A 0.520-kg object attached to a spring with a force constant of 8.00 N/m vibrates in simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass attached to spring

M = 0.52kg

Force constant K = 8N/m

Amplitude A = 11.6 cm

a. Maximum speed?

Angular velocity is calculated using

w = √k/m

w = √8/0.52

w = √15.385

w = 3.922rad/s

Then, the relation ship between angular velocity and linear velocity is given as

v = - w•A

v = - 3.922 × 11.6

v = - 45.5 cm/s

Then, the maximum velocity is

vmax = |v|= 45.5cm/s

b. Acceleration a?

Acceleration can be determine using the formula

a = -w²• A

a = -3.922² × 11.6

a = -178.46 cm/s²

Magnitude of the acceleration is 178.46cm/s²

c. Speed when the object is at 9.6cm from equilibrium position?

Generally,

The position of the object at equilibrium is

x(t) = A•Cos(wt)

x(t) = 11.6 Cos (3.922t)

Then, when x(t) = 9.6cm

9.6 = 11.6 Cos(3.92t)

Cos(3.922t) = 9.6/11.6

Cos(3.922t) = 0.8276

3.922t = ArcCos(0.8276)

Note: the angle is in radiant

3.922t = 0.596

t = 0.596/3.922

t = 0.152 second

Then, v(t) at that time is

v(t) = x'(t) = -11.6×3.92Sin(3.922t)

v(t) = -45.5Sin(3.922t)

Now, when t =0.152

v(t) = -45.5 Sin(3.922×0.152)

v(t) = -45.5Sin(0.596)

v(t) = -25.5 cm/s

Then, it's magnitude is 25.5cm/s

d. Acceleration at same position

t = 0.152s

a(t) = v'(t) = - 45.5×3.922Cos(3.922t)

a(t) = -178.46Cos(3.92t)

a(t) = -178.46 Cos(3.92×0.152)

a(t) = -178.46 Cos(0.596)

a(t) = -147.68 cm/s²

Magnitude of the acceleration is 147.68 cm/s²

A particular coaxial cable is comprised of inner and outer conductors having radii 1 mm and 3 mm respectively, separated by air.

noname [10]

Answer:

The value is $\rho_s = 4.026 *10^{-6} \ C/m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the inner conductor is $r_1 = 1 \ mm = 0.001 \ m$

The radius of the outer conductor is $r_2 = 3 \ mm = 0.003 \ m$

The potential at the outer conductor is $V = 1.5 kV = 1.5 *10^{3} \ V$

Generally the capacitance per length of the capacitor like set up of the two conductors is

$C= \frac{2 * \pi * \epsilon_o }{ ln [\frac{r_2}{r_1} ]}$

Here $\epsilon_o$ is the permitivity of free space with value $\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} C/(V \cdot m)$

=> $C= \frac{2 * 3.142 * 8.85*10^{-12} }{ ln [\frac{0.003}{0.001} ]}$

=> $C= 50.6 *10^{-12} \ F/m$

Generally given that the potential of the outer conductor with respect to the inner conductor is positive it then mean that the outer conductor is positively charge

Generally the line charge density of the outer conductor is mathematically represented as

$\rho_l = C * V$

=> $\rho_d = 50.6*10^{-12} * 1.5*10^{3}$

=> $\rho_d = 7.59*10^{-8} \ C/m$

Generally the surface charge density is mathematically represented as

$\rho_s = \frac{\rho_l }{2 \pi * r_2 }$ here $2 \pi r = (circumference \ of \ outer \ conductor )$

=> $\rho_s = \frac{7.59 *10^{-8} }{2* 3.142 * 0.003 }$

=> $\rho_s = 4.026 *10^{-6} \ C/m^2$

Consider a railroad bridge over a highway. A train passing over the bridge dislodges a loose bolt from the bridge, which proceed

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

12.35m

Explanation:

Hello! To solve this problem we must consider the following:

1. The car moves with constant speed, which means that the distance traveled is equal to the multiplication of time by speed.

X = VT

we solve the equation for time

$T=\frac{x}{V} =\frac{27}{17} =1.588s$

2. The bolt moves with constant acceleration, with acceleration of 9.81m / s ^ 2, so we could apply the following equation.

note=remember that "a uniformly accelerated motion", means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

$Y= VoT-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

where

Vo = Initial speed

T = time

=1.588s

g =gravity=9.8m/s^2

Y = bridge height

solving

$Y= \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}\\Y=(0.5)(9.8)(1.588^2)=12.35m$
