Answer: y = R*sin(2.75*t - δ)

Here δ is just the time offset and for our purposes is pretty irrelevant.  You can in fact set it to zero since we can say we begin timing when the mass crosses equilibrium.  So

y = R*sin(2.75*t)

We want to find a way to use the information "At the equilibrium position, it moves 2.89 m/s."  I am going to use some calculus here since it makes things so much easier.  If you haven't taken calculus yet, most likely your course has given you a formula to use instead.

We know y=0 when t=0, so y is at equilibrium when t=0.  To say it moves 2.89 m/s is then to say that

y'(0) = 2.89.

From here we can differentiate the displacement function, set t=0 and solve for R.  Using the chain rule:

y'(t) = 2.75*R*cos(2.75*t)

y'(0) = 2.75*R

2.75*R = 2.89

R = 1.051

Explanation: Since this is harmonic motion we can assume there is no damping force.  The frequency of the oscillation is given by ω=√(k/m)=√(18.9/2.5)=2.75.  Keep in mind this is angular frequency, i.e. radians per second, not wavelengths per second.

What's the minimum Out PUT WORK<br> required to raise 14,0m3 of water 26.0m?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

3.57 MJ

Explanation:

ASSUMING it's fresh water with density of 1000 kg/m³

W = ΔPE = mgΔh = 14.0(1000)(9.81)(26.0) = 3,570,840 J

Salt water would require more.

A skateboarder who travels 60 meters in 30 seconds has a speed of
natulia [17]

2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance traveled = 60m

time taken = 30seconds

Unknown:

Speed of skateboarder = ?

Solution:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time taken. It is a scalar quantity that only revers magnitude;

    Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

    Speed = \frac{60}{30} = 2m/s

Carla draws two circuit diagrams that connect the same components in different ways, as shown. which statement about the circuit
vagabundo [1.1K]

Carla draws two circuit diagrams that connect the same components in different ways, as shown. The correct statement is "the total resistance in circuit a is greater than that in-circuit b.". Option A. This is further explained below.

<h3>What is a circuit?</h3>

Generally, a circuit is simply defined as a fixed schedule of activities or places for a certain activity, usually including athletics or public performance.

In conclusion, Carla creates two circuit schematics, as illustrated, that link the same components in various ways. "The overall resistance in circuit an is larger than that in b," is the correct statement.
