Answer: 4,998 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

E_p=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the heigth of the object with respect to a reference point

In this problem, m=68 kg, g=9.8 m/s^2, and h=7.5 m is the heigth of the diver with respect to the surface of the pool. Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of the diver with respect to the surface of the pool is

E=mgh=(68 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(7.5 m)=4,998 J

Rotation of the lever OA is controlled by the motion of the contacting circular disk of radius r = 300 mm whose center is given
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The angular velocity is

5.64rad/s

Explanation:

This problem bothers on curvilinear motion

The angular velocity is defined as the rate of change of angular displacement it is expressed in rad/s

We know that the velocity v is given as

v= ωr

Where ω is the angular velocity

r is 300mm to meter = 0.3m

the radius of the circle

described by the level

v=1.64m/s

Making ω subject of the formula and solving we have

ω=v/r

ω=1.64/0.3

ω=5.46 rad/s

A block is attached to a horizontal spring. On top of this block rests another block. The two-block system slides back and forth
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Angular frequency will increase

No change in the amplitude

Explanation:

At extreme end of the SHM the energy of the SHM is given by

E = \frac{1}{2} (m_1 + m_2)\omega^2 A^2

here we know that

\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m_1 + m_2}

now at the extreme end when one of the mass is removed from it

then in that case the angular frequency will change

\omega'^2 = \frac{k}{m_1}

So angular frequency will increase

but the position of extreme end will not change as it is given here that the top block is removed without disturbing the lower block

so here no change in the amplitude
