- Figure P13.74 shows a crude model of an insect wing. The mass m represents the entire mass of the wing, which pivots about the fulcrum F. The spring represents the surrounding connective tissue. Motion of the wing corresponds to vibration of the spring. Suppose the mass of the wing is 0.30 g and the effective spring constant of the tissue is 4.7 104 N/m. If the mass m moves up and down a distance of 2.0 mm from its position of equilibrium, what is the maximum speed of the outer tip of the wing?

(b) By what amount is the spring stretched during the time that the elevator car is accelerating?arrow_forwardIn an engine, a piston oscillates with simpler harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x=5.00cos(2t+6) where x is in centimeters and t is in seconds.

Find (c) the kinetic energy and (d) the potential energy when its position is 3.00 cm.arrow_forwardEngineering Application Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.00105kg on springs that have adjustable force constants. Its function is to dampen wind—driven oscillations of the building by oscillating at the same frequency as the building is being driven—the driving force is transferred to the object, which oscillates instead of the entire building. (a) What effective force constant should the springs have to make the object oscillate with a period of 2.00 s? (b) What energy is stored in the springs for a 2.00-m displacement from equilibrium?arrow_forward
- Use the position data for the block given in Table P16.59. Sketch a graph of the blocks a. position versus time, b. velocity versus time and c. acceleration versus time. There is no need to label the values of velocity or acceleration on those graphs. TABLE P16.59arrow_forwardA mass is placed on a frictionless, horizontal table. A spring (k=100N/m) , which can be stretched or compressed, is placed on the table. A 5.00-kg mass is attached to one end of the spring, the other end is anchored to the wall.

Find its position 84.4 s later, (d) Find the distance traveled by the object in part (c). (e) Why are the answers to parts (a) and (c) so different when the initial data in parts (a) and (c) are so similar and the answers to parts (b) and (d) are relatively close? Does this circumstance reveal a fundamental difficulty in calculating the future?arrow_forwardA block of unknown mass is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 6.50 N/m and undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 10.0 cm.
