What mass needs to be attached to a spring with a force constant of 7N/m in order to make a simple harmonic oscillator oscillate

Answer:

Mass will be 4.437 kg

Explanation:

We have given force constant k = 7 N/m

Time period of oscillation T = 5 sec

So angular frequency \omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{5}=1.256rad/sec

We know that angular frequency is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

1.256 =\sqrt{\frac{7}{m}}

Squaring both side

1.577 =\frac{7}{m}

m = 4.437 kg

A coffee cup on the horizontal dashboard of a car slides forward when the driver decelerates from 45 kmh to rest in 3.5 s or les
Svetach [21]

Answer:

μs = 0.36

Explanation:

Assuming no other forces acting on the cup while the car is decelerating, the friction force is responsible for any horizontal movement of the cup.

If the cup is on the verge of starting to slide, the friction force can be expressed as follows:

Ff = -μs*N = -μs*m*g

This force produces a deceleration from 45 Kmh to rest, in 3.5 s or  more.

Converting 45 kmh to m/s, we have:

45 kmh *\frac{1000m}{1km} * \frac{1h}{3600 s} = 12.5 m/s

We can find the acceleration, just applying the definition, with vf =0, as follows:

a = \frac{-vf}{t} =\frac{-12.5m/s}{3.5s} = -3.57 m/s2

According to Newton's 2nd law, we can write the following expression:

F = m*a = -μs*m*g

Simplifying common terms, we can solve for μs, as follows:

μs = \frac{a}{-g} =\frac{-3.57 m/s2}{-9.80m/s2} = 0.36

For sprinters running at 12 m/s around a curved track of radius 26 m, how much greater (as a percentage) is the average total fo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

114.86%

Explanation:

In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:

Fy = mg

When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:

Fx = mv²/r

The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²

F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)

F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)

Compared to just the vertical force:

F / Fy

m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg

√((v²/r)² + g²) / g

Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:

√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8

1.1486

The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).

A transverse wave is traveling from north to south. Which statement could be true for the motion of the wave particles in the me
Vikki [24]
Transverse waves travel on a direction that is perpendicular to the motion of the particles (or whatever medium is waving)  So the particles must be moving east to west, which is transverse to the north-south motion of the wave

A rock is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 19.6 m/s. What time interval elapses between the rock’s being thrown an
inna [77]

Answer:

It will take 4 sec rock to comes its original point

Explanation:

It is given that the rock comes to its original point

So displacement S = 0 m

Initial velocity u = 19.6 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

According to second equation of motion h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

0=19.6\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2

19.6=4.9t

t = 4 sec

A person is nearsighted with a far point of 75.0 cm. a. What focal length contact lens is needed to give him normal vision
BigorU [14]

Complete Question

The  complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a

  f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

b

  P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  image distance is  d_i =  -75 cm

The value of the image is negative because it is on the same side with the corrective glasses

    The  object distance is  d_o =  \infty

The  reason object distance  is because the object father than it being picture by the eye

General focal length is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{d_i}  -   \frac{1}{d_o}

substituting values

             \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{-75}  -   \frac{1}{\infty}

=>         f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

Generally the power of the corrective lens is  mathematically represented as

        P  =  \frac{1}{f}

substituting values

       P  =  \frac{1}{-0.75}

        P  =  -1.33 \ diopters
