oscillating spring mass systems can be used to experimentally determine an unknown mass without using a mass balance. a student

observes that a particular spring-mass system has a frequency of oscillation of 10 Hz. the spring constant of the spring is 250 N/m. what is the mass?​

Answer:

0.063 Kg

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Frequency (f) = 10 Hz

Spring constant (K) = 250 N/m

Mass (m) =?

Next, we shall determine the period of oscillation. This can be obtained as follow:

Frequency (f) = 10 Hz

Period (T) =?

T = 1/f

T = 1/10

T = 0.1 s

Finally, we shall determine the mass of the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Spring constant (K) = 250 N/m

Period (T) = 0.1 s

Pi (π) = 3.14

Mass (m) =?

T = 2π√(m/K)

0.1 = 2 × 3.14 × √(m/250)

0.1 = 6.28 × √(m/250)

Divide both side by 6.28

0.1 / 6.28 = √(m/250)

Take the square of both side.

(0.1 / 6.28)² = m/250

Cross multiply

m = (0.1 / 6.28)² × 250

m = 0.063 Kg

Therefore, the mass of the spring is 0.063 Kg.

A lightweight string is wrapped several times around the rim of a small hoop. If the free end of the string is held in place and
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension

For linear motion of hoop downwards

mg -T = ma , m is mass of the hoop . a is linear acceleration of CG of hoop .

For rotational motion of hoop

Torque by tension

T x R ,      R is radius of hoop.

Angular acceleration be α,

Linear acceleration a = α R

So TR = I  α

= I  a / R

a = TR² / I

Putting this value in earlier relation

mg -T = m TR² / I

mg = T ( 1 + m R² / I )

T = mg / ( 1 + m R² / I )

mg / ( 1 + R² / k² )

Tension is less than mg or weight because denominator of the expression is more than 1.

a sprinter with a mass of 80kg accelerates uniformly from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 s. a.)what is the runners acceleration? b.) what i
Katyanochek1 [597]
Part A: 
Acceleration can be calculated by dividing the difference of the initial and final velocities by the given time. That is,
             a = (Vf - Vi) / t
where a is acceleration,
Vf is final velocity,
Vi is initial velocity, and
t is time

Substituting,
            a = (9 m/s - 0 m/s) / 3 s = 3 m/s²
<em>ANSWER: 3 m/s²</em>

Part B: 
From Newton's second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration,
               F = m x a
where F is force,
m is mass, and 
a is acceleration

Substituting,
              F = (80 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 240 kg m/s² = 240 N

<em>ANSWER: 240 N </em>

Part C: 
The distance that the sprinter travel is calculated through the equation,
         d = V₀t + 0.5at²

Substituting,
            d = (0 m/s)(3 s) + 0.5(3 m/s²)(3 s)²
             d = 13.5 m

<em>ANSWER: d = 13.5 m</em>

Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init
SOVA2 [1]

<em>Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init</em>

<em>In SI units, nano is 1000th part of micro which in turn is 1000th part of mini which in turn is 1000th part of main unit. Now, when you affix nano to any unit, here in case, second, it means that you are referring to 1000th part of 1000th part of 1000th part of second or in short, 1000000000th(10^9) part of a second.</em>

Noise-canceling headphones are an application of destructive interference. Each side of the headphones uses a microphone to pick
exis [7]
The question for this problem would be the minimum headphone delay, in ms, that will cancel this noise.
The 200 Hz. period = (1/200) = 0.005 sec. It will need to be delayed by 1/2, so 0.005/2, that is = 0.0025 sec. So converting sec to ms, will give us the delay of:Delay = 2.5 ms.
