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

A small branch is wedged under a 200 kg rock and rests on a smaller object. The smaller object is 2.0 m from the large rock and
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

a

  F  =326.7 \ N

b

  M  = 6

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

          The mass of the rock is  m_r  =  200 \ kg

          The  length of the small object from the rock is  d  =  2 \ m

          The  length of the small object from the branch l  =  12 \ m

An image representing this lever set-up is shown on the first uploaded image

Here the small object acts as a fulcrum

The  force exerted by the weight of the rock is mathematically evaluated as

      W =  m_r *  g

substituting values

     W =   200 *  9.8

     W =   1960 \ N

 So  at  equilibrium the sum  of the moment about the fulcrum is mathematically represented as

         \sum  M_f  =  F * cos \theta *  l  -  W cos\theta  *  d =  0

Here  \theta is very small so  cos\theta  *  l  =  l

                               and  cos\theta  *  d  =  d

Hence

       F *   l  -  W  * d =  0

=>    F  = \frac{W * d}{l}

substituting values

        F  = \frac{1960 *  2}{12}

       F  =326.7 \ N

The  mechanical advantage is mathematically evaluated as

          M  = \frac{W}{F}

substituting values

        M  = \frac{1960}{326.7}

       M  = 6

Suppose you are walking in an airliner in flight. Use Newton’s third law to describe the effect of your walk on the motion on th
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The effect of your walking will create a force on the airline acting downwards, due to the weight. By Newton's thirds law the airline will exert an equal and opposite reaction force directed downwards.

Explanation:

The weight of all the passengers acts downwards on the floor of the Airplane.

The Airplane exerts an equal and opposite force on the passengers, with the help of its propulsion due to which the flight keeps on flying without falling down.

Hence by changing the frame of reference we can observe the force which is responsible for the reaction.
