A horizontal spring is attached to a wall at one end and a mass at the other. The mass rests on a frictionless surface. You pull

the mass, stretching the spring beyond the equilibrium position a distance A, and release it from rest. The mass then begins to oscillate in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A. During one period, the mass spends part of the time in regions where the magnitude of its displacement from equilibrium is greater than (0.30)A— that is, when its position is between −A and (−0.30)A, and when its position is between (0.30)A and A. What total percentage of the period does the mass lie in these regions?

Answer:

 Δt'/ T% = 90.3%

Explanation:

Simple harmonic movement is described by the expression

         x = A cos (wt)

we find the time for the two points of motion

x = - 0.3 A

        -0.3 A = A cos (w t₁)

         w t₁ = cos -1 (-0.3)

         

remember that angles are in radians

        w t₁ = 1.875 rad

x = 0.3 A

        0.3 A = A cos w t₂

        w t₂ = cos -1 (0.3)

         w t₂ = 1,266 rad

         

Now let's calculate the time of a complete period

x= -A

        w t₃ = cos⁻¹ (-1)

        w t₃ = π rad

this angle for the forward movement and the same time for the return movement in the oscillation to the same point, which is the definition of period

         T = 2 t₃

         T = 2π / w     s

now we can calculate the fraction of time in the given time interval

        Δt / T = (t₁ -t₂) / T

        Δt / T = (1,875 - 1,266) / 2pi

        Δt / T = 0.0969

 

This is the fraction for when the mass is from 0 to 0.3, for regions of oscillation of greater amplitude the fraction is

         Δt'/ T = 1 - 0.0969

         Δt '/ T = 0.903

         Δt'/ T% = 90.3%

According to Newton's<br> Ist law, what will an<br> object in motion tend<br> to do?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

According to <em>Newton's first law of motion:</em>

<u>An object in motion tends to remain in motion unless an external force acts upon it.</u>

<u>It stays in motion with the same speed and goes in the same direction.</u>

<u></u>

The resistivity of gold is at room temperature. A gold wire that is 0.9 mm in diameter and 14 cm long carries a current of 940 m
IgorC [24]

Answer:

0.0360531138247 V/m

Explanation:

\rho = Resistivity of gold = 2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega .m (General value)

I = Current = 940 mA

d = Diameter = 0.9 mm

A = Area = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

E = Electric field

Resistivity is given by

\rho=\dfrac{EA}{I}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{\rho I}{A}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 940\times 10^{-3}}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.9\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow E=0.0360531138247\ V/m

The  electric field in the wire is 0.0360531138247 V/m

Find the Acceleration of a car with the mass of 1200kg and a force of 11x10^3 N
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

<h2>9.17 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{11 \times  {10}^{3} }{1200}  \\  = 9.16666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>9.17 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
