a. 0.5 T
- The amplitude A of a simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement of the system with respect to the equilibrium position
- The period T is the time the system takes to complete one oscillation
During a full time period T, the mass on the spring oscillates back and forth, returning to its original position. This means that the total distance covered by the mass during a period T is 4 times the amplitude (4A), because the amplitude is just half the distance between the maximum and the minimum position, and during a time period the mass goes from the maximum to the minimum, and then back to the maximum.
So, the time t that the mass takes to move through a distance of 2 A can be found by using the proportion
and solving for t we find
b. 1.25T
Now we want to know the time t that the mass takes to move through a total distance of 5 A. SInce we know that
- the mass takes a time of 1 T to cover a distance of 4A
we can set the following proportion:
And by solving for t, we find
Answer:
20.0 cm
Explanation:
Here is the complete question
The normal power for distant vision is 50.0 D. A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the power of her eyes. What is the closest object she can see clearly?
Solution
Now, the power of a lens, P = 1/f = 1/u + 1/v where f = focal length of lens, u = object distance from eye lens and v = image distance from eye lens.
Given that we require a 10 % increase in the power of the lens to accommodate the image she sees clearly, the new power P' = 50.0 D + 10/100 × 50 = 50.0 D + 5 D = 55.0 D.
Also, since the object is seen clearly, the distance from the eye lens to the retina equals the distance between the image and the eye lens. So, v = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m
Now, P' = 1/u + 1/v
1/u = P'- 1/v
1/u = 55.0 D - 1/0.02 m
1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 1/0.02 m
1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 50.0 m⁻¹
1/u = 5.0 m⁻¹
u = 1/5.0 m⁻¹
u = 0.2 m
u = 20 cm
So, at 55.0 dioptres, the closet object she can see is 20 cm from her eye.
The volume would be 287cm³. Multiply all the 3 numbers by each other
The frequency of the wave is 6800 Hz
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Wave number, n = 20
Speed of light, v = 340 m/s
Frequency, f = ?
we know:
wave number = 
Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 6800 Hz
