Answers
The maximum acceleration of the oscillator is 1.48 m/s²
Simple harmonic motion is a particular kind of periodic motion in which the restoring force on the moving item is inversely proportional to the size of the displacement and acts in the direction of the object's equilibrium position.
A periodic variable's amplitude is a gauge of its change over a single period.
The amplitude of a simple harmonic motion, A = 15 cm = 0.15 m
The frequency, f = 30 oscillations per minute = 30/60 = 1/2
The maximum acceleration of the oscillator is given as:
a = A × ω²
Now the formula for angular frequency is:
ω = 2πf
Therefore,
a = A × ( 2πf )²
Substituting the values in the equation,
a = 0.15 × ( 2 × π × 1/2 )²
a = 0.15 × π²
a = 1.48 m/s²

The hanging mass m1 remains unchanged. The two blocks on the inclined plane are sliding down the incline with the same acceleration a=0.31 m/s^2Find02.the coefficient of kinetic friction.03.what is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the two identical blocks (m2) so that they move together?
Answers
Question 1.
The free body diagrams of the situation are shown below:
The forces applied on m1 are in only the y direction then we only have one equation of motion to get it we use Newton's Second law. Then we have:
[tex]T-W_1=m_1a[/tex]The forces applied on m2 are in the x and y direction, this means that we have two equations of motion. We don't expect this block to move on the y-direction (which we defined); this means that the acceleration in this direction has to be zero. Furthermore, since the blocks m1 and m2 are attach thorugh the rope their acceleration has to be the same; this means that the acceleration of block m2 in the x direction has to be a. Applying this and Newton's second law we have for block 2:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (W_2)_x+f_f-T=m_2a \\ N-(W_2)_y=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]where (W2)x and (W2)y denote the component of the weight in the x and y direction, respectively. Now, since block m2 is on the verge of sliding this means that the system is in equilibrium, that is, the acceleration of the system is equal to zero. Then we have that the equations above take the form:
[tex]\begin{gathered} T-W_1=0 \\ (W_2)_x+f_f-T=0 \\ N-(W_2)_y=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]To determine the coefficient of static friction we firs need to determine the force of fricction. To do this we first solve the first equation for T:
[tex]T=W_1[/tex]Now we plug this value in the second equation and solve for the force of friction:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (W_2)_x+f_f-W_1=0 \\ f_f=W_1-(W_2)_x \end{gathered}[/tex]Now we need to remember that the force of friction can be obtain by:
[tex]f_f=\mu_{}N[/tex]where mu is the coefficient of friction (this rule applies for static and kinetic friction). Then we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \mu N=W_1-(W_2)_x_{} \\ \mu=\frac{W_1-(W_2)_x}{N} \end{gathered}[/tex]To find the normal force we use the third equation of motion:
[tex]N=(W_2)_y[/tex]Hence we have:
[tex]\mu=\frac{W_1-(W_2)_x}{(W_2)_y}[/tex]Now we need to remember that the components of the weight on an inclined plane are given by:
[tex]\begin{gathered} W_x=W\sin \theta \\ W_y=W\cos \theta \end{gathered}[/tex]where theta is the angle of the plane.
Plugging this on the expression for the coefficient of friction:
[tex]\mu=\frac{W_1-W_2\sin \theta}{W_2\cos \theta}[/tex]Finally we plug the values given to find the coefficient:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \mu=\frac{(1.6)(9.8)-(2.1)(9.8)\sin 35}{(2.1)(9.8)\cos 35} \\ \mu=0.23 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the coefficient of static friction is 0.23
Question 2
For this question we are going to look at the two block in the inclined plane as one block with mass of 4.2 kg and we are going to name the two blocks as m2.
The free body diagram in this case is:
Applying Newton's second law in each mass lead to the system of equations:
[tex]\begin{gathered} T-W_1=m_1a \\ (W_2)_x-f_f-T=m_2a \\ N-(W_2)_y=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]From the first equation of motion we have:
[tex]T=W_1+m_1a[/tex]Plugging this in the second equation:
[tex](W_2)_x-f_f-W_1-m_1a=m_2a[/tex]but we know that:
[tex]f_f=\mu_{}N[/tex]and:
[tex]N=(W_2)_y[/tex]Then we have:
[tex](W_2)_x-\mu(W_2)_y-W_1-m_1a=m_2a[/tex]Solving for the coefficient and using the expression for the wight on an inclined plane we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (W_2)_x-\mu(W_2)_y-W_1-m_1a=m_2a \\ \mu=\frac{W_2\sin \theta-W_1-m_1a-m_2a}{W_2\cos \theta} \end{gathered}[/tex]Plugging the values given we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \mu=\frac{(4.2)(9.8)\sin 35-(1.6)(9.8)-(1.6)(0.31)-(4.2)(0.31)}{(4.2)(9.8)\cos 35} \\ \mu=0.18 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.18.
Question 3.
To find the coefficient of static friction between the two blocks on the inclined plane we need that the upper block to be stationary with respect to the lower block, that means that the friction has to be equal to the weight in the x-direction, that is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} f_f=W_2\sin 35 \\ \mu W_2\cos 35=W_2\sin 35 \\ \mu=\frac{\sin 35}{\cos 35} \\ \mu=0.7 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the coefficient between the blocks has to be at least 0.7

A plant that is 4.1 cm tall is 10.3 cm from a converging lens. You observe that the image of this plant is upright and 6.2 cm tall. What is the focal length of the lens?
Answers
We know that the magnification is given by:
[tex]M=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}[/tex]where h is the height of the object and h' is the height of the image, then in this case we have:
[tex]M=\frac{6.2}{4.1}[/tex]On the other hand we also know that the magnification is given by:
[tex]M=-\frac{i}{o}[/tex]where i is the distance of the image to lens and o is the distance of the object to the lens. From this we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{6.2}{4.1}=-\frac{i}{10.3} \\ i=-\frac{10.3\cdot6.2}{4.1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Once we have the distance of the image we can use the lens equation to find the focal point:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{10.3}+\frac{1}{-\frac{10.3\cdot6.2}{4.1}}=\frac{1}{f} \\ \frac{1}{10.3}-\frac{4.1}{10.3\cdot6.2}=\frac{1}{f} \\ f=(\frac{1}{10.3}-\frac{4.1}{10.3\cdot6.2})^{-1} \\ f=30.41 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the focal distance of the lens is 30.41 cm and this can be round to 30 cm, hence the answer is D

The press box at a basketball park is 38.0 ft above the ground.
A reporter in the press box looks at an angle of 15 degrees below the horizontal to see the second base.
Let us draw the diagram to better understand the problem.
Here x is the horizontal distance from the press box to the second base.
With respect to angle 15°, the opposite side is 38 ft and the adjacent side is x.
Recall from the trigonometric ratios,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan \theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ \tan 15\degree=\frac{38}{x} \\ x=\frac{38}{\tan 15\degree} \\ x=141.8\; ft \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the horizontal distance from the press box to the second base is 141.8 ft.
this is a 3 part questionplease see picture for part A73) The human brain consumes about 22 W of power under normal conditions, though more power may be required during exams.(a) For what amount of time can one Snickers bar (see the note following Problem 48) power the normally functioning brain(one bar provides 280 calories)? (b) At what rate must you lift a 3.6-kg container of milk (one gallon) if the power output of your arm is to be 22 W? (C) How much time does it take to lift the milk container through a distance of 1.0 m at this rate?
Answers
Given,
The power consumed by a brain, P=22 W
The energy per bar, E=280 calories=280×4184=1171.52 kJ
The mass of a milk container, m=3.6 kg
The power output of the arm, P₀=22 W
The distance through which the container needs to be lifted, d=1.0 m
a)
The power is given by,
[tex]P=\frac{E}{t}[/tex]Where t is the time.
On substituting the known values in the above equation,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 22=\frac{1171.52\times10^3}{t} \\ \Rightarrow t=\frac{1171.52\times10^3}{22} \\ =53250\text{ s} \end{gathered}[/tex]That is,
[tex]\frac{53250}{3600}=14.79\text{ hr}[/tex]Therefore one snicker bar can power the brain for 14.79 hr
b)
The power output can also be calculated using the formula,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=F\times v \\ =mg\times v \end{gathered}[/tex]Where F is the force applied by the container on the arm, v is the rate at which the container must be lifted, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
On substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 22=3.6\times9.8\times v \\ v=\frac{22}{3.6\times9.8} \\ =0.62\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus the rate at which the milk container must be lifted is 0.62 m/s
c)
The rate at which the container must be lifted is given by,
[tex]v=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]Where t is the time it takes to lift the container at the calculated rate.
On substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.62=\frac{1}{t} \\ \Rightarrow t=\frac{1}{0.62} \\ =1.61\text{ s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus it takes 1.61 s to lift the container through 1 m at the given rate.
Prove that the area of the parallelogram is equal to | A × B |
Answers
The area of a paralellogram with base a and height h is given by:
[tex]A=h\cdot a[/tex]If two adjacent sides of a parallelogram have lengths a and b and are separated by an angle φ, then the base of the parallelogram is a and the height is given by b*sin(φ). Then, the area of the parallelogram is given by:
[tex]A=a\cdot b\cdot\sin (\phi)[/tex]On the other hand, the cross product of two vectors is defined as:
[tex]\vec{a}\times\vec{b}=a\cdot b\cdot\sin (\phi)\hat{n}[/tex]Where the unitary vector is directed toward the direction perpendicular to a and b according to the right hand rule.
The modulus of the cross product of a and b is:
[tex]|\vec{a}\times\vec{b}|=a\cdot b\cdot\sin (\phi)[/tex]We can see that both the area of the parallelogram and the modulus of the cross product have the same expressions. Therefore:
[tex]A=|\vec{a}\times\vec{b}|[/tex]A force F1 of magnitude 4.80 units acts on an object at the origin in a direction = 27.0° above the positive x-axis. (See the figure below.) A second force F2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the object in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find graphically the magnitude and direction of the resultant force F1 + F2.magnitude unitsdirection ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis
Answers
We will determine the magnitude of the final component as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\sqrt{(5cos(27))^2+(5sin(27)+4.8)^2}\Rightarrow m=8.356527029... \\ \\ \Rightarrow m\approx8.36 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the magnitude is approximately 8.36.
And the direction will be approximately 57.8° counter-clockwise.
This can be seeing as follows:
what is the wavelength of 2.6 million Hz ultrasound as it travels through human tissue ?
Answers
The wavelength of ultrasound waves can be given as,
[tex]\lambda=\frac{v}{f}[/tex]The speed of waves in human tissue is 1540 m/s.
Plug in the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \lambda=\frac{1540\text{ m/s}}{(2.6\text{ million Hz)(}\frac{10^6}{1\text{ million}})}(\frac{10^3\text{ mm}}{1\text{ m}}) \\ =0.592\text{ mm} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the wavelength of waves in human tissue is 0.592 m.
