

we know that time period of block spring system is  2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

   where m = mass of the block

              k= spring constant

      and also time period of simple pendulum making small oscillations  is 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

      where l = length of the pendulum    

                 g = acceleration due to gravity

   so here to make time period of the both systems to be same either we can decrease the block system time period to its half or double the time period of the pendulum.

 To decrease the time period of block spring system to half its value from above equation we need to decrease the mass of the block to one fourth

 and to increase the time period of the pendulum we need to increase length by four times .

A car of mass 2400kg moving at 20 m/s slams into a cement wall and comes to a halt?
Brut [27]

Impulse = change in momentum

The car's momentum was (mass) x (speed)

Momentum = (2400 kg) x (20 m/s)

Momentum = 48,000 km-m/s

To completely stop the car, the impulse = -48,000 km-m/s .

1. A student lifts a box of books that weighs 185 N. The box is
aksik [14]

1)  148 J

When lifting an object, the work done on the object is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy. Mathematically:

W = \Delta U = (mg) \Delta h

where

mg is the weight of the object

\Delta h is the change in height

For the box in this problem,

mg = 185 N

\Delta h = 0.800 m

Substituting into the equation, we find:

W=(185)(0.800)=148 J

2) (a) 28875 J

The work done by a force applied parallel to the direction of motion of the object is given by

W=Fd

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

In this problem,

F = 825 N is the force applied by the two students together

d = 35 m is the displacement of the car

Substituting,

W=(825)(35)=28875 J

2) (b) 57750 J

As seen previously, the equation that gives the work done by the force is

W=Fd

We see that the work done is proportional to the magnitude of the force: therefore, if the force is doubled, then the work done is also doubled.

The work done previously was

W = 28875 J

Now the force is doubled, so the new work done will be

W' = 2(28875)=57750 J

3) 4.4 J

In this case, the force acting on the ball is the force of gravity, whose magnitude is:

F = mg

where

m = 0.180 kg is the mass of the ball

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving the equation,

F=(0.180)(9.8)=1.76 N

Now we find the work done by gravity using the same formula applied before:

W=Fd

where d = 2.5 m is the displacement of the ball. We can apply this version of the formula since the force is parallel to the displacement. Substituting,

W=(1.76)(2.5)=4.4 J

4) 595.2 kg

In this case, we have the work done on the box:

W = 7.0 kJ = 7000 J

And we also know the change in height of the box:

\Delta h = 1.2 m

As we stated in part a), the work done on the box is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

W=mg \Delta h

Solving for m, we find

m=\frac{W}{g \Delta h}

And substituting the numerical values, we find the mass of the box:

m=\frac{7000}{(9.8)(1.2)}=595.2 kg

5) They do the same work

In fact, the net work done by each person on the box is equal to the change in gravitational potential energy of the box:

W=mg \Delta h

Where \Delta h is the difference in height between the final position and the initial position of the box.

This means that the work done on the box depends only on its initial and final position, not on the path taken. The two men carry the box along different paths, however the reach at the end the same position, and they started from the same position: this means that the value of \Delta h is the same for both of them, so the work they have done is exactly the same.

What is the state of y when y = k/x, x is halved.
tangare [24]

Answer:

y becomes doubled.

Explanation:

If;

       y  = \frac{k}{x}  

what is the state of y when x is halved;

  the given expression is an inverse relationship. When y increases, x is supposed to decrease and vice versa.

 

 if x is halved; x  = \frac{x}{2}

           \frac{k}{\frac{x}{2} }   = \frac{2k}{x}  

Now compare :

      \frac{k}{x}  :  \frac{2k}{x}

we see that y becomes doubled

A horizontal air diffuser operates with inlet velocity and specific enthalpy of 250 m/s and 270.11 kj/kg, repectively, and exit
Ivahew [28]

Answer: c) 90 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Invest velocity, v1 = 250 m/s

Inlet specific enthalpy, h1 = 270.11 kJ/kg = 270110 J/kg

Outlet specific enthalpy, h2 = 297.31 kJ/kg = 297310 J/kg

Outlet velocity, v2 = ?

0 = Q(cv) - W(cv) + m[(h1 - h2) + 1/2(v1² - v2²) + g(z1 - z2)]

0 = Q(cv) + m[(h1 - h2) + 1/2(v1² - v2²)]

0 = [(h1 - h2) + 1/2(v1² - v2²)]

Substituting the values of the above, we get

0 = [(270110 - 297310) + 1/2 ( 250² - v²)

0 = [-27200 + 1/2 (62500 - v²)]

27200 = 1/2 (62500 - v²)

54400 = 62500 - v²

v² = 62500 - 54400

v² = 8100

v = √8100

v = 90 m/s
