A 326 g object is attached to a spring and executes simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.250 s. If the total energy of the

system is 5.83 J, find a) the maximum speed of the object, b) the force constant of the spring, and c) the amplitude of the motion.

Answer:

a) v_{max}=5.98\frac{m}{s}

b) k=205.92\frac{N}{m}

c) A=0.24m

Explanation:

a) In the equilibrium position of the system, that is when the spring is not elongated, the potential energy is zero. Therefore, the total energy of the system is the maximum kinetic energy:

E=K_{max}\\E=\frac{mv_{max}^2}{2}\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}}\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{2(5.83J)}{0.326kg}}\\v_{max}=5.98\frac{m}{s}

b) The force constant of the spring can be calculated from the natural frequency of the system:

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

Recall that \omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}\\, that is the distance traveled in one revolution divided into the time of one revolution. Replacing and solving for k:

k=\frac{m4\pi^2}{T^2}\\k=\frac{(0.326kg)4\pi^2}{(0.25s)^2}\\k=205.92\frac{N}{m}

c) The maximum speed is directly proportional to the amplitude of the motion:

v_{max}=A\omega\\A=\frac{v_{max}}{\omega}\\A=\frac{(v_{max})T}{2\pi}\\A=\frac{(5.98\frac{m}{s})0.25s}{2\pi}\\A=0.24m

If you put a object in front of the mirror why does it appear the opposite way
UNO [17]
It is because that is how mirrors work, they reflect light, and since we see objects because we are seeing the light these objects reflect, what is reflected back by the mirror is what we see.

A car drives at steady speed around a perfectly circular track.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

e. Both the acceleration and net force on the car point inward.

Explanation:

If no net force acts on the car, the car must drive in a straight line, at constant speed.

As the acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity vector, this means that it can produce either a change in the magnitude of the velocity (the speed) or in the direction.

In order to the car can follow a circular trajectory, it must be subjected to an acceleration, that must go inward, trying to take the car towards the center of the circle.

The net force that causes this acceleration, aims inward, and is called the centripetal force.

It is not a different type of force, it can be a friction force, a tension force, a normal force, etc., as needed.

Why would companies want their sunscreen to absorb nearly all of the UV light?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Sunscreen is like a shield, you would want a better shield to protect you than a weak one so companies try to make their sunscreen better than the rest.
