A 265 g mass attached to a horizontal spring oscillates at a frequency of 3.40 Hz . At t =0s, the mass is at x= 6.20 cm and has
1 answer:
Answer:
The phase constant is 7.25 degree
Explanation:
given data
mass = 265 g
frequency = 3.40 Hz
time t = 0 s
x = 6.20 cm
vx = - 35.0 cm/s
solution
as phase constant is express as
y = A cosФ ..............1
here A is amplitude that is = =
= 6.25 cm
put value in equation 1
6.20 = 6.25 cosФ
cosФ = 0.992
Ф = 7.25 degree
so the phase constant is 7.25 degree

Answer:
(a) The average speed is 0.85 milles/minute
(b) The average velocity is zero
Explanation:
In order to answer part (a) and (b) you have to apply the formulas for average speed and average velocity which are:
<em>-Average speed formula:</em>
where d is the total distance traveled and t is the tota time
Replacing the given values:
milles/minute
Notice that you have to replace the total distance, which is 14 milles for the go plus 14 milles for the return. The same for the total time.
<em>-Average velocity formula:</em>
V = Δx/Δt
Where V is the velocity vector, Δx is the displacement and Δt is the change in time
V=
Where X2 is the final position and X1 is the initial position
In this case X1= 0 i and X2=0 i (i is the unit vector in the x direction). So, the displacement is zero.
Therefore, the average velocity is:
V= 0 i [milles/minute]
Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b) and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:
c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is . Then
Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
