A mass of 0.5 kg stretches a spring 0.09 m. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 38 N when the mass has a velocity of 4 ms. The viscous resistance is proportional to the speed of the object. Suppose the object is displaced an additional 0.08 m and released. Find an function to express the object's displacement from the spring's natural position, in m after t seconds. Let positive displacements indicate a stretched spring, and use 9.8 ms2 as the acceleration due to gravity. u(t) =

A mass weighing 4 pound is attached to a spring whose spring constant is 2 lb/ft. The medium offers a damping force that is numerically equal to the instantaneous velocity. The mass is initially released from 1 foot above the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 14 ft/s. Determine the time at which mass passes through the equilibrium position. (Use g = 32 ft/s^2 for acceleration due to gravity.)

Find the time (in s) after mass passes through the equilibrium position at which the mass attains its extreme displacement from the equilibrium position.

What is the position of the mass at this instant?

A force of 5 pounds stretches a spring 1 foot. A mass weighing 6.4 pounds is attached to the spring, and the system is then immersed in a medium that offers a damping force numerically equal to 1.2 times the instantaneous velocity. (a) Find the equation of motion if mass is initially from the rest from a point 1 foot above the equilibrium position. (b) Express the equation of motion in the form x(t) = Ae^(-lambda*t) sin(sqrt(w^2 - lambda^2 )t + phi) (c) Find the first time at which mass passes through the equilibrium position heading upward.

(a) In a minor rail yard accident, a runaway goods truck of mass 1.85×104 kg collides at u = 20.0 ms−1 with a stationary truck of mass 2.20×104 kg, as shown in Figure 3. The trucks lock together and travel at the same speed after the collision. Assume friction is negligible. Figure 3 Sketch of the runaway and stationary goods trucks, for use in Question 10. (i) Show that the speed of the trucks after the collision is 9.14 ms−1. (ii) One of the truck wheels can be modelled as a solid disk of radius 4.60×10−1 m and moment of inertia 36.5 kgm2. Calculate the magnitude of the wheel's angular momentum after the collision. (iii) The truck's linear velocity vector is in the positive x-direction using the Cartesian coordinate system shown in Figure 3. What is the direction of the wheel's angular momentum vector? Briefly explain your reasoning. (b) The train driver sounds the train's whistle. The whistle is a pipe that is open at one end and closed at the other, and it has a length of 0.480 m. The speed of sound in air is 343 ms−1. (i) Sketch the standing wave pattern of the air pressure in the whistle for its fundamental resonant frequency. Clearly indicate the open and closed ends of the whistle pipe. (ii) Hence calculate the frequency of the sound made by the whistle's fundamental resonance. (c) An observer standing on a bridge above the train track hears the whistle as the train approaches at a speed of 40.0 ms−1. (i) Show that the whistle frequency perceived by the observer is 13.2% greater than the frequency perceived by the driver. (ii) Describe how the sound of the whistle, as heard by the observer, will change as the train approaches and goes past the bridge.
