Answer:

the speed at which something moves in a particular direction

Explanation:

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. ... Velocity is a physical vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are needed to define it.

Another way to test your question is to build your own miniature buildings. Depending on how in-depth you go, building could get a little pricey, but if you keep it basic there shouldn't be a problem. Decide on a certain number of foundations to test [maybe 3 or so] and try simulating an earthquake.

A block of unknown mass is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 7.00 N/m 2 and undergoes simple harmonic motion with a

KatRina [158]

Answers:

a) $0.80 kg$

b) $2.12 s$

c) $1.093 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$k=7 N/m$ is the spring constant

$A=12.5 cm \frac{1 m}{100 cm}=0.125 m$ is the amplitude of oscillation

$V=32 cm/s=0.32 m/s$ is the velocity of the block when $x=\frac{A}{2}=0.0625 m$

Now let's begin with the answers:

<h3>a) Mass of the block</h3>

We can solve this by the conservation of energy principle:

$U_{o}+K_{o}=U_{f}+K_{f}$ (1)

Where:

$U_{o}=k\frac{A^{2}}{2}$ is the initial potential energy

$K_{o}=0$ is the initial kinetic energy

$U_{f}=k\frac{x^{2}}{2}$ is the final potential energy

$K_{f}=\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}$ is the final kinetic energy

Then:

$k\frac{A^{2}}{2}=k\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}$ (2)

Isolating $m$ :

$m=\frac{k(A^{2}-x^{2})}{V^{2}}$ (3)

$m=\frac{7 N/m((0.125 m)^{2}-(0.0625 m)^{2})}{(0.32 m/s)^{2}}$ (4)

$m=0.80 kg$ (5)

<h3>b) Period</h3>

The period $T$ is given by:

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$ (6)

Substituting (5) in (6):

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{0.80 kg}{7 N/m}}$ (7)

$T=2.12 s$ (8)

<h3>c) Maximum acceleration</h3>

The maximum acceleration $a_{max}$ is when the force is maximum $F_{max}$ , as well :

$F_{max}=m.a_{max}=k.x_{max}$ (9)

Being $x_{max}=A$

Hence:

$m.a_{max}=kA$ (10)

Finding $a_{max}$ :

$a_{max}=\frac{kA}{m}$ (11)

$a_{max}=\frac{(7 N/m)(0.125 m)}{0.80 kg}$ (12)

Finally:

$a_{max}=1.093 m/s^{2}$

A block with mass m =6.4 kg is hung from a vertical spring. When the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.28 m.

Zanzabum

Answer

given,

mass of block (m)= 6.4 Kg

spring is stretched to distance, x = 0.28 m

initial velocity = 5.1 m/s

a) computing weight of spring

k x = m g

$k = \dfrac{mg}{x}$

$k = \dfrac{6.4 \times 9.8}{0.28}$

k = 224 N/m

b) $f = \dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$\omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}= \sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}} = 5.92 \ rad/s$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}}$

$f =0.94\ Hz$

c) $v_b = -v cos \omega t$

$v_b = -5.1 \times cos (5.92 \times 0.42)$

$v_b = 4.04\ m/s$

d) $a_{max} = v \omega$

$a_{max} = 4.04 \times 5.92$

$a_{max} =23.94\ m/s^2$

e) $Y =- A sin (\omega t)$

$A = \dfrac{v}{\omega}$

$A = \dfrac{4.04}{5.92}$

A = 0.682 m

$Y =- 0.682 \times sin (5.92 \times 0.42)$

$Y =- 0.42$

Force = $m \omega^2 |Y|$

= $6.4 \times 5.92^2\times 0.42$

F = 94.20 N
