A book that weighs 19 Newtons sits on a table. With what force

Answer:

We know there's two forces acting on a book while it sits on a table:the force of gravity pulling it down, and the normal force of the table acting upward on the book. The book isn't accelerating while it sits there. That's because the weight of the book is being counteracted by the normal force of the table.

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.

A spring with spring constant 11.5 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A 490 g ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to res

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The time constant is $\tau = 17.5 \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The spring constant is $k = 11.5 \ N/m$

The mass of the ball is $m_b = 490 \ g = 0.49 \ kg$

The amplitude of the oscillation t the beginning is $x = 6.70 cm = 0.067 \ m$

The amplitude after time t is $x_t = 2.20 cm = 0.022 \ m$

The number of oscillation is $N = 30$

Generally the time taken to attain the second amplitude is mathematically represented as

$t = N * T$ Here T is the period of oscillation

$t = N * 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

=> $t = 30 * 2 * 3.142 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.490}{11.5} }$

=> $t = 38.88 \ s$

Generally the amplitude at time t is mathematically represented as

$x(t) = x e^{-\frac{at}{2m} }$

Here a is the damping constant so

at $t = 38.88 \ s$ , $x_t = 2.20 cm = 0.022 \ m$

So

$0.022 = 0.067 e^{-\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

=> $0.3284 = e^{-\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

taking natural log of both sides

=> $ln(0.3284 ) = -\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

=> $a = 0.028$

Generally the time constant is mathematically represented as

$\tau = \frac{m}{a}$

=> $\tau = \frac{0.490}{ 0.028}$

=> $\tau = 17.5 \ s$
