Answer:

A carbon brush is a sliding contact used to transmit electrical current from a static to a rotating part in a motor or generator, and machines, ensuring a spark free communication. Carbon brushes are also used in electric motors to provide a path for flow of current.

Consider a situation of simple harmonic motion in which the distance between the endpoints is 2.39 m and exactly 8 cycles are co

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

1.195 m

2.8375 s

2.21433 rad/s

Explanation:

d = Distance = 2.39 m

N = Number of cycles = 8

t = Time to complete 8 cycles = 22.7 s

Radius would be equal to the distance divided by 2

$r=\frac{d}{2}\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{2.39}{2}\\\Rightarrow r=1.195\ m$

The radius is 1.195 m

Time period would be given by

$T=\frac{t}{N}\\\Rightarrow T=\frac{22.7}{8}\\\Rightarrow T=2.8375\ s$

Time period of the motion is 2.8375 s

Angular speed is given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\frac{2\pi}{2.8375}\\\Rightarrow \omega=2.21433\ rad/s$

The angular speed of the motion is 2.21433 rad/s
