A compact car has a mass of 1380 kg . Assume that the car has one spring on each wheel, that the springs are identical, and that

astraxan [27]

Answer:

A) $k=34867.3384\ N.m^{-1}$

B) $\omega'\approx84\ Hz$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car, $m=1380\ kg$

frequency of spring oscillation, $f=1.6\ Hz$

We knkow the formula for spring oscillation frequency:

$\omega=2\pi.f$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{m} } =2\pi.f$

$\sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{1380} } =2\times \pi\times 1.6$

$k_{eq}=139469.3537\ N.m^{-1}$

Now as we know that the springs are in parallel and their stiffness constant gets added up in parallel.

<u>So, the stiffness of each spring is (as they are identical):</u>

$k=\frac{k_{eq}}{4}$

$k=\frac{139469.3537}{4}$

$k=34867.3384\ N.m^{-1}$

given that 4 passengers of mass 70 kg each are in the car, then the oscillation frequency:

$\omega'=\sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{(m+70\times 4)} }$

$\omega'=\sqrt{\frac{139469.3537}{(1380+280)} }$

$\omega'\approx84\ Hz$

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement d = (23 m) i - (9 m) j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which

Sav [38]

Answer:

Work = 5941 J

Explanation:

As we know that work done is given by the equation

$W = F. d$

here we know that

$F = (200 N)\hat i - (149 N) \hat j$

also we have

$d = (23m) \hat i - (9 m)\hat j$

now from above formula we have

$W = (200 N\hat i - 149 N \hat j).(23 m\hat i - 9m \hat j)$

$W = 5941 J$

In practice, if a voltmeter was connected across any combination of the terminals, the potential difference would be less than w

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.

Explanation:

A voltmeter is built by a galvanometer and a resistance in series, this set is connected in parallel to the resistance where the voltage is to be measured, therefore the voltage is divided between the voltmeter and the element to be measured, consequently the measured voltage It is less than the calculated one, since for them the resistance of the voltmeter is assumed infinite.

This difference is kept to a minimum because the resistance in transformers is a few tens of ohms and the resistance of modern voltmeters is of the order of MΩ.
