Matter has a property that makes it have a tendency to remain at its original motion. We call this property inertia. This is also the reason why a man standing on the bus continues moving forward despite the bus slowing down. He will have the tendency to go to the same direction prior to the change. Thus, the answer is D: inertia<span>.</span>

The answer is C.
they run east to west which makes them parallel to the equator and they measure distances north and south.
I hope this helps.

A block of unknown mass is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 7.00 N/m 2 and undergoes simple harmonic motion with a

KatRina [158]

Answers:

a) $0.80 kg$

b) $2.12 s$

c) $1.093 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$k=7 N/m$ is the spring constant

$A=12.5 cm \frac{1 m}{100 cm}=0.125 m$ is the amplitude of oscillation

$V=32 cm/s=0.32 m/s$ is the velocity of the block when $x=\frac{A}{2}=0.0625 m$

Now let's begin with the answers:

<h3>a) Mass of the block</h3>

We can solve this by the conservation of energy principle:

$U_{o}+K_{o}=U_{f}+K_{f}$ (1)

Where:

$U_{o}=k\frac{A^{2}}{2}$ is the initial potential energy

$K_{o}=0$ is the initial kinetic energy

$U_{f}=k\frac{x^{2}}{2}$ is the final potential energy

$K_{f}=\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}$ is the final kinetic energy

Then:

$k\frac{A^{2}}{2}=k\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}$ (2)

Isolating $m$ :

$m=\frac{k(A^{2}-x^{2})}{V^{2}}$ (3)

$m=\frac{7 N/m((0.125 m)^{2}-(0.0625 m)^{2})}{(0.32 m/s)^{2}}$ (4)

$m=0.80 kg$ (5)

<h3>b) Period</h3>

The period $T$ is given by:

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$ (6)

Substituting (5) in (6):

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.80 kg}{7 N/m}}$ (7)

$T=2.12 s$ (8)

<h3>c) Maximum acceleration</h3>

The maximum acceleration $a_{max}$ is when the force is maximum $F_{max}$ , as well :

$F_{max}=m.a_{max}=k.x_{max}$ (9)

Being $x_{max}=A$

Hence:

$m.a_{max}=kA$ (10)

Finding $a_{max}$ :

$a_{max}=\frac{kA}{m}$ (11)

$a_{max}=\frac{(7 N/m)(0.125 m)}{0.80 kg}$ (12)

Finally:

$a_{max}=1.093 m/s^{2}$
