Answer:

a)  the total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of its motion = 13.60 cm

b) The maximum speed is = 102.54 cm/s

The maximum speed occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

c)  The maximum magnitude of the acceleration of the sphere is = 30.93 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

Explanation:

Given that :

Frequency (f) = 4.80 Hz

Amplitude (A) = 3.40 cm

a)

The total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of simple harmonic motion is:

d = 4A   (where A is the Amplitude)

d = 4(3.40 cm)

d = 13.60 cm

Hence, the total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of its motion = 13.60 cm

b)

As we all know that:

x = Asin \omega t

Differentiating the above expression with respect to x ; we have :

\frac{d}{dt}(x) = \frac{d}{dt}(Asin \omega t)

v = A \omega cos \omega t

Assuming the maximum value of the speed(v) takes place when cosine function is maximum and the maximum value for cosine function is 1 ;

Then:

v_{max} = A \omega

We can then say that the maximum speed therefore occurs at the mean (excursion) position where ; x = 0  i.e at maximum excursion from equilibrium

substituting 2 \pi f for \omega in the above expression;

v_{max} = A(2 \pi f)

v_{max} = 3.40 cm (2 \pi *4.80)

v_{max} = 102.54 \ cm/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is = 102.54 cm/s

The maximum speed occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

c) Again;

v = A \omega cos \omega t

By differentiation with respect to  t;

\frac{d}{dt}(v) = \frac{d}{dt}(A \omega cos \omega t)

a =- A \omega^2 sin \omega t

The maximum acceleration of the sphere is;

a_{max} =A \omega^2

where;

w = 2 \pi f

a_{max} = A(2 \pi f)^2

where A= 3.40 cm = 0.034 m

a_{max} = 0.034*(2 \pi *4.80)^2

a_{max} = 30.93 \ m/s^2

The maximum magnitude of the acceleration of the sphere is = 30.93 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium where the oscillating sphere will have maximum acceleration at the turning points when the sphere has maximum displacement of x  = \pm A

A river 800m wide flows at the rate of 5km/h . A swimmer who can swim at 10km/h in still water wants to cross the river straight
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

At an angle of 30^{\circ}

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}
