Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the spring, l = 50 cm

Mass, m = 330 g = 0.33 kg

(A) The mass is released and falls, stretching the spring by 28 cm before coming to rest at its lowest point. On applying second law of Newton at 14 cm below the lowest point we get :

kx=mg\\\\k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{0.33\times 9.8}{0.14}\\\\k=23.1\ N/m

(B) The amplitude of the oscillation is half of the total distance covered. So, amplitude is 14 cm.

(C) The frequency of the oscillation is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{23.1}{0.33}} \\\\f=1.33\ Hz

A torque of 36.5 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result
vivado [14]

Answer:

21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

3.672\ \text{Nm}

54.66\ \text{revolutions}

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 36.5 Nm

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity = 0

\omega_f = Final angular velocity = 10.3 rad/s

t = Time = 6.1 s

I = Moment of inertia

From the kinematic equations of linear motion we have

\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha_1 t\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{10.3-0}{6.1}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=1.69\ \text{rad/s}^2

Torque is given by

\tau=I\alpha_1\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{\tau}{\alpha_1}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{36.5}{1.69}\\\Rightarrow I=21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

The wheel's moment of inertia is 21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

t = 60.6 s

\omega_i = 10.3 rad/s

\omega_f = 0

\alpha_2=\dfrac{0-10.3}{60.6}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=-0.17\ \text{rad/s}^2

Frictional torque is given by

\tau_f=I\alpha_2\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=21.6\times -0.17\\\Rightarrow \tau=-3.672\ \text{Nm}

The magnitude of the torque caused by friction is 3.672\ \text{Nm}

Speeding up

\theta_1=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.69\times 6.1^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_1=31.44\ \text{rad}

Slowing down

\theta_2=10.3\times 60.6+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-0.17)\times 60.6^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=312.03\ \text{rad}

Total number of revolutions

\theta=\theta_1+\theta_2\\\Rightarrow \theta=31.44+312.03=343.47\ \text{rad}

\dfrac{343.47}{2\pi}=54.66\ \text{revolutions}

The total number of revolutions the wheel goes through is 54.66\ \text{revolutions}.

You know your mass is 62 kg but when you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator it says your mass is 77 kg what is the acceler
lbvjy [14]
In a stationary situation, the weight of person is
W=mg=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2) = 608.2 N
This is the weight "felt" by the scale, which is basically the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which uses the value of g (9.81) as reference to convert the weight (602.8 N) into a mass (62 kg).

When the person is in the elevator, the scale says 77 kg. The scale is still using the same value of conversion (9.81), so the apparent weight "felt" by the scale is
W' = m'g=(77 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=755.4 N
This is the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which is directed upward. Besides this force, there is still the weight W of the person, acting downward. So, if we use Newton's second law:
\sum F = ma
W-W'=ma
where a is the acceleration of the elevator. If we solve for a, we find
a= \frac{W-W'}{m}= \frac{608.2N-755.4N}{62 kg}=-2.37 m/s^2
The negative sign means the acceleration is in the opposite direction of g (which we take positive), so it means the elevator is going upward.

True/False: If an object stays still, but the observer moves, the Doppler Effect is still observered
Vladimir79 [104]

Well, Harry, what you said is not necessarily true the way you said it. 
But we know what you mean, and what you meant to say is true.

The Doppler effect is observed if there is relative radial motion
between an object and an observer <em><u>AND</u></em> if the object happens
to be putting out sound or light in the observer's direction.

A record player turntable initially rotating at 3313 rev/min is braked to a stop at a constant rotational acceleration. The turn
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a. 16 s b. -1.866 kJ

Explanation:

a. Since the initial rotational speed ω₀= 3313 rev/min = 3313/60 × 2π rad/s = 346.94 rad/s. Its rotational speed becomes ω₁ = 0.75ω₀ in time t = 4 s.

We find it rotational acceleration using α = (ω₁ - ω₀)/t = (0.75ω₀ - ω₀)/t = ω₀(0.75 - 1)/t = -0.25ω₀/t = (-0.25 × 346.94 rad/s)/4 s = -21.68 rad/s².

Since the turntable stops at ω = 0, the time it takes to stop is gotten from

ω = ω₀ + αt and t = (ω - ω₀)/α = (0 - 346.94 rad/s)/-21.68 rad/s² = (-346.94/-21.68) s = 16 s.

So it takes the turntable 16 s to stop.

b. The workdone by the turntable to stop W equals its rotational kinetic energy change.

So, W = 1/2Iω² - 1/2Iω₀² = 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × 0² - 1/2 × 0.031 kgm² × (346.94 rad/s)² = 0 - 1865.7 J = -1865.7 J = -1.8657 kJ ≅ -1.866 kJ
