The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A mass is attached to the end of a spring and set into oscillation on a horizontal frictionless surface by releasing it from a compressed position. The record of time is started when the oscillating mass first passes through the equilibrium position, and the position of the mass at any time is described by x = (4.7 cm)sin[(7.9 rad/s)πt].

Determine the following:

(a) frequency of the motion

(b) period of the motion

(c) amplitude of the motion

(d) first time after t = 0  that the object reaches the position x = 2.6 cm

Solution :

Given equation : x = (4.7 cm)sin[(7.9 rad/s)πt].

Comparing it with the general equation of simple harmonic motion,

 x = A sin (ωt + Φ)

  A = 4.7 cm

  ω = 7.9 π

a). Therefore, frequency, $f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi}$

                                             $=\frac{7.9 \pi}{2 \pi}$

                                             = 3.95 Hz

b). The period, $T=\frac{1}{f}$

                        $T=\frac{1}{3.95}

                            = 0.253 seconds

c). Amplitude is A = 4.7 cm

d). We have,

    x = A sin (ωt + Φ)

    $x_t=4.7 \sin (7.9 \pi t)$

    $2.6 = 4.7 \sin (7.9 \pi t)$

     $\sin (7.9 \pi t) = \frac{26}{47}$

     $7.9 \pi t = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{26}{47}\right)$

          Hence, t = 0.0236 seconds.

A local AM radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 696 KHz. Calculate the energy of the frequency at which it is broadcasting
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

E=4.61\times 10^{-28}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The frequency of local AM radio station, f = 696 KHz = 696000 Hz

We need to find the energy of the frequency at which it is broadcasting.

We know that,

Energy of a wave, E = hf

Where

h is Planck's constant

Put all the values,

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 696000\\\\=4.61\times 10^{-28}\ J

So, the energy of the wave is equal to4.61\times 10^{-28}\ J.

A satellite of mass m is in a circular orbit of radius R2 around a spherical planet of radius R1 made of a material with density
Anit [1.1K]

Answer: The gravitational force Fg exerted on the orbit by the planet is Fg = G 4/3πr3rhom/ (R1 + d+ R2)^2

Explanation:

Gravitational Force Fg = GMm/r2----1

Where G is gravitational constant

M Mass of the planet, m mass of the orbit and r is the distance between the masses.

Since the circular orbit move around the planet, it means they do not touch each other.

The distance between two points on the circumference of the two massesb is given by d, while the distance from the radius of each mass to the circumferences are R1 and R2 from the question.

Total distance r= (R1 + d + R2)^2---2

Recall, density rho =

Mass M/Volume V

Hence, mass of planet = rho × V

But volume of a sphere is 4/3πr3

Therefore,

Mass M of planet = rho × 4/3πr3

=4/3πr3rho in kg

From equation 1 and 2

Fg = G 4/3πr3rhom/ (R1 + d+ R2)^2

Once a baseball has been hit into the air, what forces are acting upon it? How can you tell that any forces are acting upon the
Tom [10]
Well, its in the air, so the air is "upon" the ball. and when it comes down...you catch it, and throw it, and get someone out, and win the game, and just keep doing that, and boooommm you're and pro baseball player. Life is good

How do you solve this???
Tom [10]
Rt= ΣR = 40Ω
Vt= 80V
It= 80V/40Ω= 2A
V1= 15Ω*2A= 30V
V2= 20Ω*2A= 40V
V3= 5Ω*2A= 10V
