A spring has natural length 0.75 m and a 5 kg mass. A force of 8 N is needed to keep the spring stretched to a length of 0.85 m.

If the spring is stretched to a length of 1 m and then released with velocity 0, find the position of the mass after t seconds.

Use Hooke's law to find the spring constant. If it takes 8N to stretch the spring by 0.1m, then

8\text{ N}=k(0.1\text{ m})\implies k=80\dfrac{\text N}{\text m}

I'm going to assume the spring is fixed to a ceiling, and that any stretching in the downward direction counts as movement in the positive direction. The spring's motion is then modeled by

y''(t)+80y(t)=0

where y(t) is the position of the spring's free end as it moves up and down. Solving this is easy enough: the characteristic solution will be

y(t)=C_1\cos4\sqrt5t+C_2\sin4\sqrt5t

Given that the spring is stretched to a length of 1m (a difference of 0.25m from its natural length), and is released with no external pushing or pulling, we have the two initial conditions y(0)=\dfrac14 and y'(0)=0.

y(0)=\dfrac14\implies\dfrac14=C_1\cos0+C_2\sin0\implies C_1=\dfrac14
y'(0)=0\implies 0=-4\sqrt5C_1\sin0+4\sqrt5C_2\cos0\implies C_2=0

So the spring's motion is dictated by the function

y(t)=\dfrac14\cos4\sqrt5t

Find the value of x so that L is parallel to M. State the converse used!
galben [10]

Answer:

<h3>6 degrees</h3>

Step-by-step explanation

Find the diagram attached. In Line geometry, there is a theorem that states that the sum of the adjacent interior angles is 180 degrees. According to the diagram, the adjacent interior angles are 7x- 15 and 24x + 9.

The sum of this angles must give 180 degrees as shown;

7x-15 + 24x + 9 = 180

7x+24x-15+9 = 180

31x-6 = 180

31x = 180+6

31x = 186

x = 186/31

x = 6

Hence the value of x is 6 degrees

video games six hours every weekend. he also plays 2 hours each day of the week. how many hours does mr.danie spend playing vide
Juliette [100K]

Answer:66 hours of video games in three weeks!

Step-by-step explanation:First you would multiply 6 by 2 because the weekend refers to Saturday and Sunday which are two days,when you multiply 6 by 2 you get 12.Next you would multiply 2 by 5 because the problem says  2 hours each day of the week,when you multiply 2 by 5 you get 10.Then you add 10 and 12 which gets you to 22.Last but not least you multiply 22 by 3 because the question says  how many hours does mr.danie spend playing video games over <em>3 weeks,</em>which bring you to 66!

I hope I helped!
