6 0

Polarizing filters: used to show light has some properties of a wave in that way of property is that light can be thought of as traveling forward in waves, with the <span>wave. sorry if this is too late but google is good</span>

A diver makes 1.0 revolutions on the way from a 9.2-m-high platform to the water. Assuming zero initial vertical velocity, find

____ [38]

Answer:

Average angular velocity ≈ 4.59 rad/s

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

H = ut + (1/2)t² ............................ equation 1.

Where H= height, u = initial velocity(m/s), g = acceleration due to gravity(m/s²), t = time(s) u= 0 ∴ ut =0

H =(1/2)gt².................................... equation 2.

making t² the subject of the relation in equation 2,

∴ t² = 2H/g

Where H = 9.2 m, g= 9.8 m/s

∴ t² = ( 2×9.2)/9.8

t = √(2 × 9.2/9.8) = √(18.4/9.8)

t = 1.37 s.

The average angular velocity = θ/t

Where θ = is the number of revolution that the diver makes, t = time

θ = 1 rev.

Since 1 rev = 2π (rad)

t = 1.37 s

Average angular velocity = 2π/t

π = 3.143

Average angular velocity = (2×3.143)/1.37 = 6.286/1.37

Average angular velocity ≈ 4.59 rad/s

A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block (m = 0.50 kg) attached to a spring (k = 128 N/m). The block is pulled a certain

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

0.5 m

14.00595

8 m/s, 0.0625 s

5.71314 m/s

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 128 N/m

A = Amplitude

E = Energy in spring = 16 J

Energy in spring is given by

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{k}}\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 16}{128}}\\\Rightarrow A=0.5\ m$

The amplitude is 0.5 m

Time period is given by

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5}{128}}\\\Rightarrow T=0.39269\ s$

Number of oscillations is given by

$N=\dfrac{5.5}{0.39269}\\\Rightarrow N=14.00595$

The number of oscillations is 14.00595

For maximum speed

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=16\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16\times 2}{0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=8\ m/s$

The maximum speed is 8 m/s

For a distance of 0.5 m which is the amplitude

$Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}\\\Rightarrow Time=\dfrac{0.5}{8}\\\Rightarrow Time=0.0625\ s$

The time taken would be 0.0625 s

The maximum kinetic energy is equal to the mechanical energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=16$

At x = 0.35 m

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}m}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{16-\dfrac{1}{2}128\times 0.35^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}0.5}}\\\Rightarrow v=5.71314\ m/s$

The speed of the block is 5.71314 m/s
