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

imagine a horse pulling a cart. What would happen to the speed of the cart if several bags of cement were adding to the cart?
iogann1982 [59]
Assuming the power delivered by the horse does not change, the speed of the cart will decrease.
In fact, the power delivered by the horse is the work done by the horse (W) per unit time (t):
P=\frac{W}{t}
<span>If several bags are added to the cart, the horse must do more work to transport them. Therefore, W in the fraction increases. But if the power P of the horse is constant, then it means that the time t must increase as well. So, the horse will take more time to transport the car, and this means that the speed of the cart has decreased.</span>
