A 3-kg object is attached to a spring and moving in simple harmonic motion. Its angular frequency is 20 rads/sec. When the mass-

spring system is 0.10 m from its equilibrium position it has a velocity of v=3 m/s. What is the potential energy when the mass reaches amplitude? A. 0 J
B. 6 J
C. 13.5 J
D. 8 J
E. 19.5 J

Answer:19.5 J

Explanation:

Given

mass of block=3 kg

angular frequency=20 rad/sec

spring constant $k=\omega _n^2m=1200 N/m$

we know total energy remain conserved

$E_T at x=0.1 m$

$E_T=E_P+E_K$

Where $E_K$ =kinetic energy

$E_P$ =potential Energy

$E_P=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$E_P=600\times 0.01=6 J$

$E_K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E_K=\frac{1}{2}\times 3\times 3^2=13.5 J$

$E_T=13.5+6=19.5 J$

When mass reaches amplitude its velocity becomes zero

there is only potential energy which is equal to Total energy

$E_T=E_P=19.5 J$

If a planet has the same mass as the earth, but has twice the radius, how does the surface gravity, g, compare to g on the surfa

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The surface gravity g of the planet is 1/4 of the surface gravity on earth.

Explanation:

Surface gravity is given by the following formula:

$g=G\frac{m}{r^{2}}$

So the gravity of both the earth and the planet is written in terms of their own radius, so we get:

$g_{E}=G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}$

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{r_{P}^{2}}$

The problem tells us the radius of the planet is twice that of the radius on earth, so:

$r_{P}=2r_{E}$

If we substituted that into the gravity of the planet equation we would end up with the following formula:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{(2r_{E})^{2}}$

Which yields:

$g_{P}=G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}$

So we can now compare the two gravities:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}}{G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}}$

When simplifying the ratio we end up with:

$\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{1}{4}$

So the gravity acceleration on the surface of the planet is 1/4 of that on the surface of Earth.

A motorbike accelerates from 15m/s to 25m/s in 15 seconds.

RSB [31]

distance traveled by a uniformly accelerated bike is given as

$d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2} (t)$

here we know that

$v_f = 25 m/s$

$v_i = 15 m/s$

$t = 15 s$

now we will have from above equation

$d = \frac{15 + 25}{2} (15)$

$d = 20 (15) = 300 m$

so it will cover the total distance of 300 m

What additional information is needed for velocity that uis not needed for speed?

Alik [6]

Velocity is about direction traveled in comparison to speed which is just distance with out direction
