A mass is hung from a spring and set in motion so that it oscillates continually up and down. The velocity v of the weight at ti

me t is given by the equation y=−5 cos(4πt) with v measured in feet per second and t measured in seconds. Determine the maximum velocity of the mass and the amount of time it takes for the mass to move from its lowest position to its highest position.

To solve the problem it is necessary to identify the equation in the manner given above.

This equation corresponds to the displacement of a body under the principle of simple harmonic movement.

Where,

\xi = Acos(\omega t +\phi)

PART A) Our equation corresponds to

y = -5cos(4\pi t)

Therefore the value of omega is equivalent to that of

\omega = 4\pi

From the definition we know that the period as a function of angular velocity is equivalent to

T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}

T = \frac{2\pi}{4\pi}

T = \frac{1}{2}

This same point is the equivalent of the maximum point of the speed that the body can reach, since the internal expression of the cos\thetaIs equivalent to . So the maximum speed that the body can reach is,

y = -5cos(4\pi t)

y = -5cos(4\pi (1/2))

y = -5*(-1)

y = 5

Therefore the maximum felocity will be 5ft / s

PART B) The period of graph is the time taken to reach from one maximum point to next point maximum point, then

t = \frac{T}{2} = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{2}

t = \frac{1}{4}s

How was the formation of the outer planets affected by their distance from the sun?
djverab [1.8K]

The formation of the outer planets are affected by their distance from the sun with having them to maintain the lighter elements that they are composed of such as the hydrogen and helium, having them far away will also make their planet more cooler as the sun is distant from them.

what volume of alcohol will have the same mass as 4.2m^3 of petrol? (density of alcohol 0.4kg/m^3 and petrol is 0.3kg/m^3)​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

       Mass  = density x volume

Volume of petrol  = 4.2m³

Density of petrol  = 0.3kgm⁻³  

       Mass of petrol  = 4.2 x 0.3  = 1.26kg

So;

      We can now find the volume of the alcohol

 Volume of alcohol = \frac{mass}{density}  

Mass of alcohol  = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol  = 0.4kgm⁻³  

  Volume of alcohol  = \frac{1.26}{0.4}   = 3.15m³

a sound pulse emitted underwater reflects off a school of fish and is detected at the same place 0.01 s later. how far away are
andrew-mc [135]
In fresh water sound waves travel at 1497m/s at 25 degrees, I'll assume that's the characteristics of the water.

If it's 0.01s then you need to divide the speed by 100 to get the, 14.97, however it gets there and back in that time so you need to halve it.

A school bus moves slower and slower. Using what you have learned about forces, explain why the bus moves slower and slower.
Levart [38]

Answer:

I don't exactly know what you learned but it could be because of more friction or the bus was running out of gas.

What is the mechanical advantage of the level shown below?
snow_lady [41]

the correct answer is B. 1.27

Mechanical advantage of a lever is simply the ratio of the effort arm to the load arm.Effort arm is the distance from the pivot to the point of application of force while load arm is the distance of the lord from the pivot.

therefore, in this question, the effort arm is 0.28m while the load arm is 0.22 m. MA is calculated as follows: MA=effort arm/load arm

                                                         =0.28m/0.22m=1.27
