Refer to the diagram shown below.
m = the mass of the object
x = the distance of the object from the equilibrium position at time t.
v = the velocity of the object at time t
a = the acceleration of the object at time t
A = the amplitude ( the maximum distance) of the mass from the equilibrium
position
The oscillatory motion of the object (without damping) is given by
x(t) = A sin(ωt)
where
ω = the circular frequency of the motion
T = the period of the motion so that ω = (2π)/T
The velocity and acceleration are respectively
v(t) = ωA cos(ωt)
a(t) = -ω²A sin(ωt)
In the equilibrium position,
x is zero;
v is maximum;
a is zero.
At the farthest distance (A) from the equilibrium position,
x is maximum;
v is zero;
a is zero.
In the graphs shown, it is assumed (for illustrative purposes) that
A = 1 and T = 1.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
BUT . . . in order to use this equation just the way it's written,
the speed has to be in meters per second. So we'll have to
make that conversion.
KE = (1/2) · (1,451 kg) · (48 km/hr)² · (1000 m/km)² · (1 hr/3,600 sec)²
= (725.5) · (48 · 1000 · 1 / 3,600)² (kg) · (km·m·hr / hr·km·sec)²
= (725.5) · ( 40/3 )² · ( kg·m² / sec²)
= 128,978 joules (rounded)
Answer:
v= 335 m/s
2∆t= 0.75 s
∆x= v.∆t → ∆x= 335×½×0.75 = 125.625 m
Answer:
Towards the west
Explanation:
Magnetic force is the interaction between a moving charged particle and a magnetic field.
Magnetic force is given as
F = q (V × B)
Where F is the magnetic force
q is the charge
V is the velocity
B is the magnetic field
V×B means the cross product of the velocity and the magnetic field
NOTE:
i×i=j×j×k×k=0
i×j=k. j×i=-k
j×k=i. k×j=-i
k×i=j. i×k=-j
So, if the electron is moving southward, then, it implies that the velocity of it motion is southward, so the electron is in the positive z-direction
Also, the electron is curved upward due to the magnetic field, this implies that the force field is directed up in the positive y direction.
Then,
V = V•k
F = F•j
Then, apply the theorem
F •j = q ( V•k × B•x)
Let x be the unknown
From vector k×i =j.
This shows that x = i
Then, the magnetic field point in the direction of positive x axis, which is towards the west
You can as well use the Fleming right hand rule
