In Fig. 15-64, a 2500 Kgdemolition ball swings from the end of a crane. The length of the swinging segment of cable is 17m. (a) Find the period of the swinging, assuming that the system can be treated as a simple pendulum. (b) Does the period depend on the ball鈥檚 mass?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Period of swinging by assuming the system as a simple pendulum is .
  2. The period of a simple pendulum does not depend on the ball鈥檚 mass.

Step by step solution

01

The given data

  • Mass of the ball,(m)=2500kg.
  • Length of a cable,(L)=17m.
02

Understanding the concept of SHM

Using the formula of the period of the simple pendulum we can find the period of swinging, and hence, we can determine whether the period of the simple pendulum depends on the ball鈥檚 mass or not.

Formula:

The period of oscillation,

03

(a) Calculation of period 

From equation (i), we can find the period of oscillations of the ball as:

T=217M9.8M/S2=8.3S

Therefore, the period of swinging by assuming the system as a simple pendulum is 8.3S

04

(b) Checking whether the period of the ball depends on the ball’s mass or not

From equation (i) of the period of a body鈥檚 oscillation, it can be clearly seen that the term 鈥減eriod鈥 only depends on the body鈥檚 length and acceleration.

From this relation, we can say that period is independent of the mass because this equation does not contain term .

Question: In Figure, the block has a mass of 1.50kgand the spring constant is800 N/m. The damping force is given by -b(dx/dt), where b = 230 g/s. The block is pulled down 12.0 cmand released.

  1. Calculate the time required for the amplitude of the resulting oscillations to fall to one-third of its initial value.
  2. How many oscillations are made by the block in this time?

The center of oscillation of a physical pendulum has this interesting property: If an impulse (assumed horizontal and in the plane of oscillation) acts at the center of oscillation, no oscillations are felt at the point of support. Baseball players (and players of many other sports) know that unless the ball hits the bat at this point (called the 鈥渟weet spot鈥 by athletes), the oscillations due to the impact will sting their hands. To prove this property, let the stick in Fig. simulate a baseball bat. Suppose that a horizontal force F(due to impact with the ball) acts toward the right at P, the center of oscillation. The batter is assumed to hold the bat at O, the pivot point of the stick. (a) What acceleration does the point O undergo as a result ofF? (b) What angular acceleration is produced by Fabout the center of mass of the stick? (c) As a result of the angular acceleration in (b), what linear acceleration does point O undergo? (d) Considering the magnitudes and directions of the accelerations in (a) and (c), convince yourself that P is indeed the 鈥渟weet spot.

In Figure, a block weighing 14.0 N, which can slide without friction on

an incline at angle40.0, is connected to the top of the incline by a massless

spring of unstretched length 0.450 mand spring constant 120 N/m.

a) How far from the top of the incline is the block鈥檚 equilibrium point?

b) If the block is pulled slightly down the incline and released, what is the period

of the resulting oscillations?

A 0.10 kgblock oscillates back and forth along a straight line on a frictionless horizontal surface. Its displacement from the origin is given byx=(10cm)cos[(10rad/s)t+蟿蟿/2rad]. (a) What is the oscillation frequency? (b) What is the maximum speed acquired by the block? (c) At what value of x does this occur? (d) What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the block? (e) At what value of x does this occur? (f) What force, applied to the block by the spring, results in the given oscillation?
