Answer:

5.01 J

Explanation:

Info given:

mass (m) = 0.0780kg

height (h) = 5.36m

velocity (v) = 4.84 m/s

gravity (g) = 9.81m/s^2

1. First, solve for Kinetic energy (KE)

KE = 1/2mv^2

1/2(0.0780kg)(4.84m/s)^2 = 0.91 J

so KE = 0.91 J

2. Next, solve for Potential energy (PE)

PE = mgh

(0.0780kg)(9.81m/s^2)(5.36m) = 4.10 J

so PE = 4.10 J

3. Mechanical Energy , E = KE + PE

Plug in values for KE and PE

KE + PE = 0.91J + 4.10 J = 5.01 J

Answer:

When you have to do an English-Metric (SI) length conversion, and you already know the English units of length (miles, yards, feet, inches, etc.), all you need to remember is one simple relationship, and you can readily convert any length in the SI system, to the equivalent length in the other.

1 foot (ft) = 0.3048 meters (m)

BIn this case you need your answer in inches. You (hopefully) know there are 12 inches in a foot, so you just do the following:

1 inch (in) = 1/12 ft = 0.3048/12 m = 0.0254 m

The New England Merchants Bank Building in Boston is 152 m high. On windy days it sways with a frequency of 0.17 Hz, and the acc

Answer:

d = 8.4 cm

Explanation:

In order to calculate the amplitude of oscillation of the top of the building, you use the following formula for the max acceleration of as simple harmonic motion:

$a_{max}=A\omega^2$ (1)

A: amplitude of the oscillation

w: angular speed of the oscillation = 2 $\pi$ f

f: frequency = 0.17Hz

The maximum acceleration of the top of the building is a 2.0% of the free-fall acceleration. Then, you have:

$a_{max}=0.02(9.8m/s^2)=0.196\frac{m}{s^2}$

Then, you solve for A in the equation (1) and replace the values of the parameters:

$A=\frac{a_{max}}{\omega^2}=\frac{a_{max}}{4\p^2i f^2}\\\\A=\frac{0.196m/s^2}{16\pi^2(0.17Hz)^2}\\\\A=0.042m=4.2cm$

The total distance, side to side, of the oscilation of the top of the building is twice the amplitude A. Then you obtain:

d = 2A = 2(4.2cm) = 8.4cm
