E = ½KA^2 is the mechanical energy of any oscillator.  It is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy.  When amplitude A decreases by 3%, then

(E2-E1)/E1 = {½K(A2^2/A1^2) }/ ½K(A1^2)

= {(A2^2 – A1^2) / (A1^2)}

= 97^2 – 100^2/100^2

= 5.91% of the mechanical energy is lost each cycle.

Answer:

P_{out} = 0.100 W = 100 mW

Explanation:

The attached image shows the system expressed in the question.

We can define an expression for the system.

The equivalent equation for the system would be

G_{total} = G_{1} + G_{2} + G_{3}\\G_{total} = -16dB+20dB-10 dB = -6 dB

so, the input signal could be expressed in dB terms

P_{in} [dB] = 10 log_{10}(P_{in}) \\P_{in} [dB] = 10 log_{10}(0.4)\\P_{in} [dB] = -3.97 dB (1)

so the output signal could be expressed as.

P_{out} = P_{in} + G_{1} + G_{2} + G_{3}\\P_{out} = -3.97 dB - 6dB = -9.97 dB

The gain should be expressed in dB terms and power in dBm terms so

P_{out} = -9.97 + 30 = 20.03 dBm

using the (1) equation to find it in terms of Watts

P_{out} = 0.100 W = 100 mW

irina [24]

Answer:

a = 15.1 g

Explanation:

The relation between mass and acceleration is given by :

m\propto \dfrac{1}{a}

If a₁ = 0.80g, m₁ = 1510 kg, m₂ = 80 kg, we need to find a₂

So,

\dfrac{m_1}{m_2}=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{a_1m_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{0.8g\times 1510}{80}\\\\a_2=15.1g

So, the car's acceleration would be 15.1 g.

You are piloting a small airplane in which you want to reach a destination that is 750 km due north of your starting location. O
alexira [117]

Answer:

v_wind = 101.46 km / h   ,  θ = 61.8

Explanation:

This is a velocity composition exercise.

Let's do the problem in parts. Let's start by knowing the speed of the plane without air.

           v = d / t

           v = 750 / 3.14

           v = 238.85 km / h

This is the speed of the plane relative to the Earth and it does not change.

In the second part, when there is wind, the travel time is greater than when there is no wind, therefore the wind delays the plane. To be more general, suppose that the wind has two components vₓ and v_{y}

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the plane's speed

          cos θ = v_N / v

          sin θ  = v_W / v

          v_N = v cos θ

          v_W = v sin θ

           

let's calculate

          V _N = 238.85 cos 22 = 221.46 km / h

           v_W = -238.85 sin 22 = -89.47

the negative sign is because the plane is going west and the positive sign is the east direction.

As it indicates that the destination of the avine is towards the north, the x component of the wind must be

              vₓ - v_W = 0

              vₓ = v-w

              vₓ = 89.47 km / h

in the direction to the East.

Now let's analyze the component of the wind in the Nort-South direction,

Indicate the travel time, let's calculate the speed that the component must have the speed of the plane

             v_total = d / t

             v_total = 750 / 4.32

             v_total = 173.61 km / h

This is the final speed of the plane, which can be written

              v_total = v_n - vy

               vy = v_n - v_total

               vy = 221.46 - 173.61

               vy = 47.85 km

this component is directed towards the south

Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem, to find the magnitude

             v_wind² = vₓ² + vy²

             v_wind = √ (89.47² + 47.85²)

             v_wind = 101.46 km / h

the address will then be found using trigonometry

             θ = Vy / vx

             θ = tan⁻¹ (vy / vx)

             θ = tan⁻¹1 (47.85 / 89.47)

             θ = 28.14

Therefore, the magnitude of the wind speed is 101.5 km / h and its direction is 28º south of the East, to give this value

                  90- θtea = 90- 28.2

                  θ = 61.8

East of South

A small child gives a plastic frog a big push at the bottom of a slippery 2.0 meter long, 1.0 meter high ramp, starting it with
valentinak56 [21]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Because the ramp is slippery, ignore dynamic friction.
Let m =  the mass of the frog.
g = 9.8 m/s²

The KE (kinetic energy) at the bottom of the ramp is
KE₁ = (1/2)*(m kg)*(5 m/s)² = 12.5 m J

Let v =  the velocity at the top of the ramp.
The KE at the top of the ramp is
KE₂ = (1/2)*m*v²= 0.5 mv² J
The PE (potential energy) at the top of the ramp relative to the bottom is
PE₂ = (m kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1 m) = 9.8m J

Conservation of energy requires that
KE₁ = KE₂ + PE₂
12.5m = 0.5mv² + 9.8m
0.5v² = 2.7
v = 2.324 m/s

Answer: 2.324 m/s
