A 50.0-g object connected to a spring with a force constant of 35.0 n/m oscillates with an amplitude of 4.00 cm on a frictionles
Dimas [21]
A) The total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:
E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 +  \frac{1}{2}kx^2
where
m is the mass
v is the speed
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation/compression of the spring

The total energy is conserved, so we can calculate its value at any point of the motion. If we take the point of maximum displacement:
x=A=4.00 cm = 0.04 m
then the velocity of the system is zero, so the total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to
E=U= \frac{1}{2}kA^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=0.028 J

b) When the position of the object is 
x=1.00 cm = 0.01 m
the potential energy of the system is
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.01 m)^2 = 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3} J
and so the kinetic energy is
K=E-U=0.028 J - 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3}J =0.026 J
since the mass is m=50.0 g=0.05 kg, and the kinetic energy is given by
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
we can re-arrange the formula to find the speed of the object:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.026 J}{0.05 kg} }=1.02 m/s

c) The potential energy when the object is at 
x=3.00 cm=0.03 m
is
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J
Therefore the kinetic energy is
K=E-U=0.028 J-0.016 J = 0.012 J

d) We already found the potential energy at point c, and it is given by
U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

636.619772368 A

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 1\times 10^{-3}\ N/m

B = Magnetic field of Earth = 5\times 10^{-5}\ T

A = Area

d = Diameter = 20 cm

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\tau}{BA}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-3}}{5\times 10^{-5}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.2^2}\\\Rightarrow I=636.619772368\ A

The current is 636.619772368 A

A power cycle operates between hot and cold reservoirs at 1200 K and 300 K, respectively. At steady state the cycle develops a p
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Thermal efficiency = work output / heat input

= .38 MW / 1 MW = .38

OR 38%

Heat rejected at cold reservoir = heat input - work output

1 MW - .38 MW

= 0.62 MW.

b ) For reversible power output

efficiency = T₂ - T₁ / T₂   ; T₂ is temperature of hot reservoir and T₁ is temperature of cold reservoir.

= 1200 - 300 / 1200 = 900 / 1200

= .75

or 75%

rate at which heat is rejected

= 1 - .75 x 1

= .25 MW .

The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses.
Ludmilka [50]

The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses; protective and the discriminative system. The function of the protective system is to alert us to harmful stimuli. The receptors of the system are the hairs of our skin, head and genitals. The discriminative system is to show us what we are touching, where on our bodies is touching us and what are touching us. The receptors for his system are the hands, fingers, soles of feet and mouth and tongue.
