A 0.750kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.5N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit

vazorg [7]

Answer:

A)A=0.075 m

B)v= 0.21 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.75 kg

K= 13.5 N

The natural frequency of the block given as

$\omega =\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}$

The maximum speed v given as

$v=\omega A$

A=Amplitude

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times A$

$0.32=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times A$

A=0.075 m

A= 0.75 cm

The speed at distance x

$v=\omega \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times \sqrt{0.075^2-(0.075\times 0.75)^2}$

v= 0.21 m/s

The universal law of gravitation states that the force of attraction between two objects depends on which quantities?

Ronch [10]

Answer:

D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.

And you can get it using the following equation:

$f = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{d^{2} }$

Where :

G is the universal gravitational constant : G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2

m represent the mass of each of the two objects

d is the distance between the centers of the objects.

In the pair of supply and demand equations below, where x represents the quantity demanded in units of a thousand and p the unit

arlik [135]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity = 5

Equilibrium price = 40

Explanation:

given:

p = -x²-3x+80

p = 7x+5

For the equilibrium quantity the price from both the functions will be equal

thus, we have

-x² - 3x + 80 = 7x+5

⇒ x² +3x + 7x + 5 - 80 = 0

⇒x² + 10x - 75 = 0

now solving for x

x²- 5x + 15x -75 = 0

x(x-5) + 15(x-5) = 0

therefore, the two roots of the equation are

x = 5 and x = -15

since the quantity cannot be in negative

therefore, the equilibrium quantity will be = 5

now the equilibrium price can be found out by substituting the equilibrium quantity in any of the equation

thus,

p = -(5)² -3(5) + 80 = 40

p = 7(5) + 5 = 40
