A mass of 0.75 kilograms is attached to a spring/mass oscillator. A force of 5 newtons is required to stretch the spring 0.5 met

ers. The mass is in a medium that exerts a damping force numerically equivalent to b multiplied by the instantaneous velocity. Write an inequality (using exact values) that describes the values of 'b' for which the system will be overdamped.

Answer:

b > 66.41 kg/s

Explanation:

The spring force F = -kx, where k = spring constant, the damping force f = -bv. The net force F' = F + f

F + f = ma

-kx - bv = ma

-kx -bdx/dt = md²x/dt².

Re-arranging the equation, we have

So, md²x/dt² + bdx/dt + kx = 0

Dividing through by m, we have

d²x/dt² + (b/m)dx/dt + (k/m)x = 0

This is a second-order differential equation. The characteristic equation is thus,

D² + (b/m)D + (k/m) = 0

Using the quadratic formula, we find D.

D = \frac{-(b/m) +/- \sqrt{(b/m)^{2} - 4k/m} }{2}

For an overdamped system,

(b/m)^{2} - 4k/m} >   0

(b/m)^{2} >   4k/m}\\(b/m) >   \sqrt{4k/m}} \\(b/m) >   2\sqrt{k/m}} \\b >   2\sqrt{km}}

Now, k = F/x. Since the weight of the object causes the spring to stretch a distance of 0.5 m, k = mg/x where m = mass of object = 0.75 kg, g = 9.8 m/s² and x = x₀ =0.5 m.

Substituting k = mg/x into the inequality for b, we have

b > 2√{(mg/x₀)m}

b > 2√{(m²g/x₀)}

b > 2m√{g/x₀)}

b > 2 × 0.75 kg√{9.8 m/s²/0.5 m)}

b > 1.5 kg√{19.6/s²)}

b > 1.5 kg × 4.427/s

b > 66.41 kg/s

a mass of 1.00 kg of water at temperature T is poured from a height of 0.100 km into a vessel containing water of the same tempe
Mariana [72]

Answer:

1.34352 kg

Explanation:

m_w = Mass of water falling = 1 kg

h = Height of fall = 0.1 km

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 0.1

c = Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg K

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m_v = Mass of water in the vessel

Here the potential energy will balance the internal energy

m_wgh=m_wc\Delta T+m_vc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh-m_wc\Delta T}{c\Delta T}\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh}{c\Delta T}-m_w\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{1\times 9.81\times 100}{4186\times 0.1}-1\\\Rightarrow m_v=1.34352\ kg

Mass of the water in the vessel is 1.34352 kg

An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move
lions [1.4K]
This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3
