A 220 g mass is on a frictionless horizontal surface at the end of a spring that has force constant of 7.0
Talja [164]

The concept of conservation of energy and harmonic motion allows to find the result for the power where the kinetic and potential energy are equal is:

        x = 0.135 cm

Given parameters

  • The mass m = 220 g = 0.220 kg
  • The spring cosntnate3 k = 7.0 N / m
  • Initial displacement A = 5.2 cm = 5.2 10-2 m

To find

  • The position where the kinetic and potential energy are equal

 

A simple harmonic movement is a movement where the restoring force is proportional to the displacement, the result of this movement is described by the expression.

          x = A cos wt + fi

          w² = \frac{k}{m}

Where x is the displacement from the equilibrium position, A the initial amplitude of the system, w the angular velocity t the time, fi a phase constant determined by the initial conditions, k the spring constant and m the mass.

The speed is defined by the variation of the position with respect to time.

       v = \frac{dx}{dt}

let's evaluate

       v = - A w sin (wt + Ф)

Since the body releases for a time t = 0 the velocity is zero, therefore the expression remains.

       0 = - A w sin Ф

For the equality to be correct, the sine function must be zero, this implies that the phase constant is zero

        x = A cos wt

Let's find the point where the kinetic and potential energy are equal.

        K = U

        ½ m v² = m g x

       

we substitute

        ½ A² w² sin² wt = g A cos wt

        sin² wt = \frac{2g}{A}  cos wt

let's calculate

      w = \sqrt{\frac{7}{0.220} }  

      w = 5.64 rad / s

      sin² 5.64t = 2 9.8 / 0.052 cos 5.64t

      sin² 5.64t = 376.92 cos 5.64 t

      1 - cos² 5.64t = 376.92 cos 5.64t

      cos² 5.64t -376.92 cos564t -1 = 0

we make the change of variable

       x = cos 5.64t

      x²- 376.92 x - 1 = 0

      x = 0.026

      cos 5.64t = 0.026

   

Let's find the displacement for this time

       x = 5.2 10-2 0.026

       x = 1.35 10-3 m

In conclusion Using the concepts of conservation of energy and harmonic motion we can find the result for the could where the kientic and potential enegies are equal is:

        x = 0.135 cm

A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 2.60 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally
Ivenika [448]

(a) +2.60 m/s

The motion of the fish dropped by the seagul is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- a horizontal uniform motion, at constant speed

- a vertical motion, at constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity, g=-9.8 m/s^2, downward)

In this part we are only interested in the horizontal motion. As we said the horizontal component of the fish's velocity does not change, therefore its value when the fish reaches the ocean is equal to its initial value, which is the speed at which the seagull was flying (because it was flying horizontally):

v_x = +2.60 m/s

(b) -17.2 m/s

The vertical component of the fish's velocity instead follows the equation:

v_y = u_y +gt

where

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity, which is zero

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Since the fish reaches the ocean at t = 1.75 s, we can substitute this time into the formula to find the final vertical velocity:

v_y = 0+(-9.8)(1.75)=-17.2 m/s

where the negative sign indicates the direction (downward).

(c)

The horizontal component of the fish's velocity would increase

The vertical component of the fish's velocity would stay the same.

As we said from part (a) and (b):

- The horizontal component of the fish's velocity is constant during the motion and it is equal to the initial velocity of the seagull -> so if the seagull's initial speed increases, the horizontal velocity of the fish will increase too

- The vertical component of the fish's velocity does not depend on the original speed of the seagull, therefore it is not affected.

What is one thing you could explain to them to prove that humans did land on the moon?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The biggest of all these was, and perhaps still is, the ongoing fascination with whether we, the United States of America, in July 1969 actually landed on the moon — where, ahem, astronaut footprints are still visible.

A canister is filled with 310 g of ice and 100. G of liquid water, both at 0 ∘c . The canister is placed in an oven until all th
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Here in the process we require

1. Heat to melt down all ice

2. Heat to raise the temperature of whole water to 100 degree C

3. Heat to boil off the water

now here for the first part

Heat required to melt the ice

Q_1 = mL

Q_1 = 310*80  = 24800 cal

now heat required to raise the temperature to 100 degree C

Q_2 = ms\Delta T

Q_2 = (310 + 100)*1*(100 - 0)

Q_2 = 41000 cal

Now heat required to boil it off

Q_3 = mL

Q_3 = 410*540 = 221400 cal

now the total heat required will be

Q = Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3

Q = 24800 + 41000 + 221400

Q = 287200 cal

so it required 287200 calorie heat to boil it all water
