The height of the tide measured at a seaside community varies according to the number of hours t after midnight. If the height h

, in feet, is currently given by the equation h=-1/2 t^2+6t-9, when will the tide first be at 6 ft?

Explanation:

Given that, the height of the tide measured at a seaside community varies according to the number of hours t after midnight. The height is given by the equation as :

h=-\dfrac{1}{2}t^2+6t-9

When the tide first be at 6 ft, put h = 6 ft in above equation as :

-\dfrac{1}{2}t^2+6t-9=6

-t^2+12t-18=0

On solving the above equation to find the value of t. It is equal to :

t = 3.551 seconds

or

t = 8.449 seconds

So, the tide of 6 ft is at  3.551 seconds and 8.449 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the magnitude of the velocity when the elastic potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy? (Assume that U=0 at equi
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

General Equation of SHM is given by

x=A\cos \omega t

v=-A\omega \sin \omega t

where x=position of particle

A=maximum Amplitude

\omega =angular frequency

t=time

At any time Total Energy is the sum of kinetic Energy and Elastic potential Energy i.e. \frac{1}{2}kA^2

where k=spring constant

Potential Energy is given by U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

also it is given that Potential Energy(U) is equal to Kinetic Energy(K)

Total Energy=K+U

Total=2U=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2

\frac{1}{2}kA^2=2\times \frac{1}{2}kx^2

x=\pm \frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}

at x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}

velocity is v=\frac{A\omega}{\sqrt{2}}
