In damped harmonic oscillation, the amplitude of oscillation becomes one third after 2 second. If A0 is initial amplitude of osc
Harman [31]

Answer:

A=\frac{A_0}{\sqrt 3}

Explanation:

Initial amplitude=A_0

We are given that

Amplitude after 2 s=A=\frac{1}{3}A_0

We have to find the amplitude after 1 s.

We know that amplitude at any time t

A=A_0e^{-\alpha t}

Using the formula

\frac{A_0}{3}=A_0e^{-2\alpha}

\frac{1}{3}=e^{-2\alpha}

3=e^{2\alpha}

ln 3=2\alpha

\alpha =\frac{ln 3}{2}=ln\sqrt 3

e^{\alpha}=\sqrt 3}

When t=1 s

A=A_0e^{-\alpha}=\frac{A_0}{\sqrt 3}

A skier starts from rest and accelerates down a slope 2 at 23 m/s^2. How much time required for the skier to reach a speed of 9.
gayaneshka [121]

The skier's speed at time <em>t</em> is

<em>v</em> = (23 m/s²) <em>t</em>

To reach a speed of 9.3 m/s, the skier would need

9.3 m/s = (23 m/s²) <em>t</em>

<em>t</em> = (9.3 m/s) / (23 m/s²)

<em>t</em> ≈ 0.404 s

A wave is incident on the surface of a mirror at an angle of 41° with the normal. what can you say about its angle of reflection
Umnica [9.8K]

It's angle of reflection must be 41 degrees

we know, by the first law of reflection that angle of incidence is always equal to angle of reflection..........

A 1.150 kg air-track glider is attached to each end of the track by two coil springs. It takes a horizontal force of 0.900 N to
shutvik [7]

k = 5.29

a = 0.78m/s²

KE = 0.0765J

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass of air tracker, m = 1.15kg

Force, F = 0.9N

distance, x = 0.17m

(a) Effective spring constant, k = ?

Force = kx

0.9 = k X0.17

k = 5.29

(b) Maximum acceleration, m = ?

We know,

Force = ma

0.9N = 1.15 X a

a = 0.78 m/s²

c) kinetic energy, KE of the glider at x = 0.00 m.

The work done as the glider was moved = Average force * distance

This work is converted into kinetic energy when the block is released. The maximum kinetic energy occurs when the glider has moved 0.17m back to position x = 0  

As the glider is moved 0.17m, the average force = ½ * (0 + 0.9)

Work = Kinetic energy

KE = 0.450 * 0.17

KE = 0.0765J
