Answer:

When you have a cloudy night, the clouds prevent heat from escaping through the atmosphere and into space.

The clouds act like a blanket and trap the heat it, and that is why every time you have a cloudy night, it is always warmer than a clear night.

A damping force affects the vibration of a spring so that the displacement of the spring is given by y = e−4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t)

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Average velocity = dy/dt = 4sin2t(2t+3)-4cos2t(6t+1)e^-4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t).

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change in displacement.

Velocity = change in displacement/time taken

Given the displacement of the string as;

y = e^−4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t).

To get the average velocity, we will find the derivative of the displacement with respect to time.

Using function of a function to solve this;

Let u = 4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t)... (1)

y = e^-u... (2)

Differentiating both functions with respect to their variables we have;

dy/du = -e^-u

du/dt is gotten using the product rule to have;

du/dt = 4t(-2sin2t+6cos2t)+4(cos2t+3sin2t)

Opening up the bracket we have;

du/dt = -8tsin2t+24tcos2t+4cos2t+12sin2t

Collecting like terms;

-8tsin2t+12sin2t+24tcos2t+4cos2t

du/dt = -4sin2t(2t-3)+4cos2t(6t+1)

dy/dt = dy/du × du/dt

dy/dt = -e^-u × -4sin2t(2t+3)+4cos2t(6t+1)

Substituting u = 4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t) into dy/dt, we will have;

dy/dt = -e^-4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t) × -4sin2t(2t+3)+4cos2t(6t+1)

dy/dt = 4sin2t(2t+3)-4cos2t(6t+1)e^-4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t).

The average velocity of the wave function therefore give us;

dy/dt = 4sin2t(2t+3)-4cos2t(6t+1)e^-4t(cos 2t + 3 sin 2t).

How acceleration and gravitation (acceleration) are related/different?

mihalych1998 [28]

The source of acceleration (without gravity) is transfer of energy from one object to another or change of its own energy structure so that one of its components changes into increasing energy of motion.
But gravity occurs with no measurable energy transfer nor is the gravitating mass changing its energy structure in order to produce gravity.
If the cause of acceleration and gravity is not related at all is the Equivalence principle just a coincidence that the resulting effects are physically identical and indistinguishable

A ball is dropped from rest at a point 12 m above the ground into a smooth, frictionless chute. The ball exits the chute 2 m abo

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

29,7 m

Explanation:

We need to devide the problem in two parts:

A) Energy

B) MRUV

<u>Energy:</u>

Since no friction between pint (1) and (2), then the energy conservatets:

Energy = constant ----> Ek(cinética) + Ep(potencial) = constant

Ek1 + Ep1 = Ek2 + Ep2

Ek1 = 0 ; because V1 is zero (the ball is "dropped")

Ep1 = m*g*H1

Ep2= m*g*H2

Then:

Ek2 = m*g*(H1-H2)

By definition of cinetic energy:

m*(V2)²/2 = m*g*(H1-H2) ---> $V2 = \sqrt{(2*g*(H1-H2)}$

Replaced values: V2 = 14,0 m/s

The decomposition of the velocity (V2), gives a for the horizontal component:

V2x = V2*cos(α)

Then the traveled distance is:

X = V2*cos(α)*t.... but what time?

The time what takes the ball hit the ground.

Since: Y3 - Y2 = V2*t + (1/2)*(-g)*t²

In the vertical axis:

Y3 = 0 ; Y2 = H2 = 2 m

Reeplacing:

-2 = 14*t + (1/2)*(-9,81)*t²

solving the ecuation, the only positive solution is:

t = 2,99 sec ≈ 3 sec

Then, for the distance:

X = V2*cos(α)*t = (14 m/s)*(cos45°)*(3sec) ≈ 29,7 m
