A 250 g air-track glider is attached to a spring with springconstant 4.0 N/m. Th damping constant due to air resistance is0.015

kg/s. The glider is pulled out 20cm from equilibrium and released. How many oscillations will it make during the time which the amplitude decays to e-1 of tis initial value?

Answer:

33.33 seconds

Explanation:

N=\dfrac{1}{e}N_0

N_0 = Initial length pulled = 20 cm

b = Damping constant = 0.015 kg/s

k = Spring constant = 4 N/m

m = Mass of glider = 250 g

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.25}{4}}\\\Rightarrow T=1.57079632679\ s

Using exponential decay formula

N=N_0e^{\dfrac{-bt}{m}}

Final amplitude = Initial times decay

\dfrac{1}{e}0.2=0.2e^{\dfrac{-0.015t}{2\times 0.25}}\\\Rightarrow 0.2=0.2e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\\\Rightarrow e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}=1\\\Rightarrow \ln \left(e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1\right)\ln \left(e\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow -\frac{0.015t}{0.5}=-1\\\Rightarrow -0.000225t=-0.0075\\\Rightarrow t=33.33\ s

The time taken is 33.33 seconds

Diane swim 5 kilometers against the current in the same amout of time it took her to swim 15 kilometers with the current . The r
lidiya [134]

Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

suppose 's' is Diane's speed with no current.

't' represents time in hrs.

Using the formula:

Distance = speed 's' x time 't'

-> when she swims against the current, equation will be,

5= (s-2)t

t= 5/(s-2)

->when she was swimming with the current, equation is,

15= (s+2) t

t= 15/(s+2)

equating eq(1) and (2)

5/(s-2) = 15/(s+2)

5s + 10 = 15s - 30

40= 10s

s= 40/10

s=4

Therefore, if there were no current, her speed is 4km/hr

What can be said in general about warm colours
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Warm colours are those with a yellow-ish or black undertone. Imagine how everything looks through your tinted sunglasses or on a beautiful day in autumn when the leaves are falling. The hints of yellow give these colours a sunny warmth, while those with more black mixed in appear darker and can seem more muted.
