An ultrasonic transducer, of the type used in medical ultrasound imaging, is a very thin disk m=0.10gdriven back and forth in SHMat 1.0MHzby an electromagnetic coil.

a. The maximum restoring force that can be applied to the disk without breaking it is 40,000N. What is the maximum oscillation amplitude that won't rupture the disk?

b. What is the disk's maximum speed at this amplitude?

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Oscillation: 

The process of recurring changes of any quantity or measure around its equilibrium value in time is defined as oscillation. A periodic change of a matter between two values or about its central value is also known as oscillation.

02

Concepts and Principles of Newton's second law, Speed and Acceleration and Angular frequency:

1- Newton's second law : The net force Fon a body with mass mis related to the body's acceleration aby:

F=ma

2- The maximum transverse speed and acceleration of a particle in simple hormonic motion are found in terms of the angular speed wand amplitude Aas follows:

vmax=wAamax=w2A

3- The angular frequency wof a wave is related to the frequency f by:

w=2Ï€f

03

Given data: 

  • The mass of the disk: m=(0.10g)1kg1000g=0.10×10-3kg
  • The frequency of the disk is: f=1.0MHzz106Hzz1MHzz=1.0×106Hz
  • The maximum restoring force applied to the disk is:Fmax=40,000N
04

Part (a) To determine the maximum amplitude that won't rupture the disk:

(a) The maximum restoring force applied to the disk is related to the maximum acceleration of the disk by Newton's second law from Equation (1):

  • Fmax=mamax

Substitute for amaxfrom Equation (3):

  • Fmax=mw2A

Substitute for wfrom Equation (4):

  • role="math" localid="1649945464662" Fmax=m(2Ï€f)2A=4Ï€2mf2A
05

Solve A:

A=Fmax4Ï€2mf2

Now, Substitute numerical values: A=40,000N4π20.10×10-3kg1.0×106Hz2

=10.1×10-6m106μm1m

=10.1μm

06

Part (b) To determine the maximum speed of the disk:

The maximum speed of the disk is found from Equation (2):

  • vmax=wA

Substitute for wfrom Equation (4):

  • vmax=2Ï€fA
07

To solve:

Substitute numerical values:

vmax=2π1.0×106Hz10.1×10-6m=64m/s

08

Final Result:

The result of the maximum amplitude that won't rupture the disk and maximum speed of the disk is:

(a)A=10.1μm

(b)vmax=64m/s

A 5.0kgblock hangs from a spring with spring constant2000N/m. The block is pulled down from the equilibrium position and given an initial velocity of1.0m/sback toward equilibrium. What are the (a) frequency, (b) amplitude, and (c) total mechanical energy of the motion?

A block on a frictionless table is connected as shown in FIGURE P15.75 to two springs having spring constants k1and k2. Find an expression for the block’s oscillation frequency fin terms of the frequencies f1and f2at which it would oscillate if attached to spring 1or spring 2alone.

Your lab instructor has asked you to measure a spring constant using a dynamic method—letting it oscillate—rather than a static method of stretching it. You and your lab partner suspend the spring from a hook, hang different masses on the lower end, and start them oscillating. One of you uses a meter stick to measure the amplitude, the other uses a stopwatch to time 10oscillations.

Your data are as follows:

Use the best-fit line of an appropriate graph to determine the spring constant.

A block attached to a spring with unknown spring constant oscillates with a period of 2.0s.What is the period if

a. The mass is doubled?

b. The mass is halved?

c. The amplitude is doubled?

d. The spring constant is doubled? Parts a to d are independent questions, each referring to the initial situation.

a. When the displacement of a mass on a spring is 12A, what fraction of the energy is kinetic energy and what fraction is potential energy?

b. At what displacement, as a fraction of A, is the energy half kinetic and half potential?
