A 0.750kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.5N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit

vazorg [7]

Answer:

A)A=0.075 m

B)v= 0.21 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.75 kg

K= 13.5 N

The natural frequency of the block given as

$\omega =\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}$

The maximum speed v given as

$v=\omega A$

A=Amplitude

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times A$

$0.32=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times A$

A=0.075 m

A= 0.75 cm

The speed at distance x

$v=\omega \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{K}{m}}\times \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{13.5}{0.75}}\times \sqrt{0.075^2-(0.075\times 0.75)^2}$

v= 0.21 m/s

How do you think that changing the mass of the pendulum bob will affect the period of the pendulum swing?

myrzilka [38]

(Mass does not affect the pendulum's swing. The longer the length of string, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period, or back and forth swing of the pendulum. The greater the amplitude, or angle, the farther the pendulum falls; and therefore, the longer the period.)

A Ferris wheel turns at a constant 150.0 revolutions per hour. (a) Express this rate of rotation in units of radians per second.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.261 rad/s

(b) 1007.72 m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel is 150.0 revolutions per hour.

(a) To calculate the angular velocity of the wheel in units of radians per second, you take into account the following equivalence:

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 revolution = 2π radians

You use the previous conversion factors:

$150.0\ \frac{rev}{h}*\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1\ rev}*\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s}=0.261\frac{rad}{s}$

In units of radians per seconds the wheel turns at 0.261 rad/s

(b) To find the arc length described by the wheel, you first calculate the angle described by the wheel in the time t, by using the following formula:

$\theta=\omega t$ (1)
