Answer:

A) a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) Δθ = 3665.2 rad

Explanation:

A) From Newton's first equation of motion, we can say that;

a = (ω - ω_o)/t. We are given that the centrifuge spins at a maximum rate of 7000rpm.

Let's convert to rad/s = 7000 × 2π/60 = 733.04 rad/s

Thus change in angular velocity = (ω - ω_o) = 733.04 - 0 = 733.04 rad/s

We are given; t = 10 s

Thus;

a = 733.04/10

a = 73.304 rad/s²

B) From Newton's third equation of motion, we can say that;

ω² = ω_o² + 2aΔθ

Where Δθ is angular displacement

Making Δθ the subject;

Δθ = (ω² - ω_o²)/2a

At this point, ω = 0 rad/s while ω_o = 733.04 rad/s

Thus;

Δθ = (0² - 733.04²)/(2 × 73.304)

Δθ = -537347.6416/146.608

Δθ = - 3665.2 rad

We will take the absolute value.

Thus, Δθ = 3665.2 rad

A 0.20-kg mass is oscillating on a spring over a horizontal frictionless surface. When it is at a displacement of 2.6 cm for equ
valentinak56 [21]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

                    mass = 0.20 kg

              displacement = 2.6 cm

              Kinetic energy = 1.4 J

       Spring potential energy = 2.2 J

Now, we will calculate the total energy present present as follows.

         Total energy = Kinetic energy + spring potential energy

                           = 1.4 J + 2.2 J

                            = 3.6 Joules

As maximum kinetic energy of the object will be equal to the total energy.

So,      K.E = Total energy

                = 3.6 J

Also, we know that

                  K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{m}

or,                   v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m}}

                        = \sqrt{2 \times 3.6 J}{0.2 kg}

                        = \sqrt{36}

                        = 6 m/s

thus, we can conclude that maximum speed of the mass during its oscillation is 6 m/s.
