Answer:

Vf = 75.4 m/s

Explanation:

In order to find the final velocity of the penny when it would hit the ground, we will use the equation of motion. In this particular case the third equation of motion can be used. The third equation of motion is written as follows:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

Vf = Final Velocity of the penny when it would hit the ground = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity of the penny = 0 m/s (Since, the penny starts from rest)

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height of building = 290 m

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(290 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(5684 m²/s²)

For a damped simple harmonic oscillator, the block has a mass of 1.2 kg and the spring constant is 9.8 N/m. The damping force is

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) t=24s

b) number of oscillations= 11

Explanation:

In case of a damped simple harmonic oscillator the equation of motion is

m(d²x/dt²)+b(dx/dt)+kx=0

Therefore on solving the above differential equation we get,

x(t)=A₀ $e^{\frac{-bt}{2m}}cos(w't+\phi)=A(t)cos(w't+\phi)$
