A mass of 1000 kg drops from a height of 10 m on a platform of negligible mass. It is desired to design a spring and dashpot on

which to mount the platform so that the platform will settle to a new equilibrium position 0.2 m below its original position as quickly as possible after the impact without overshooting. Find the spring constant k and the damping constant b of the dashpot. Be sure to examine your proposed solution x(f) to make sure that it satisfies the correct initial conditions and docs not overshoot. Find, to two significant figures, the time required for the platform to settle within 1 mm of its final position.

Answer:

k = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

b = 0.707\times 10^{3}

t = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the block, m = 1000 kg

Height, h = 10 m

Equilibrium position, x = 0.2 m

Now,

The velocity when the mass falls from a height of 10 m is given by the third eqn of motion:

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2gh

where

u = initial velocity = 0

g = 10m/s^{2}

Thus

v = \sqrt{2\times 10\times 10} = 10\sqrt{2}\ m/s

Force on the mass is given by:

F = mg = 1000\times 10 = 10000 N = 10\ kN

Also, we know that the spring force is given by:

F = - kx

Thus

k = \frac{F}{x} = \frac{10000}{0.2} = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

Now, to find the damping constant b, we know that:

F = - bv

b = \frac{F}{v} = \frac{10000}{10\sqrt{2}} = 0.707\times 10^{3}

Now,

Time required for the platform to get settled to 1 mm or 0.001 m is given by:

t = \frac{0.001}{v} = \frac{0.001}{10\sqrt{2}} = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s

What structures can be found in the axial region of the body?
Softa [21]

Answer:

The axial region of the body consists of the bones of the head, trunk of a vertebrate, skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage. The human skeleton consists of 80 bones.

Explanation:

The axial region of the body consists of the bones of the head, trunk of a vertebrate, skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage. The human skeleton consists of 80 bones.

It is composed of the following six parts:

1. Skull (22 bones)

2. Ossicles of the middle ear

3. Hyoid bone

4. Rib cage

5. Sternum

6. Vertebral column

The axial region of the body forms the vertical axis of the body as the axial skeleton supports the head, neck, back, and chest.

A block, M1=10kg, slides down a smooth, curved incline of height 5m. It collides elastically with another block, M2=5kg, which i
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

2.86 m

Explanation:

Given:

M₁ = 10 kg

M₂ = 5 kg

\mu_k = 0.5

height, h = 5 m

distance traveled, s = 2 m

spring constant, k = 250 N/m

now,

the initial velocity of the first block as it approaches the second block

u₁ = √(2 × g × h)

or

u₁ = √(2 × 9.8 × 5)

or

u₁ = 9.89 m/s

let the velocity of second ball be v₂

now from the conservation of momentum, we have

M₁ × u₁ = M₂ × v₂

on substituting the values, we get

10 × 9.89 = 5 × v₂

or

v₂ = 19.79 m/s

now,

let the velocity of mass 2 when it reaches the spring be v₃

from the work energy theorem,  we have

Work done by the friction force = change in kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

0.5\times5\times9.8\times2 = \frac{1}{2}\times5\times( v_3^2-19.79^2)

or

v₃ = 20.27 m/s

now, let the spring is compressed by the distance 'x'

therefore, from the conservation of energy

we have

Energy of the spring =  Kinetic energy of the mass 2

or

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_3^2

on substituting the values, we get

\frac{1}{2}\times250\times x^2=\frac{1}{2}\times5\times20.27^2

or

x = 2.86 m
