Cevap: 18

Cevap

18.0 m/s^2
The magnitude of acceleration in simple harmonic motion is calculated using a=ω2xa = \omega^2 x. Substituting ω=6.0 rad/s\omega = 6.0\text{ rad/s} and x=0.50 mx = 0.50\text{ m} gives a=(6.0)2×0.50=36×0.50=18.0 m/s2a = (6.0)^2 \times 0.50 = 36 \times 0.50 = 18.0\text{ m/s}^2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the formula relating acceleration to angular frequency and displacement in SHM.
a=ω2xa = \omega^2 x
In simple harmonic motion, the magnitude of acceleration is directly proportional to displacement from the equilibrium position.
2
Substitute the given physical values into the equation.
a=(6.0)2×0.50a = (6.0)^2 \times 0.50
The given values are angular frequency ω=6.0 rad/s\omega = 6.0\text{ rad/s} and displacement x=0.50 mx = 0.50\text{ m}.
3
Compute the numerical product.
a=18.0 m/s2a = 18.0\text{ m/s}^2
Squaring 6.06.0 yields 3636, and multiplying by 0.500.50 gives 18.018.0.

A simple pendulum of fixed length ll carries a bob of mass mm and oscillates with a period TT. If the bob is replaced by another bob of mass 2m2m while maintaining the exact same string length, what is the new period of oscillation?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: TT

Cevap

The new period of oscillation remains TT.
The period of oscillation for a simple pendulum undergoing small displacement SHM is given by T=2πlgT = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}. The mass of the bob mm is not a parameter in this equation. Therefore, altering the mass while keeping length ll constant leaves the period unchanged as TT.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the governing equation for the period of a simple pendulum executing simple harmonic motion.
T=2πlgT = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}
To analyze which physical parameters determine the period of the simple pendulum.
2
Check for mass dependence in the formula.
The mass variable mm does not appear in T=2πlgT = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}.
The restoring gravitational force and inertia both scale linearly with mass, causing mass to cancel out entirely.
3
Determine the period after doubling the mass at constant length.
The new period is equal to TT.
Since length ll and acceleration due to gravity gg are constant, changing the mass from mm to 2m2m has no effect on period.

Cevap: 0.025

Cevap

The maximum kinetic energy of the particle is 0.025 J0.025\text{ J}.
The maximum kinetic energy occurs at the equilibrium position where speed reaches its maximum value vmax=ωAv_{\text{max}} = \omega A. Substituting ω=2π0.20π=10 rad/s\omega = \frac{2\pi}{0.20\pi} = 10\text{ rad/s} into the maximum speed formula gives vmax=10×0.05=0.50 m/sv_{\text{max}} = 10 \times 0.05 = 0.50\text{ m/s}. Computing kinetic energy yields Ek=12(0.20)(0.50)2=0.025 JE_k = \frac{1}{2} (0.20) (0.50)^2 = 0.025\text{ J}.

A body of mass 0.40 kg0.40\text{ kg} is attached to a light helical spring and set into simple harmonic motion. If the system oscillates with a period of 0.40π s0.40\pi\text{ s}, what is the force constant of the spring in N/m\text{N/m}?

Cevap: 10

Cevap

The force constant of the spring is 10 N/m10\text{ N/m}.
The period of a mass-spring system undergoing simple harmonic motion is given by T=2πmkT = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}. Substituting m=0.40 kgm = 0.40\text{ kg} and T=0.40π sT = 0.40\pi\text{ s} yields 0.40π=2π0.40k0.40\pi = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.40}{k}}. Dividing both sides by 2π2\pi gives 0.20=0.40k0.20 = \sqrt{\frac{0.40}{k}}. Squaring both sides yields 0.04=0.40k0.04 = \frac{0.40}{k}, which gives k=10 N/mk = 10\text{ N/m}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the period relationship for a spring-mass SHM system
T=2πmkT = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}
This formula relates the period of oscillation TT to the mass mm and spring constant kk.
2
Substitute the given mass and period into the equation
0.40π=2π0.40k0.40\pi = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.40}{k}}
Given that m=0.40 kgm = 0.40\text{ kg} and T=0.40π sT = 0.40\pi\text{ s}.
3
Simplify the equation by isolating the square root term
0.40k=0.20\sqrt{\frac{0.40}{k}} = 0.20
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2π2\pi isolates the radical.
4
Square both sides and solve for the spring constant kk
k=10 N/mk = 10\text{ N/m}
Squaring yields 0.04=0.40k0.04 = \frac{0.40}{k}, which rearranges to k=0.400.04=10 N/mk = \frac{0.40}{0.04} = 10\text{ N/m}.

A particle executes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 0.10 m0.10\text{ m}. At what displacement from its equilibrium position, in meters, is the kinetic energy of the particle equal to three times its potential energy?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.05

Cevap

The displacement from the equilibrium position is 0.05 m0.05\text{ m}.
In simple harmonic motion, potential energy is Ep=12kx2E_p = \frac{1}{2}kx^2 and kinetic energy is Ek=12k(A2x2)E_k = \frac{1}{2}k(A^2 - x^2). Setting Ek=3EpE_k = 3E_p gives A2x2=3x2A^2 - x^2 = 3x^2, which simplifies to A2=4x2A^2 = 4x^2, or x=A2x = \frac{A}{2}. Given an amplitude A=0.10 mA = 0.10\text{ m}, the displacement is x=0.10 m2=0.05 mx = \frac{0.10\text{ m}}{2} = 0.05\text{ m}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Set up the relation between kinetic energy and potential energy using the given condition.
Ek=3Ep    12k(A2x2)=3(12kx2)E_k = 3E_p \implies \frac{1}{2}k(A^2 - x^2) = 3\left(\frac{1}{2}kx^2\right)
In simple harmonic motion, energy is partitioned between kinetic and potential forms based on displacement xx.
2
Solve the algebraic equation for displacement xx in terms of amplitude AA.
A2x2=3x2    A2=4x2    x=A2A^2 - x^2 = 3x^2 \implies A^2 = 4x^2 \implies x = \frac{A}{2}
Canceling the common factor 12k\frac{1}{2}k isolates the geometric parameters AA and xx.
3
Substitute the known amplitude value into the expression for xx.
x=0.10 m2=0.05 mx = \frac{0.10\text{ m}}{2} = 0.05\text{ m}
Plugging in A=0.10 mA = 0.10\text{ m} yields the required displacement.
