Answer:

a) 37.70 m/s

b)710.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that ;

Mass of object = 2 kg

Radius of the motion = 2m

Frequency of motion = 3 rev/s

The formula to apply is;

v= 2πrf   where v is linear speed

v = 2×π×2×3 =12π = 37.70 m/s

Centripetal acceleration is given as;

a= 4×π²×r×f²  

a= 4×π²×2×3²

a=710.6 m/s²

A train moving with a velocity of 42.9 km/hour North, increases its speed with a uniform acceleration of 0.250 m/s^2 North until
ankoles [38]

Answer:

3658.24m

Explanation:

Hello!

the first thing that we must be clear about is that the train moves with constant acceleration

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

\frac {Vf^{2}-Vo^2}{2.a} =X

Vf = final speed =160km/h=44.4m/s

Vo = Initial speed =42.9km/h=11.92m/s

A = acceleration =0.25m/s^2

X = displacement

solving

\frac {44.4^{2}-11.92^2}{2.(0.25)} =X\\X=3658.24m

the distance traveled by the train is 3658.24m

A satellite orbits earth with a mean altitude of 361 km. If the orbit is circular, what are the satellite's time period and spee
Advocard [28]

Answer:

v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s = 7690 m/s

T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h

Explanation:

In order for the satellite to orbit the earth, the force of gravitation on satellite must be equal to the centripetal force acting on it:

F_{gravitation}= F_{centripetal}\\\\\frac{GM_{s} M_{E}}{r^2}  = \frac{M_{s} v^2}{r}\\\\\frac{GM_{E}}{r} = v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{E}}{r} } \\\\

where,

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Me = Mass of Earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

r = distance between the center of Earth and Satellite = Radius of Earth + Altitude = 6.371 x 10⁶ m + 0.361 x 10⁶ m = 6.732 x 10⁶ m

v = orbital speed = ?

Therefore,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 x 10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(5.97 x 10^{24} kg)}{6.732 x 10^6 m} }\\\\

<u>v = 7.69 x 10³ m/s</u>

For time period satellite completes one revolution around the earth. It means that the distance covered by satellite is equal to circumference of circle at the given altitude.

So, its orbital speed can be given as:

v = \frac{Circumference of Circle at Given Altitude}{T}\\\\v =  \frac{2\pi r}{T}\\\\

where,

T = Time Period of Satellite = ?

Therefore,

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}\\\\T = \frac{(2\pi )(6.732 x 10^6 m}{7.69 x 10^3 m/s}\\\\

<u>T = 5500 s = 91.67 min = 1.53 h</u>

A block with mass m =6.4 kg is hung from a vertical spring. When the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.28 m.
Zanzabum

Answer

given,

mass of block (m)= 6.4 Kg

spring is stretched to distance, x = 0.28 m

initial velocity = 5.1 m/s

a) computing weight of spring

    k x = m g

k = \dfrac{mg}{x}

k = \dfrac{6.4 \times 9.8}{0.28}

      k = 224 N/m

b) f = \dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}

    \omega = \sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}= \sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}} = 5.92 \ rad/s

   f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

   f = \dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{224}{6.4}}

  f =0.94\ Hz

c)  v_b = -v cos \omega t

    v_b = -5.1 \times cos (5.92 \times 0.42)

    v_b = 4.04\ m/s

d)  a_{max} = v \omega

    a_{max} = 4.04 \times 5.92

    a_{max} =23.94\ m/s^2

e)  Y =- A sin (\omega t)

    A = \dfrac{v}{\omega}

    A = \dfrac{4.04}{5.92}

        A = 0.682 m

    Y =- 0.682 \times sin (5.92 \times 0.42)

    Y =- 0.42

Force =m \omega^2 |Y|

          =6.4 \times 5.92^2\times 0.42

F = 94.20 N
