a) ¿En qué posición es mínima la magnitud de la fuerza sobre la masa de un sistema masa-resorte? 1) x 0, 2) x A o 3) x A. ¿Por q

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

a) the correct answer is 1 , b) x=0 F=0, a=0

x= 0.050 F= -7.5 N, a= -15 m/s²

x= 0.150 F= 22.5 N, a=- 45 m/s²

Explanation:

a) In a mass - spring system the force is given by the Hooke force,

F = - k x

Analyzing this equation we see that the outside is proportional to the elongation from the equilibrium position, therefore the force is zero when the spring is in its equilibrium position

the correct answer is 1

b) we assume that the given values are from the equilibrium position of the spring.

Let's calculate the force

x = 0

F = 0

x = 0.050

F = - 150 0.050

F = - 7.50 N

x = 0.150

F = - 150 0.150

F = - 22.5 N

let's use Newton's second law to find the acceleration

F = m a

a = F / m

x = 0 m

a = 0

x = 0.050 m

a = -7.50 / 0.50

a = - 15 m / s²

x = 0.150 m

a = - 22.5 / 0.50

a = - 45 m/s²

TRASLATE

a) En un sistema masa – resorte la fuerza es dada por la fuerza de Hoke,

F= - k x

analizando esta ecuación vemos que la fuera es proporcional a la elongación desde la posición de equilibrio, por lo tanto la fuerza es cero cuando el resorte esta en su posición de equilibrio

la respuesta correcta es 1

b)suponemos que los valores dados son desde la posición de equilibrio del resorte.

Calculemos la fuerza

x=0

F= 0

x=0.050

F = - 150 0.050

F= - 7.50 N

x= 0.150

F= - 150 0.150

F= - 22.5 N

usemos la segunda ley de Newton para encontrar la aceleración

F = m a

a = F/m

x =0 m

a = 0

x= 0.050 m

a = -7.50/ 0.50

a =- 15 m/s²

x= 0.150 m

a= - 22.5 / 0.50

a= - 45 m/s²

Agri-Chem's contract with Enerco specified a maximum of 90,000 cu.ft. X 103 per day for its complexes. However, curtailments are

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Caustic soda would be least affected by a gas curtailment

Explanation:

Let,

X1= ammonia

X2= ammonium phosphate

X3= ammonium nitrate

X4 = Urea

X5= hydro-fluoric acid

X6= Chlorine

X7= Caustic soda

X8= Vinyl chloride monomer.

Agri chem’s current natural gas usage

= (1200 × 8 + 540 × 10 + 490 × 12 + …)

= 85,680,000 cu. ft. per day

When, the curtailment is 20%, availability is

= 0.8 X 85,680

= 68,554,000 cu. ft. per day

Therefore, the gas constant

= 8X1 + 10X2 + 12X3 + 12X4 + 7X5 + 18X6 + 20X7 + 14X8 ≤68,544

When, the curtailment is 40% availability is

= 0.6 X 85,680

= 51,408,000 cu. ft. per day

Constant = 8X1 + 10X2 + 12X3 + 12X4 + 7X5 + 18X6 + 20X7 + 14X8≤ 51,408

How did Galileo's observations of Jupiter and Venus support Copernicus's model?

Contact [7]

Before Copernicus most people were thinking that the Earth is at center of universe. In 1609 Galileo observed sky through his home made telescope.
He found 4 moons orbiting Jupiter..It was a proof that bodies are orbiting other planets and not earth alone. <span>He found the crescent shape of Venus through his telescope and this could happen only if Sun is at center.</span>
