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

Hey there! :)

Answer:

x = 242 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by setting up a proportion between the actual college building and the drawing.

\frac{22mm}{9m} = \frac{x}{99m}

Cross multiply:

99 × 22 = 9 × x

2178 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9:

2178/9 = 9x/9

x = 242 mm.

Answer:

6p =120

Step-by-step explanation:

well the p's are very close together in a sense that we are going to multiply instead of add because they the p's would have space in between

6 * 20 = 120

so p= 20
