You haven't said how much power the stereo uses. It matters !
Whatever that number is, the maximum hours per month is
(3460) divided by (the # of watts the stereo uses when it's playing) .
You measure the total distance the bike travels, and the total time it takes to travel that distance. You then divide the distance by the time
Answer:
g_x = 3.0 m / s^2
Explanation:
Given:
- Change in length of spring [email protected] = 22.6 cm
- Time taken for 11 oscillations t = 19.0 s
Find:
- The value of gravitational free fall g_x at plant X:
Solution:
- We will assume a simple harmonic motion of the mass for which Time is:
T = 2*pi*sqrt(k / m ) ...... 1
- Sum of forces in vertical direction @equilibrium is zero:
F_net = k*x - m*g_x = 0
(k / m) = (g_x / x) .... 2
- substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1:
2*pi / T = sqrt ( g_x / x )
g_x = (2*pi / T )^2 * x
- Evaluate g_x:
g_x = (2*pi / (19 / 11) )^2 * 0.226
g_x = 3.0 m / s^2
