A student thinks that any real vibration must be damped. Is the student correct? If so, give convincing reasoning. If not, give

an example of a real vibration that keeps constant amplitude forever if the system is isolated.

Answer:

Yes the student is correct

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed

The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases

Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped

A horse gallops for 3.5 minutes around the raceing track. During this time it changes velocity from 543 min to 628 min. Calculat
enot [183]

Answer:

The acceleration of the horse during this time interval is 24.286 m/min²

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the horse during the gallop, u = 543 m /min

final velocity of the horse during the gallop, v = 628 m /min

time of motion, t = 3.5 minutes

The acceleration of the horse is given by the change in velocity per change in time;

a = \frac{v-u}{t}\\\\a = \frac{628-543}{3.5}\\\\a = 24.286 \ m/min^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the horse during this time interval is 24.286 m/min²

Assuming the earth is a uniform sphere of mass M and radius R, show that the acceleration of fall at the earth's surface is give
Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

The weight of an object on the surface of the earth is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the earth on the object.

W=F_G

mg = G \dfrac{mM}{R^2}

which gives us an expression for the acceleration due to gravity <em>g</em> as

g = G\dfrac{M}{R^2}

At a height h = R, the radius of a satellite's orbit is 2R. Then the acceleration due to gravity g_h at this height is

mg_h = G \dfrac{mM}{(2R)^2}= G \dfrac{mM}{4R^2}

Simplifying this, we get

g_h= G \dfrac{M}{4R^2} = \dfrac{1}{4} \left(G \dfrac{M}{R^2} \right) = \dfrac{1}{4}g
