Answer:

a)  t = 2.0 s,  b)  x_f = - 24.56 m,  Δx = 16.56 m

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics, the relationship of position and time is indicated

          x = 5 t³ - 9t² -24 t - 8

a) ask when the velocity is zero

speed is defined by

         v = \frac{dx}{dt}

let's perform the derivative

        v = 15 t² - 18t - 24

        0 = 15 t² - 18t - 24

let's solve the quadratic equation

      t = \frac{18 \pm \sqrt{18^2 + 4 \ 15 \ 24}  }{2 \ 15}

       t = \frac{18 \pm 42}{30}

       t1 = -0.8 s

      t2 = 2.0 s

the time has to be positive therefore the correct answer is t = 2.0 s

b) the position and distance traveled for a = 0

acceleration is defined by

       a = dv / dt

       a = 30 t - 18

       a = 0

       30 t = 18

       t = 18/30

       t = 0.6 s

we substitute this time in the expression of the position

       

       x = 5 0.6³ - 9 0.6² - 24 0.6 - 8

       x = 1.08 - 3.24 - 14.4 - 8

       x = -24.56 m

we see that all the movement is in one dimension so the distance traveled is the change in position between t = 0 and t = 0.6 s

the position for t = 0

       x₀ = -8 m

the position for t = 0.6 s

      x_f = - 24.56 m

the distance

     ΔX = x_f - x₀

     Δx = | -24.56 -(-8) |

     Δx = 16.56 m

A block weighs 15 n and is suspended from a spring that is attached to the ceiling. the spring stretches by 0.075 m from its uns
Illusion [34]

We can salve the problem by using the formula:

F=kx

where F is the force applied, k is the spring constant and x is the stretching of the spring.


From the first situation we can calculate the spring constant, which is given by the ratio between the force applied and the stretching of the spring:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{15 N}{0.075 m}=200 N/m


By using the value of the spring constant we calculated in the first step, we can calculate the new stretching of the spring when a force of 33 N is applied:

x=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{33 N}{200 N/m}=0.165 m

What are the differences between the practical and the ideal pendulum​
ankoles [38]

lf a heavy point mass is suspended by a weightless, inextensible and perfectly flexible string from a rigid support, then this arrangement is called simple pendulum.

In practice, however, these requirements cannot be fulfilled. So we use a practical pendulum.

A practical pendulum consists of a small metallic solid sphere suspended by a fine silk thread from a rigid support. This is the practical simple pendulum which is nearest to the ideal simple pendulum.

Note :

The metallic sphere is called the bob.

When the bob is displaced slightly to one side from its mean position and released, it oscillates about its mean position in a vertical plane.
