Figure 10.20 in your textbook shows an energy diagram for a system with total energy E1. Suppose the system's total energy is E2

= (1/3)E1. In what ways could the particle move?
Select all that apply.

a.) It could remain at rest at x3.
b.) It could oscillate between x1 and x5.
c.) It could undergo small oscillations around x2.
d.) It could undergo small oscillations around x3.
e.) It could undergo small oscillations around x4.

Please explain why, I have an exam coming up and want to understand the concept.

The particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

The given parameters;

  • <em>initial energy of the particles = E₁</em>
  • <em>final energy of the particles, E₂ = 0.33E₁</em>

The movement of the particles depends on the kinetic energy of the particles.

When kinetic energy of the particles is 100%, the particles can oscillate from x₁ to x₅.

However, when the total energy of this particles is reduced to one-third (¹/₃) or 33% of the initial energy of the particle, the oscillation of the particles will be reduced.

  • The maximum position the particle can oscillate is x₅
  • The half position the particles can oscillate is x₃

Since 33% is less than the half of the energy of the particle, the particle will oscillate between x₁ and x₂.

Thus, we can conclude that the particles can undergo small oscillations around x₂.

Bess [88]

Answer:

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

Explanation:

Asumiendo que la presión (P), medida en pascales, tiene una distribución uniforme sobre la superficie del pistón, se calcula a partir de la siguiente expresion:

P = \frac{F}{A}

Donde:

F - Fuerza motriz, medida en newtons.

A - Área del pistón, medida en metros cuadrados.

La fuerza motriz es equivalente al peso del automóvil. El área del pistón (A), medido en metros cuadrados, es determinado por:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}

Donde D es el diámetro del pistón, medido en metros.

Si D = 0.32\,m y F =17,640\,N, entonces la presión neumática es:

A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.32\,m)^{2}

A \approx 0.080\,m^{2}

P = \frac{17,640\,N}{0.080\,m^{2}}

P = 220,500\,Pa

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

a roller coaster is at the top of a hill and rolls to the top of a lower hill.If mechanical energy is conserved,on the top of wh
pychu [463]
Hello!!

Here we have a simple matter of conservation of energy. ME=PE+KE.

At point A we have PE=mgh and KE=1/2mv^2. At point A all we have is PE since the coaster isn’t rolling yet. But by conservation of energy, we know that it will have enough energy to roll down and get to and equal height on another hill. Providing we are neglecting friction and drag and resistance forces which we are in this case. So we can conclude that the KE will be greater at Point B since ME=PE+KE and for ME to remain the same and we know the PE is less on lower hill, so we can conclude that KE on lower hill is greater to keep ME the same and have conservation of energy.

Hope this helps you understand the concept!! Any questions please just ask!! Thank you so much!!
