Answer:

7.150 KJ

Explanation:

The total energy of a system is the sum of the potential and kinetic energy in the system. According to this question, the kinetic energy (KE) = 1368 J and a potential energy (PE) = 5782J.

Total energy of the system will be PE + KE as follows;

1368J + 5782J

= 7150J

However, the question demanded that the answer be in kJ (kilojoules), which is higher than the joules.

Since 1kJ = 1000J

7150J = 7150/1000

= 7.150kJ

In a solution,a Is the substance being dissolved
Elena-2011 [213]
In a solution, a SOLUTE is the substance being dissolved.

In a solution, a SOLVENT is the substance in which something is dissolved.

For example in salt water, the salt is the solute. And the water is the solvent. Usually, which substance has a larger amount in the solution can be called a solvent. It doesn't matter if it's a gas, solid, or liquid. They can all be solute or solvents.

A particle with a mass of 0.500 kg is attached to a horizontal spring with a force constant of 50.0 N/m. At the moment t = 0, th
svp [43]

a) x(t)=2.0 sin (10 t) [m]

The equation which gives the position of a simple harmonic oscillator is:

x(t)= A sin (\omega t)

where

A is the amplitude

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}} is the angular frequency, with k being the spring constant and m the mass

t is the time

Let's start by calculating the angular frequency:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{50.0 N/m}{0.500 kg}}=10 rad/s

The amplitude, A, can be found from the maximum velocity of the spring:

v_{max}=\omega A\\A=\frac{v_{max}}{\omega}=\frac{20.0 m/s}{10 rad/s}=2 m

So, the equation of motion is

x(t)= 2.0 sin (10 t) [m]

b)  t=0.10 s, t=0.52 s

The potential energy is given by:

U(x)=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

While the kinetic energy is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

The velocity as a function of time t is:

v(t)=v_{max} cos(\omega t)

The problem asks as the time t at which U=3K, so we have:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{3}{2}mv^2\\kx^2 = 3mv^2\\k (A sin (\omega t))^2 = 3m (\omega A cos(\omega t))^2\\(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3m\omega^2}{k}

However, \frac{m}{k}=\frac{1}{\omega^2}, so we have

(tan(\omega t))^2=\frac{3\omega^2}{\omega^2}=3\\tan(\omega t)=\pm \sqrt{3}\\

with two solutions:

\omega t= \frac{\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.10 s

\omega t= \frac{5\pi}{3}\\t=\frac{5\pi}{3\omega}=\frac{5\pi}{3(10 rad/s)}=0.52 s

c) 3 seconds.

When x=0, the equation of motion is:

0=A sin (\omega t)

so, t=0.

When x=1.00 m, the equation of motion is:

1=A sin(\omega t)\\sin(\omega t)=\frac{1}{A}=\frac{1}{2}\\\omega t= 30\\t=\frac{30}{\omega}=\frac{30}{10 rad/s}=3 s

So, the time needed is 3 seconds.

d) 0.097 m

The period of the oscillator in this problem is:

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\pi}{10 rad/s}=0.628 s

The period of a pendulum is:

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where L is the length of the pendulum. By using T=0.628 s, we find

L=\frac{T^2g}{(2\pi)^2}=\frac{(0.628 s)^2(9.8 m/s^2)}{(2\pi)^2}=0.097 m
