Answer:

The equation of motion is x(t)=-\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}

Explanation:

Lets calculate

The weight attached to the spring is 24 pounds

Acceleration due to gravity is 32ft/s^2

Assume x , is spring stretched length is ,4 inches

Converting the length inches into feet x=\frac{4}{12} =\frac{1}{3}feet

The weight (W=mg) is balanced by restoring force ks at equilibrium position

mg=kx

W=kx ⇒ k=\frac{W}{x}

The spring constant , k=\frac{24}{1/3}

                            = 72

If the mass is displaced from its equilibrium position by an amount x, then the differential equation is

    m\frac{d^2x}{dt} +kx=0

    \frac{3}{4} \frac{d^2x}{dt} +72x=0

  \frac{d^2x}{dt} +96x=0

Auxiliary equation is, m^2+96=0

                                 m=\sqrt{-96}

                               =\frac{+}{} i4\sqrt{6}

Thus , the solution is x(t)=c_1cos4\sqrt{6t}+c_2sin4\sqrt{6t}

                                 x'(t)=-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6t}+c_2  4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6t}

The mass is released from the rest x'(0) = 0

                    =-4\sqrt{6c_1} sin4\sqrt{6(0)}+c_2 4\sqrt{6} cos4\sqrt{6(0)} =0

                                                    c_2 4\sqrt{6} =0

                                     c_2=0

Therefore , x(t)=c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6t}

Since , the mass is released from the rest from 4 inches

                    x(0)= -4 inches

c_1 cos 4\sqrt{6(0)} =-\frac{4}{12} feet

   c_1=-\frac{1}{3} feet

Therefore , the equation of motion is  -\frac{1}{3} cos4\sqrt{6t}

A garrafa térmica (também conhecida como "vaso de Dewar") é um dispositivo extremamente útil para conservar, no seu interior, co
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

A opção A está correta.

O sistema formado pela garrafa térmica e a água perde 400 cal de calor para o meio ambiente.

Option A is correct.

The system formed by the thermos and the water loses 400 cal of heat to the environment.

Explanation:

Quando a temperatura de um sistema reduz, fica claro que o sistema perdeu calor ou energia térmica. Como a temperatura é um dos indicadores mais claros disso, esta conclusão é hermética e correta.

Mas, para saber a quantidade de calor perdida para o meio ambiente, agora fazemos alguns cálculos de energia térmica.

Transferência de calor de ou para o sistema de água e garrafa térmica = c × ΔT

c = capacidade térmica do sistema de água e garrafa térmica = 80 cal /°C

ΔT = Alteração da temperatura do sistema de água e garrafa térmica = (temperatura final) - (temperatura inicial) = 55 - 60 = -5°C

Calor transferido = 80 × -5 = -400 cal.

O sinal de menos mostra que o calor é transferido para fora do sistema, ou seja, o calor é perdido no sistema.

Espero que isto ajude!!!

English Translation

The thermos (also known as "Dewar vase") is an extremely useful device to conserve bodies (essentially liquid) at high temperatures, minimizing energy exchanges with the environment, which is generally colder. A thermos contains water at 60 o C. The thermos + water set has a thermal capacity of C = 80 cal / o C. The system is placed on a table and, after a considerable period of time, its temperature decreases to 55 o C. In this case, it is concluded that the system formed by the thermos and the water inside:

a) lost 400 cal. B) gained 404cal. C) lost 4 850 cal. D) gained 4 850 cal. E) did not exchange heat with the external environment.

Solution

When a system's temperature reduces, it is clear to conclude that the system has lost heat or thermal energy. Since temperature is one of clearest indicators of this, this conclusion is airtight and correct.

But, to know the amount of heat lost to the environment, we now do some thermal energy calculations.

Heat transferrred from or to the water and thermos system = c × ΔT

c = heat capacity of the water and thermos system = 80 cal/°C

ΔT = Change in temperature of the water and thermos system = (final temperature) - (initial temperature)

= 55 - 60 = -5°C

Heat transferred = 80 × -5 = -400 cal.

The minus sign shows that the heat is transferred out of the system, that is, the heat is lost from the system.

Hope this Helps!!!

An electron in orbit around a (one proton) nucleus has a speed of about 106 m/s. Deduce the equivalent current due to the motion
dedylja [7]

Answer:

(a) -4.8\times 10^{-4}A (B) 4.22\times 106{-24}A/m^2

Explanation:

We have given the the speed of the electron =10^6 m/sec

The time period of the electron is given by T=\frac{2\pi r}{v} where r is the Bohr radius, which is equal to 5.29\times 10^{-11}m

So time period T=\frac{2\times \pi \times 5.29\times 10^{-11}}{10^6}=3.324\times 10^{-16}m/sec

(A) We know that current i=\frac{q}{T}=\frac{-e}{T}=\frac{-1.6\times 10^{-19}}{3.324\times 10^{-16}}=-4.8\times 10^{-4}A

(B) Magnetic moment is given by \mu =IA , where I is current and A is area

So \mu =IA=-4.8\times 10^{-4}\times 3.14\times (5.29\times 10^{-11})^2=4.22\times 10^{-24}A/m^2
