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

The correct answer is A. He created a way of naming organisms based on genus and species

Explanation:

Carl Linnaeus created a simple but precise system for naming organisms of any species and kind. This system was known as binomial nomenclature and the names of organisms depend on two main elements: the genus and the species. The first element is a broad category that covers species with a common origin, and the second one is the species, which describes organisms that can reproduce and share many common features including DNA sequence. According to this, the correct answer is A.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer: 9.5%

Explanation:

% deplected= Meject ÷ (Meject+Mleft) ×100%

Mleft=(165 - 146)kg = 19kg

% depleted = 2.0/(2.0 + 19) ×100=9.5%

What force causes weight? How is weight affected as an object moves farther away from the center of the earth?
stich3 [128]

Gravity affects weight of an object

Its weight reduces as it moves away from the center as gravity is strongest near the core and reduces as you move away

Hope this helps C:

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

R=3818Km

Explanation:

Take a look at the picture. Point A is when you start the stopwatch. Then you stand, the planet rotates an angle α and you are standing at point B.

Since you travel 2π radians in 24H, the angle can be calculated as:

\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *t}{24H}  t being expressed in hours.

\alpha =\frac{2*\pi *11.9s*1H/3600s}{24H}=0.000865rad

From the triangle formed by A,B and the center of the planet, we know that:

cos(\alpha )=\frac{r}{r+H}  Solving for r, we get:

r=\frac{H*cos(\alpha) }{1-cos(\alpha) } =3818Km
