Answer:

  ρ = 1.13 10⁴  km/m³

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's equilibrium equation

        B –W + W_scale = 0

Where B is the thrust and W_scale is the balance reading

The push is given by Archimedes' law

        B = ρ_water g V

        B = W- W_scale

        B = m g - m_scale g  

       

Let's calculate

         B = 14.7 9.8 - 13.4 9.8

         B = 12.74 N

         ρ_water g V = 12.74

         V = 12.74 / ρ_water g

         V = 12.74 / 1000 9.8

         V = 0.0013 m³

Let's use density

          ρ = m / V

           

We replace

         ρ = 14.7 / 0.0013

         ρ = 1.13 10⁴  km/m³

A force of 960 newtons stretches a spring 4 meters. A mass of 60 kilograms is attached to the end of the spring and is initially
Drupady [299]

Answer:

x(t) = - 6 cos 2t

Explanation:

Force of spring = - kx

k= spring constant

x= distance traveled by compressing

But force = mass × acceleration

==> Force = m × d²x/dt²

===> md²x/dt² = -kx

==> md²x/dt² + kx=0   ------------------------(1)

Now Again, by Hook's law

Force = -kx

==> 960=-k × 400

==> -k =960 /4 =240 N/m

ignoring -ve sign k= 240 N/m

Put given data in eq (1)

We get

60d²x/dt² + 240x=0

==> d²x/dt² + 4x=0

General solution for this differential eq is;

x(t) = A cos 2t + B sin 2t   ------------------------(2)

Now initially

position of mass spring

at time = 0 sec

x (0) = 0 m

initial velocity v= = dx/dt=  6m/s

from (2) we have;

dx/dt= -2Asin 2t +2B cost 2t = v(t) --- (3)

put t =0 and dx/dt = v(0) = -6 we get;

-2A sin 2(0)+2Bcos(0) =-6

==> 2B = -6

B= -3

Putting B = 3 in eq (2) and ignoring first term (because it is not possible to find value of A with given initial conditions) - we get

x(t) = - 6 cos 2t

==>
