An object of mass 0.40 kg, hanging from a spring with a spring constant of 8.0 N/m, is set into an up-and-down simple harmonic m

otion. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object when it is at its maximum displacement of 0.10 m?

Answer:

a = 2 m/s2

Explanation:

we know from newtons 2nd law

F = ma.

we also know that from hookes law we have

F = kx

equate both value of force to get value of acceleration

kx = ma,

where,

k is spring constant = 8.0 N/m

x is maximum displacement  0.10 m

m is mass of object 0.40 kg

a = \frac{kx}{m}

     = \frac{8 *0 .10}{0.40}

a = 2 m/s2

You drop a ball from a height of 2.0 m, and it bounces back to a height of 1.5 m. (a) what fraction of its initial energy is los
Scilla [17]

a) At a position of 2.0m, the Initial energy is all made up of the potential energy=m*g*hi<span>
and meanwhile at 1.5 all its energy is also potential energy=m*g*hf 

The percentage of energy remaining is E=m*g*hi/m*g*hf x 100 

and since mass and gravity are constant so it leaves us with just E=hi/hf 
which 1.5/2.0 x100= 75% so we see that we lost 25% of the energy or 0.25 in fraction 

b) Here use the equation vf^2=vi^2+2gd 

<span>where g is gravity, vf is the final velocity and vi is the initial velocity while d is the distance travelled

so in here we are looking for the vi so let us isolate that variable 
we know that at maximum height or peak, the velocity is 0 so vf is 0 

therefore,</span></span>

vi =sqrt(-2gd) <span>
vi =sqrt(-2x-9.81x1.5) </span>
<span>vi =5.4 m/s

<span>c) The energy was converted to heat due to friction with the air and the ground.</span></span>

I need an answer for this plzz!!<br>number 2 <br>anybody can help ??

2.1) (i) W = mg downwards
(ii) N = R = Normal Reaction from the ground upwards
(iii) Fe = Force of engine towards the right
(iv) f = friction towards the left
(v) ma = Constant acceleration towards right.
2.2.1)
v = 25 m/s
u = 0 m/s
∆v = v - u = (25 - 0) m/s = 25 m/s
x = X
∆t = 50 s
a \:  =  \:  \frac{dv}{dt}  \:  =  \:  \frac{25 \:  \frac{m}{s} }{50 \: s} \:  =  \: 0.5 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} }
a = 0.5 m/s².
2.2.2)
F = ma = 900 kg × 0.5 m/s² = 450 N.
2.2.3)
2ax \:  =  \:  {v}^{2}  \:  -  \:  {u}^{2}
x \:  =  \:  \frac{ {v}^{2}  \:   -  \:  {u}^{2} }{2a}  \:  =  \:   \frac{{(25 \:  \frac{m}{s})}^{2}  \:  -  \:  {(0 \:  \frac{m}{s} )}^{2} }{2 \:  \times  \: 0.5 \:  \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} } } \:  =  \: 625 \: m
2.3)
Fe = f + ma
Fe - f = ma
For velocity to be constant,
a should be 0, or, a = 0,
Fe = f = 270 N
2.4.1)
v = 0
u = 25 m/s
a = -0.5 m/s²
v = u + at
t = -u/a = -(25)/(-0.5) = 50 s.
2.4.2)
x = -625/(2×(-0.5)) = 625 m.

What's the difference between electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic spectrum?
White raven [17]
The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "<em>waves" </em>could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

<em>It may confuse you but it makes sense to me (Sorry)</em>
