istance 0.0140 m from its equilibrium position, it is observed to have a speed of 0.400 m/s .

Answer

a)0.0495 J

b)0.01681 m

c)0.7218 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the.toy M = 0.190 kg

force constant k = 350 N/m

Displacement from equilibrium x = 0.0140 m

Speed v = 0.400 m/s

a)What is the toy's total energy at any point of its motion?

The total energy at any point of it's motion can be calculated by adding together both the potential and kinetic energy of the toy, since it's posses potential energy when at rest and kinetic energy at motion

Total energy E = kinetic energy + potential energy

E = ¹/₂mv² + ¹/₂kx²

E = ¹/₂ (0.190)(0.4)² + ¹/₂ (350)(0.0140)²

E = 0.0495 J

Hence,the total energy is 0.0495 J

b) the amplitude of the motion can be calculated using below formula

Let amplitude = A

E = ¹/₂KA²

if we make Amplitude A the subject of the formula we have

A=√(2E/k)

But we have calculated our E up there, our K was given in question then if we substitute we have

A= √(2×0.0495)/350

Ans: 0.01681 m

Hence, our Amplitude is 0.01681 m

c) the the toy's maximum speed during its motion can be calculated using the expression below

Let maximum speed = vmax

E = (1/2)M * vmax^2

If we make vmax the subject of the formula we have

vmax =√(2E/m)

vmax= √(2×0.0495)/0.190

vmax=0.7218 m/s

Hence our vmax is 0.7218 m/s

An 18-cm-long bicycle crank arm, with a pedal at one end, is attached to a 20-cm-diameter sprocket, the toothed disk around whic

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Part a)

$a = 0.056 m/s^2$

Part b)

$L = 7.85 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

Angular speed of the pedal is changing from 60 rpm to 90 rpm in 10 s

so the angular acceleration is given as

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_2 - \omega_1}{\Delta t}$

so we will have

$\alpha = \frac{2\pi(\frac{90}{60}) - 2\pi(\frac{60}{60})}{10}$

$\alpha = 0.314 rad/s^2$

now the tangential acceleration of the pedal is given as

$a = r \alpha$

$a = 0.18 \times 0.314$

$a = 0.056 m/s^2$

Part b)

Total angular displacement made by the sprocket in the interval of 10 s is given as

$\theta = \frac{\omega_f + \omega_i}{2} t$

$\theta = \frac{2\pi (\frac{90}{60}) + 2\pi (\frac{60}{60})}{2}(10)$

$\theta = 78.5 radian$

now length of the chain passing over it is given as

$L = R\theta$

$L = 0.10 \times 78.5$

$L = 7.85 m$

The minute hand of a wall clock measures 16 cm from its tip to the axis about which it rotates. The magnitude and angle of the d

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Minute hand length =16 cm

Time at a quarter after the hour to half past i.e. 1 hr 45 min

Angle covered by minute hand in 1 hr is 360 and in 45 minutes 270

$|r|=\frac{3\times 2\pi r}{4}=75.408 cm$

$Angle =270^{\circ}$

(c)For the next half hour

Effectively it has covered 2 revolution and a quarter

$|r|=\frac{2\pi r}{4}=25.136 cm$

angle turned $=90^{\circ}$

(f)Hour after that

After an hour it again comes back to its original position thus displacement is same =25.136

Angle turned will also be same i.e. $90 ^{\circ}$

16. A 7500 kg 18-wheeler traveling at 20 m/s exits onto the runaway truck ramp on the freeway.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

<em>765,000 Joule</em>

Explanation:

<u>Principle of Conservation of Energy </u>

The total energy in an isolated system cannot be created or destroyed, but transformed. Moving objects have kinetic energy, objects placed in some height above a reference level have gravitational potential energy. When they change their motion variables, one energy converts into the other, but if the numbers don't fit, we know there was some other type of energy acting into the system. The most common reason for energy 'losses' is the thermal energy, produced when objects move in rough surfaces or take friction from the air.

The 7,500 kg truck is originally traveling at 20 m/s to a certain height we'll set to 0. Thus, its total energy is

$\displaystyle E_1=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle E_1=\frac{7,500\ 20^2}{2}$

$E_1=1,500,000\ Joule$

When it comes to a stop, its speed is 0 and its height is 10 m higher than before. It means all the kinetic energy was transformed into other types of energy. The gravitational potential energy is

$U=mgh=(7,500)(9.8)(10)=735,000\ Joule$

Since this number is not equal to the previous value of the energy, the difference is due to thermal energy dissipated by friction

$E_t=1,500,000\ Joule-735,000\ Joule=765,000\ Joule$

Two wires are stretched between two fixed supports and have the same length. One wire A there is a second-harmonic standing wave

lina2011 [118]

(a) Greater

The frequency of the nth-harmonic on a string is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency, $f_1$ :

$f_n = n f_1$

So we have:

- On wire A, the second-harmonic has frequency of $f_2 = 660 Hz$ , so the fundamental frequency is:

$f_1 = \frac{f_2}{2}=\frac{660 Hz}{2}=330 Hz$

- On wire B, the third-harmonic has frequency of $f_3 = 660 Hz$ , so the fundamental frequency is

$f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}=\frac{660 Hz}{3}=220 Hz$

So, the fundamental frequency of wire A is greater than the fundamental frequency of wire B.

(b) $f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}$

For standing waves on a string, the fundamental frequency is given by the formula:

$f_1 = \frac{v}{2L}$

where

v is the speed at which the waves travel back and forth on the wire

L is the length of the string

(c) Greater speed on wire A

We can solve the formula of the fundamental frequency for v, the speed of the wave:

$v=2Lf_1$

We know that the two wires have same length L. For wire A, $f_1 = 330 Hz$ , while for wave B, $f_B = 220 Hz$ , so we can write the ratio between the speeds of the waves in the two wires:

$\frac{v_A}{v_B}=\frac{2L(330 Hz)}{2L(220 Hz)}=\frac{3}{2}$

So, the waves travel faster on wire A.

A satellite completes one revolution of a planet in almost exactly one hour. At the end of one hour, the satellite has traveled

sesenic [268]

Velocity =

(distance between start point and end point, regardless of the route traveled) / (time spent traveling).

That distance (called the "displacement"), is 10 meters, and almost exactly 1 hour is almost exactly 3,600 seconds. So the numerical value of the velocity during that time is

(10) / (3,600) = almost exactly 0.00278 m/s

= 2.78 x 10^-3 m/s.
