A block suspended from a spring is oscillating vertically with a frequency of 4 Hz and an amplitude of 7 cm. A very small rock i

s placed on top of the oscillating block just as it reaches its lowest point. Assume that the rock has no effect on the oscillation. At what distance above the block’s equilibrium position does the rock lose contact with the block? (hint this occurs when the rock’s acceleration equals the value of gravity) What is the speed of the rock when it leaves the block? What is the greatest distance above the block’s equilibrium position reached by the rock? (Let t = 0 be when the rock is placed on the block)

Answer:

v = - 1,715 m / s ,   x = 0.0156 m

Explanation:

This is an oscillatory movement exercise, which is described by the expression

          x = A cos (wt + Ф)

we can assume that the block is released from its maximum elongation, so the phase constant (Ф) is zero

As we are told that the stone does not affect the movement of the spring mass system, the amplitude and angular velocity do not change, in the upward movement the stone is attached to the mass, but in the downward movement the mass has an acceleration greater than g leave the stone behind, let's look for time, for this we use the definition of speed and acceleration

         v = dx / dt

         v = - A w sin wt

          a = - Aw² cos wt

         a = -g

         -g = - Aw² cos wt

          wt = cos⁻¹ (g / Aw²)

          t = 1 / w cos⁻¹ (g / Aw²)

       

angular velocity and frequency are related

        w = 2π f

        w = 2π 4

         w = 8π   rad / s

remember that the angles are in radians

          t = 1 / 8π cos⁻¹ (9.8 / (0.07 64π²))

          t = 0.039789 1.3473

          t = 0.0536 s

let's find the speed for this time

          v = - A w sin wt

          v = - 0.07 8π sin (8π 0.0536)

          v = - 1,715 m / s

the distance is

           x = A cos wt

           x = 0.07 cos (8π 0.0536)

           x = 0.0156 m

Ele is playing with a ball in a bus that moves in a straight line with constant velocity What can you say about the motion of th
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The ball will fall back and land to Elle's hands.

Explanation:

The bus move in a straight line with constant velocity means that there is no change of direction and no acceleration. Inertia can change the direction of the ball and acceleration can change its velocity. Since these two factors is not present in this scenario, the ball only has vertical movement. Thus the ball will land where it was thrown, in Elle's hands.

The visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is often subdivided into the colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blu
Ugo [173]

Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The range in which the light exists is described as the electromagnetic spectrum. The light waves, radio waves, gamma rays,etc that exist in the world is not visible to human eyes. A kind of wave that modifies  magnetic and electric fields is light. Spectroscopy makes use of all the frequencies and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic radiation.

The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen by the human eyes is the visible spectrum. The light waves with the wavelengths of  380 to 740 nm can be sen by the human eyes. Light at the red end of the visible portion has the least energy, lowest frequency, same speed, and longer wavelength compared to the violet end.
