Vibration of an object about an equilibrium point is called simple harmonic motion when the restoring force is

Physics

den301095 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Displacement

Explanation:

An object exhibiting simple harmonic motion, the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the object. The direction of direction of the force is in opposite direction of the displacement. It is given by :

F=-kx

k is the spring or force constant

x is the displacement

So, the correct option is (b) "displacement".

A train whistle is heard at 300 Hz as the train approaches town. The train cuts its speed in half as it nears the station, and t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of the train using the Doppler equation:

f = f_{0}\frac{v + v_{o}}{v - v_{s}}        

Where:

f₀: is the emitted frequency

f: is the frequency heard by the observer  

v: is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

v_{o}: is the speed of the observer = 0 (it is heard in the town)

v_{s}: is the speed of the source =?

The frequency of the train before slowing down is given by:

f_{b} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}  (1)                  

Now, the frequency of the train after slowing down is:

f_{a} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}   (2)  

Dividing equation (1) by (2) we have:

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}}{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}}

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - v_{s_{b}}}   (3)  

Also, we know that the speed of the train when it is slowing down is half the initial speed so:

v_{s_{b}} = 2v_{s_{a}}     (4)

Now, by entering equation (4) into (3) we have:

\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - 2v_{s_{a}}}  

\frac{300 Hz}{290 Hz} = \frac{343 m/s - v_{s_{a}}}{343 m/s - 2v_{s_{a}}}

By solving the above equation for v_{s_{a}} we can find the speed of the train after slowing down:

v_{s_{a}} = 11.06 m/s

Finally, the speed of the train before slowing down is:

v_{s_{b}} = 11.06 m/s*2 = 22.12 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.                        

I hope it helps you!

Un diapasón vibra a 140 [Hz] y la onda emitida por él se propaga con una rapidez de 340 m/s.Considerando lo anterior, se puede a
Gnom [1K]

The question is: A tuning fork vibrates at 140 [Hz] and the wave emitted by it propagates with a speed of 340 m / s. Considering the above, it can be correctly stated that the wavelength of the wave emitted by the tuning fork is

Answer: Wavelength of the wave emitted by the tuning fork is 2.43 m.

Explanation:

Given: Frequency = 140 Hz

Speed = 340 m/s

wavelength = ?

Formula used to calculate the wavelength is as follows.

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

where,

\lambda = wavelength

v = speed

f = frequency

Substitute the values into above formula.

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\\= \frac{340 m/s}{140 Hz}  (1 Hz = 1 s^{-1})\\= 2.43 m

Thus, we can conclude that wavelength of the wave emitted by the tuning fork is 2.43 m.

A toy plane is flying in a horizontal circle by being attached to a 0.75 meter string. The plane has a mass of 101.7 grams and m
nadezda [96]

Answer:

F = 2,894 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

      F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

     a = v² / r

Angular and linear variables are related.

     v = w r

Let's replace

     F = m w² r

The radius r and the length of the rope is related

    cos is = r / L

    r = L cos tea

Let's replace

    F = m w² L cos θ

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     m = 101.7 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.1017 kg

      θ = 5 rev (2π rad / rev) = 31,416 rad

     w =  θ / t

     w = 31.416 / 5.1

     w = 6.16 rad / s

     F = 0.1017 6.16² 0.75 cos  θ

     F = 2,894 cos  θ

The maximum value of F is for  θ equal to zero

     F = 2,894 N
