Answer:

The potential energy of the system is \dfrac{E}{4}.

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of object , m .

Spring constant , k .

Total energy , E .

Maximum displacement , A .

We have to find potential energy when its kinetic energy is equal to 3/4E .

Now, we know :

Total energy is constant in simple harmonic motion.

Therefore ,

Total energy = Kinetic energy + potential energy .

E=P.E+\dfrac{3E}{4}\\\\P.E=\dfrac{E}{4}

Hence , this is the required solution.

4. The bar has cross-sectional area A and modulus of elasticity E. If an axial force F directed toward the right is applied at C
aniked [119]

Answer:

a)  ΔL/L = F / (E A),  b)   L_{f} = L (1 + L F /(EA) )

Explanation:

Let's write the formula for Young's module

     E = P / (ΔL / L)

Let's rewrite the formula, to have the pressure alone

    P = E ΔL / L

The pressure is defined as

    P = F / A

Let's replace

   F / A = E ΔL / L

   F = E A ΔL / L

   ΔL / L = F / (E A)

b) To calculate the elongation we must have the variation of the length, so the length of the bar must be a fact. Let's clear

    ΔL = L [F / EA]

    L_{f} -L = L (F / EA)

    L_{f} = L + L (F / EA)

    L_{f} = L (1 + L (F / EA))

A man goes 150 m due east and then 200 m due north how far is he from starting point
grin007 [14]

Answer:

250 m

Explanation:

Since North and East are 90 degrees from each other, we can treat this as a right-angled triangle, with the distance in each direction being the sides and the distance from the starting point being the hypotenuse.

Hence, sqrt(150^2+200^2) = 250 m.

Hope this helped!

The length of a bicycle pedal arm is 0.152 m, and a downward force of 118 N is applied to the pedal by the rider's foot. What is
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:8.968 N-m

Explanation:

Given

Length of arm=0.152 m

Downward force=118 N

angle made by arm with vertical=30^{\circ}

Force can be divided into two components

It's sin component will contribute towards torque while cos component will not contibute

Torque =Fsin30\times L

T=118\times sin30\times 0.152

T=8.968 N-m

A less massive moving object has an elastic collision with a more massive object that is not moving. Compare the initial velocit
stepladder [879]

Assume that the small-massed particle is m and the heavier mass particle is M.

Now, by momentum conservation and energy conservation:

   mv = mv_{m} + Mv_{M}

   mv^{2} = mv^{2}_{m} + Mv^{2}_{M}

Now, there are 2 solutions but, one of them is useless to this question's main point so I excluded that point. Ask me in the comments if you want the excluded solution too.

   v_{m} = v\frac{m - M}{m + M}\\\\\\v_{M} = v\frac{m + M}{m + M}\\

So now, we see that v_{m} < 0 and v_{M} > 0. So therefore, the smaller mass recoils out.

Hope this helps you!

Bye!
