When the displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position, what fraction of the

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The ratio is KE : TM = 0.75

Explanation:

from the question we are told that

The displacement of a mass on a spring in simple harmonic motion is A/2 from the equilibrium position

Generally the total mechanical energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

$TM = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2$

Here k is the spring constant , A is the total displacement of the the mass from maximum compression to maximum extension of the spring

Generally this total mechanical energy is mathematically represented as

$TM = KE + PE$

=> $KE = TM - PE$

Here the potential energy of the mass is mathematically represented as

$PE = \frac{1}{ 2} * k * [ x ]^2$

Here x is the displacement of the mass from maximum compression or extension of the spring to equilibrium position and the value is

$x = \frac{A}{2}$

$PE = \frac{1}{ 2} * k * [ \frac{A}{2} ]^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2 - \frac{1}{2} * k * [\frac{A}{2} ]^2$

=> $KE = \frac{1}{2} * k * A^2 - \frac{1}{8} * k * A ^2$

=> $KE = 0.375 * k * A^2$

So the ratio of $KE : TM$ is mathematically represented as

$\frac{KE}{TM} = \frac{0.375 k A^2 }{0.5 k A^2}$

=> $\frac{KE}{TM} = 0.75$

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is - 2.10 ×10−6C/m2. A proton is shot straight away from the plane at 2.

inn [45]

Explanation:

Formula to calculate electric field because of the plate is as follows.

E = $\frac{\sigma}{2 \times \epsilon_{o}}$

= $\frac{2.10 \times 10^{-6}}{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}$

= $1.18 \times 10^{5} N/C$

Now, we will consider that equilibrium of forces are present there. So,

ma = qE

a = $\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 1.18 \times 10^{5}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}$

= $1.13 \times 10^{13} m/s^2$

According to the third equation of motion,

$v^{2} = 2 \times a \times d$

or, d = $\frac{v^{2}}{2d}$

= $\frac{(2.4 \times 10^{6})^{2}}{2 \times 1.13 \times 10^{13}}$

= 0.254 m

Thus, we can conclude that the proton will travel 0.254 m before reaching its turning point.

At an altitude of 5000 m the rocket's acceleration has increased to 6.9 m/s2 . What mass of fuel has it burned?

sergey [27]

1) Initial upward acceleration: $6.0 m/s^2$

2) Mass of burned fuel: $0.10\cdot 10^4 kg$

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the rocket at the beginning:

- The force of gravity, of magnitude $F_g = mg$ , in the downward direction, where

$m=1.9\cdot 10^4 kg$ is the rocket's mass

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

- The thrust of the motor, T, in the upward direction, of magnitude

$T=3.0\cdot 10^5 N$

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on the rocket must be equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration, so we can write:

$T-mg=ma$ (1)
