A block of unknown mass is attached to a spring of spring constant 7.3 N/m and undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitud

e of 12.7 cm. When the mass is halfway between its equilibrium position and the endpoint, its speed is measured to be 32.2 cm/s. Calculate the mass of the block. Answer in units of kg

Answer:

0.8516 kg

Explanation:

K = 7.3 N/m

A = 12.7 cm

y = A/2, v = 32.2 cm/s

Use the formula for the speed of mass

v=\omega \sqrt{A^{2}-y^{2}}

32.2=\omega \sqrt{A^{2}-\frac{A^{2}}{4}}}

32.2=\omega \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\times 12.7

ω = 2.93 rad/s

Now, \omega =^{\sqrt{\frac{K}{m}}}

Where, m is the mass of block.

m=\frac{K}{\omega ^{2}}

m = 7.3 / (2.93 x 2.93) = 0.8516 kg

Which velocity-time graph matches the position-time graph?
skelet666 [1.2K]

The answer is Graph C. To explain, this is because as we look at the position vs time graph, we see that after the first second, it was 30 meters from the start. That would mean that it took 1 second to get to 30 meters. That is shown in Graph c

What the planet after Venus
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Mercury and Venus are therefore closer to each other most of the time. But Earth is the planet closest to Venus. And that's why from here on Earth, Venus looks so big and luminous. Venus is the brightest thing in the night sky after the sun and the moon.

Problem: A barbell consists of two small balls, each with mass m at the ends of a very low mass rod of length d. The barbell is
zepelin [54]

Answer:

mass of ball 1=m1

mass of ball 2=m2

velocity of ball=r1w1

velocity of ball 2=r2w2

Total angular momentum=m1*v1+m2*v2

but

v1=r1*w1

v2=r2*w2

Substitute values in above equation

Total angular momentum of the system=m1*r1*w1+m2*r2*w2
