Answer:

0.05cos10t

Explanation:

X(t) = Acos(wt+φ)

The oscillation angular frequency can be calculated using below formula

w = √(k/M)

Where K is the spring constant

But we were given body mass of 5.0 kg

We know acceleration due to gravity as 9.8m)s^2

The lenghth of spring which stretches =10 cm

Then we can calculate the value of K

k = (5.0kg*9.8 m/s^2)/0.10 m

K= 490 N/m

Then if we substitute these values into the formula above we have

w = √(k/M)

w = √(490/5)

= 9.90 rad/s=10rads/s(approximately)

Its position as a function of time can be calculated using the below expresion

X(t) = Acos(wt+φ)

We were given amplitude of 5 cm , if we convert to metre = 0.05m

w=10rads/s

Then if we substitute we have

X(t)=0.05cos(10×t)

X(t)= 0.05cos10t

Therefore,Its position as a function of time=

X(t)= 0.05cos10t

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid
tekilochka [14]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is r_x=140 km

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is r_y=581 km

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

F_x=F_y

\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}

cancel out the common terms we get

\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581

A passenger compartment of a rotating amusement park ride contains a bench on which a book of mass
Basile [38]

a) 120 s

b) v = 0.052R [m/s]

Explanation:

a)

The period of a revolution in a simple harmonic motion is the time taken for the object in motion to complete one cycle (in this case, the time taken to complete one revolution).

The graph of the problem is missing, find it in attachment.

To find the period of revolution of the book, we have to find the time between two consecutive points of the graph that have exactly the same shape, which correspond to two points in which the book is located at the same position.

The first point we take is t = 0, when the position of the book is x = 0.

Then, the next point with same shape is at t = 120 s, where the book returns at x = 0 m.

Therefore, the period is

T = 120 s - 0 s = 120 s

b)

The tangential speed of the book is given by the ratio between the distance covered during one revolution, which is the perimeter of the wheel, and the time taken, which is the period.

The perimeter of the wheel is:

L=2\pi R

where R is the radius of the wheel.

The period of revolution is:

T=120 s

Therefore, the tangential speed of the book is:

v=\frac{L}{T}=\frac{2\pi R}{120}=0.052R
