Answer 1

Answer:

(a) 0.993 s

(b) 14.0 N/m

(c) -3.02 m/s

(d) -6.01 m/s²

Explanation:

(a) The block's position can be modeled as a cosine wave:

x(t) = A cos(ωt)

where A is the amplitude (in this case, 50 cm) and ω is the angular frequency.

At t = 0.200 s, x(t) = 15.0 cm.

15.0 cm = 50.0 cm cos((0.200 s) ω)

0.3 = cos((0.2 s) ω)

1.266 rad = (0.2 s) ω

ω = 6.33 rad/s

The period is:

T = (2π rad) (1 s / 6.33 rad)

T = 0.993

(b) For a spring-mass system, ω = √(k/m).  The mass of the block is 0.350 kg, so:

ω = √(k/m)

6.33 rad/s = √(k / 0.350 kg)

6.33 rad/s = √(k / 0.350 kg)

40.1 rad/s² = k / 0.350 kg

k = 14.0 N/m

(c) Energy is conserved:

EE₀ = EE + KE

½ kx₀² = ½ kx² + ½ mv²

kx₀² = kx² + mv²

(14.0 N/m) (0.50 m)² = (14.0 N/m) (0.15 m)² + (0.35 kg) v²

v = -3.02 m/s

Alternatively, we can take the derivative of our position equation:

v(t) = -Aω sin(ωt)

v = -(0.50 m) (6.33 rad/s) sin((6.33 rad/s) (0.2 s))

v = -3.02 m/s

(d) Sum of forces on the block:

∑F = ma

-kx = ma

a = -kx / m

a = -(14.0 N/m) (0.15 m) / (0.350 kg)

a = -6.01 m/s²

Alternatively, we can take the derivative of our velocity equation:

a(t) = -Aω² cos(ωt)

a = -(0.50 m) (6.33 rad/s)² cos((6.33 rad/s) (0.2 s))

a = -6.01 m/s²

Answer 2

Answer:

"Every composite number can be factorized as a product of primes, and this factorization is unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur"
