Can someone define 'work' for me please? I looked it up but there are a lot of different answers. The physics type, not a job :)

Answer:

in physics, work is the energy transferred to or from an object via the application of force along a displacement. In its simplest form, it is often represented as the product of force and displacement.

oscillating spring mass systems can be used to experimentally determine an unknown mass without using a mass balance. a student

12345 [234]

Answer:

Mass, m = 6.18 kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Frequency, F = 10 Hz

Spring constant, k = 250 N/m

We know that pie, π = 22/7

To find the mass, we would use the following formula;

F = 1/2π√(k/m)

Where;

F is the frequency of oscillation.

k is the spring constant.

m is the mass of the spring.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

10 = 1/2 * 22/7 * √250/m

10 = 22/14 * √250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

140 = 22 * √250/m

Dividing both sides by 22, we have;

140/22 = √250/m

6.36 = √250/m

Taking the square of both sides, we have;

6.36² = (√250/m)²

40.45 = 250/m

Cross-multiplying, we have;

40.45m = 250

Mass, m = 250/40.45

Mass, m = 6.18 kg

How far should the second antenna be moved in order to receive a minimum signal from a station that broadcasts at 99.4 MHz?

raketka [301]

Answer:

So the distance of the antenna from the station will be 3.018 m

Explanation:

We have given the frequency of the broadcast $f=99.4MHz=99.4\times 10^4Hz$

The speed of light $c=3\times 10^8m/sec$

The distance of the antenna to receive a minimum signal from the station is given by $d=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^{8}}{99.4\times 10^6}=3.018m$

So the distance of the antenna from the station will be 3.018 m

g A cylinder of mass m is free to slide in a vertical tube. The kinetic friction force between the cylinder and the walls of the

sdas [7]

Answer:

The vertical distance is $d = \frac{2}{k} *[mg + f]$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the cylinder is m

The kinetic frictional force is f

Generally from the work energy theorem

$E = P + W_f$

Here E the the energy of the spring which is increasing and this is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{1}{2} * k * d^2$

Here k is the spring constant

P is the potential energy of the cylinder which is mathematically represented as

$P = mgd$

And

$W_f$ is the workdone by friction which is mathematically represented as

$W_f = f * d$

$\frac{1}{2} * k * d^2 = mgd + f * d$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * k * d^2 = d[mg + f ]$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * k * d = [mg + f ]$

=> $d = \frac{2}{k} *[mg + f]$
