Answer to Problem 61P

The elastic potential energy is a sinusoidal curve with amplitude 116mJ and time period 250 ms.

Explanation of Solution

The mass of the object is 230.0g, the frequency of oscillation is 2.00Hz and the amplitude of the oscillation is 8.00cm.

Write the expression for elastic potential energy

U(t)=12kx2                                                                            (I)

Here, U(t) is the elastic potential energy, k is the spring constant and x is the position.

Write the given expression for position as a function of time.

x(t)=Asin(ωt)                                                    (II)

Here, ω is the angular frequency of the spring, A is the amplitude of the oscillation of the spring and t is the time.

Substitute (II) in (I)

U(t)=12kA2sin2(ωt)                                                                            (III)

Write the expression for spring constant

k=mω2                                                                          (IV)

Here, m is the mass of the object on the spring.

Write the expression for angular frequency

ω=2πf(rad/cycle)                                                                          (V)

Here, f is the frequency of oscillation.

Substitute 2.00Hz for f in the above equation to find ω

ω=(2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz

Substitute 230.0g for m, (2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz for ω in (IV) to find k.

k=230.0×103kg((2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz)2=36.3Nm1

Substitute 36.3Nm1 for k, 8.00cm for A and (2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz for ω in (III) to find U(t)

U(t)=12(36.3Nm1)(8.00cm)2sin2((2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz×t)=12(36.3Nm1)(8.00×102m)2sin2((2π rads1)×2.00Hz×t)=(116×103Nm)sin2[(12.56 s1)t]=(116mJ)sin2[(12.56 s1)t]

The time period of the square of a sine curve is half of the time period of the sine curve.

Write the expression for time period of the potential energy

TP=πω                                                                         (VI)

Here, TP is the time period.

Substitute  (2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz for ω in (VI) to find TP

TP=π(2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz=(2π rads1)×2.00Hz=250ms

Use the above obtained expression for U(t) and TP to plot the graph.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 61P

The kinetic energy curve is a cosine curve with amplitude 116mJ and time period 250 ms.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression for kinetic energy

K(t)=12mvx2                                                                            (VII)

Here, K(t) is the kinetic energy and vx is the velocity.

Differentiate (I) to find vx

dxdt=ddt(Asin(ωt))

vx=Aωcos(ωt)                                                    (VIII)

Square (VIII) and substitute in (VII)

K(t)=12m(Aω)2cos2(ωt)                                                                            (IX)

Substitute 230.0g for m, 8.00cm for A and (2π rad/cycle)×2.00Hz for ω in (IX) to find K(t)

K(t)=12{(230.0g)((8.00cm)(2π rad/cycle)(2.00Hz))2cos2((2π rad/cycle)(2.00Hz)t)}=12{(230.0×103kg)(8.00×102m(2π rads1)(2.00Hz))2cos2((2π rads1)(2.00Hz)t)}=(116×103Nm)cos2[(12.56 s1)t]=(116mJ)cos2[(12.56 s1)t]

The time period of the square of a cosine curve is half of the time period of the cosine curve.

Write the expression for time period of the potential energy

TK=πω                                                                         (X)

Here, TK is the time period of the kinetic energy curve.

Equation (VI) and (X) are the same and hence TP and TK are the same.

TK=250ms

Use the above obtained expression for K(t) and the value of TK to plot the graph.

(c)

To determine

A plot of the total energy versus time.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 61P

The total energy curve is a straight line parallel to the time-axis with a y-intercept of 116mJ.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression for total energy

E(t)=U(t)+K(t)                                                                            (XI)

Here, E(t) is the total energy.

Substitute the obtained expression of U(t) and K(t) in (XI)

E(t)=(116mJ)sin2[(12.56 s1)t]+(116mJ)cos2[(12.56 s1)t]=(116mJ){sin2[(12.56 s1)t]+cos2[(12.56 s1)t]}=(116mJ)(1)=116mJ

Thus, energy is constant and hence it is a straight line parallel to the time axis. (Refer figure 3)

(d)

To determine

The effect of a friction on the above results.

(d)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 61P

All three energies of the spring approaches zero.

Explanation of Solution

When the frictional forces are included, the system is no more conservative and it is called a non-conservative system. The energy of the system is not conserved.

If the horizontal surface is not considered as frictionless, then the surface resists the oscillatory motion of the spring and thereby reducing its kinetic energy.  A part of the kinetic energy is lost in the form of heat and consequently the all three energy of the system reduces to zero.

You have just bought a new bicycle. On your first riding trip, it seems that the bike comes to rest relatively quickly after you stop pedaling and let the bicycle coast on flat ground. You call the bicycle shop from which you purchased the vehicle and describe the problem. The technician says that they will replace the bearings in the wheels or do whatever else is necessary if you can prove that the frictional torque in the axle of the wheels is worse than -0.02 N . m. At first, you are discouraged by the technical sound of what you have been told and by the absence of any tool to measure torque in your garage. But then you remember that you are taking a physics class! You take your bike into the garage, turn it upside down and start spinning the wheel while you think about how to determine the frictional torque. The driveway outside the garage had a small puddle, so you notice that droplets of water are flying off the edge of one point on the tire tangentially, including drops that…
