Answer:

25.59 m/s²

Explanation:

Using the formula for  the force of static friction:

f_s = \mu_s N --- (1)

where;

f_s = static friction force

\mu_s = coefficient of static friction

N = normal force

Also, recall that:

F = mass × acceleration

Similarly, N = mg

here, due to min. acceleration of the car;

N = ma_{min}

From equation (1)

f_s = \mu_s ma_{min}

However, there is a need to balance the frictional force by using the force due to the car's acceleration between the quarter and the wall of the rocket.

Thus,

F = f_s

mg = \mu_s ma_{min}

a_{min} = \dfrac{mg }{ \mu_s m}

a_{min} = \dfrac{g }{ \mu_s }

where;

\mu_s = 0.383 and g = 9.8 m/s²

a_{min} = \dfrac{9.8 \ m/s^2 }{0.383 }

\mathbf{a_{min}= 25.59 \ m/s^2}

A spring attached to the ceiling is stretched 2.45 meters by a four kilogram mass. If the mass is set in motion in a medium that
denpristay [2]

Answer:

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x is the required differential equation.

Explanation:

Since the spring force F = kx where k is the spring constant and x its extension = 2.45 equals the weight of the 4 kg mass,

F = mg

kx = mg

k = mg/x

= 4 kg × 9.8 m/s²/2.45 m

= 39.2 kgm/s²/2.45 m

= 16 N/m

Now the drag force f = 16v where v is the velocity of the mass.

We now write an equation of motion for the forces on the mass. So,

F + f = ma (since both the drag force and spring force are in the same direction)where a = the acceleration of the mass

-kx - 16v = 4a

-16x - 16v = 4a

16x + 16v = -4a

4x + 4v = -a where v = dx/dt and a = d²x/dt²

4x + 4dx/dt = -d²x/dt²

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x which is the required differential equation
