Answer:

1.241/s

Explanation:

From this question, we have the following information:

Mass of oscillator = 310

The time Period, t = 0.180

Decrease = 20 %

Amplitude of oscillation has the formula

A = Aoe^yt

1-20% = 80%

= 0.80

Y x 0.18 = -ln(0.8)

= 0.18Y = 0.2234

Y = 0.2233/0.18

Y = 1.241/s

The damping constant y is Therefore equal to 1.241s

Can someone explain how exactly to calculate the net force? Do you subtract the smaller number from the larger number? Any help
aleksley [76]

Explanation:

Let's say right is positive and left is negative.

F₁ = -150 N

F₂ = 220 N

Fnet = F₁ + F₂

Fnet = -150 N + 220 N

Fnet = 70 N

The magnitude of Fnet is 70 N, and since it's positive, the direction is to the right.

And since Fnet isn't 0, the force is unbalanced and the motion is changing.

How much displacement will a spring with a constant of 120N / m achieve if it is stretched by a force of 60N?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

There's a formula for this:

F = k*displacement

F being force, k being the spring constant, and displacement being the change in x

We are given the force and the spring constant, so this is essentially isolating the Δx term. Do 60N/120N per meter. The newtons cancel out and you get a final answer of Δx = 0.5 meters
