A 1 kg mass is attached to a spring with spring constant 7 Nt/m. What is the frequency of the simple harmonic motion? What is th

Scorpion4ik [409]

1. 0.42 Hz

The frequency of a simple harmonic motion for a spring is given by:

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

where

k = 7 N/m is the spring constant

m = 1 kg is the mass attached to the spring

Substituting these numbers into the formula, we find

$f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}}=0.42 Hz$

2. 2.38 s

The period of the harmonic motion is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

where f = 0.42 Hz is the frequency. Substituting into the formula, we find

$T=\frac{1}{0.42 Hz}=2.38 s$

3. 0.4 m

The amplitude in a simple harmonic motion corresponds to the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system. In this case, the mass is initially displaced by 0.4 m: this means that during its oscillation later, the displacement cannot be larger than this value (otherwise energy conservation would be violated). Therefore, this represents the maximum displacement of the mass-spring system, so it corresponds to the amplitude.

4. 0.19 m

We can solve this part of the problem by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact:

- When the mass is released from equilibrium position, the compression/stretching of the spring is zero: $x=0$ , so the elastic potential energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy of the system is just equal to the kinetic energy of the mass:

$E=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where m = 1 kg and v = 0.5 m/s is the initial velocity of the mass

- When the spring reaches the maximum compression/stretching (x=A=amplitude), the velocity of the system is zero, so the kinetic energy is zero, and all the mechanical energy is just elastic potential energy:

$E=U=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

Since the total energy must be conserved, we have:

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v=\sqrt{\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}}(0.5 m/s)=0.19 m$

5. Amplitude of the motion: 0.44 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

- $E_i = \frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2$ is the initial mechanical energy of the system, with $x_0=0.4 m$ being the initial displacement of the mass and $v_0=0.5 m/s$ being the initial velocity

$- E_f = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$ is the mechanical energy of the system when x=A (maximum displacement)

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find A, the amplitude:

$\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}kA^2\\A=\sqrt{x_0^2+\frac{m}{k}v_0^2}=\sqrt{(0.4 m)^2+\frac{1 kg}{7 N/m}(0.5 m/s)^2}=0.44 m$

6. Maximum velocity: 1.17 m/s

We can use again the law of conservation of energy.

$- E_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$ is the mechanical energy of the system when x=0, which is when the system has maximum velocity, $v_{max}$

Equalizing the two expressions, we can solve to find $v_{max}$ , the maximum velocity:

$\frac{1}{2}kx_0^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2\\v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x_0^2+v_0^2}=\sqrt{\frac{7 N/m}{1 kg}(0.4 m)^2+(0.5 m/s)^2}=1.17 m/s m$

What is the volume of a rock with a density of 3.00 g/cm3 and a mass of 600g?

Mademuasel [1]

The equation of D = m/V

Where D = density
m = mass
and V = volume

We are solving for V, so with the manipulation of variables we multiply V on both sides giving us
V(D) = m
now we divide D on both sides giving us
V = m/D

We know our mass which is 600g and our density is 3.00 g/cm^3
so
V = 600g/3.00g/cm^3 = 200cm^3 or 200mL

a cubic centimeter (cm^3) is one of the units for volume. It's exactly like mL. 1 cm^3 = 1 mL

If you wish to change it to L, you'd have to convert.

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the maximum speed of the oscillat

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled , then maximum speed of the oscillator changes by the factor 2

Explanation:

We know that in a simple harmonic oscillator the maximum speed is given by

$v_{max}$ = $Aw$

Here A is amplitude which is constant , so from above equation we see that maximum speed is directly proportional to $w\\$ of the oscillation .

Since $w = 2 \pi f$

$v_{max}^{|}/v_{max} = 2f/f$ = 2

Where $v_{max}^{|}$ is the maximum speed when frequency is doubled .

Answer:

Explanation:

First we must explain the essential when we clear equations, and that is that if the term we need to clear is accompanied by other terms that are being added up, then those terms go to the other side of the equation to subtract if those terms are subtracting, then they go to the other side to add, if those terms are found multiplying then they go to the other side of the equation to divide and if those other terms are found dividing then they go to the other side of the equation to multiply.

(Primero debemos explicar lo esencial cuando despejamos ecuaciones, y es que si el término que necesitamos despejar va acompañado de otros términos que se están sumando, entonces esos términos van al otro lado de la ecuación para restar si esos términos están restando, luego van al otro lado para sumar, si esos términos se encuentran multiplicando luego van al otro lado de la ecuación a dividir, y si esos términos se encuentran dividiendo, pasan al otro lado de la ecuación a multiplicar.)
