A mass of 0.8 kg is fixed at a vertical spring with an unknown spring constant. When spring is released from rest, it extends to

15cm before it stops. As the system oscillates with Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) the weight is pulled down 20cm further downward and being released.
1. What is the spring constant?
2. What is the total energy of the system?
3. What is the angular frequency of spring?
4. What is the velocity of the system at x=10cm below equilibrium position? ​

Answer:

1) k = 52 N/m

2) E = 1.0 J

3) ω = 8.1 rad/s

4) v = 1.4 m/s

Though asked for a velocity, we can only supply magnitude (speed) because we don't have enough information to determine direction.

If it happens to be the first time it is at y = - 10 cm after release, the velocity is upward.

Explanation:

Assuming the initial setup is after all transients are eliminated.

kx = mg

k = mg/x = 0.8(9.8) / 0.15

k = 52.26666.... ≈ 52 N/m

E = ½kA² = ½(52)(0.20²) = 1.045333... ≈ 1.0 J

ω = √(k/m) = √(52 / 0.8) = 8.0829... ≈ 8.1 rad/s

½mv² = ½kA² - ½kx²

v = √(k(A² - x²)/m) = √(52(0.20² - 0.10²)/0.8) = 1.39999... ≈ 1.4 m/s

Standing on the roof of a (42.0+A) m tall building, you throw a ball straight up with an initial speed of (14.5+B) m/s. If the b
RSB [31]
First, we must find the vertical distance traveled upwards by the ball due to the throw. For this, we will use the formula:

2as = v² - u²

Because the final velocity v is 0 in such cases

s = -u²/2a; because both u and a are downwards, the negative sign cancels

s = 14.5² / 2*9.81
s = 10.72 meters

Next, to find the time taken to reach the ground, we need the height above the ground. This is:
45 + 10.72 = 55.72 m

We will use the formula 
s = ut + 0.5at²

to find the time taken with the initial velocity u = 0.

55.72 = 0.5 * 9.81 * t²

t = 3.37 seconds

Phobos's Orbit. Phobos orbits Mars at a distance of 9,380 km from the center of the planet and has a period of 0.3189 days. Assu
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relation between time period of moon in the orbit around a planet can be given by the following relation .

T² = 4 π² R³ / GM

G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the planet , R is radius of the orbit and T is time period of the moon .

Substituting the values in the equation

(.3189 x 24 x 60 x 60 s)²  = 4 x 3.14² x ( 9380 x 10³)³ / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M)

759.167 x 10⁶ = 8.25 x 10²⁰ x 39.43 / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M )

M = .06424  x 10²⁵

= 6.4 x 10²³ kg .

15) Very cold climates occur at Earth's North and South Poles because the polar regions
Gwar [14]

Because the polar regions receive low-angle insolation.

Insolation is the amount of solar radiation received by a given area. The Sun is always low on the horizon. The low Sun angle makes the beam of solar radiation to travel a longer distance from upper troposphere to reach earth's surface as compared to when it is directly overhead. In this case, the radiations are scattered and reflected more by the atmosphere and spread over a larger area. Thus, the intensity of solar radiation is very less at polar regions than near the equatorial region. This is the reason of very cold climates at polar regions.
