8. The power output, P, in Watts of an electric generator varies sinusoidally over the course of a day, with a
period of a day. The output is a minimum of 200 watts at midnight and the maximum output is 800 watts.
Let t be the number of hours since midnight.
What is the average power output? What's the amplitude?
Draw the graph of P against t over two days.
Find a formula for P n terms of t. Is it easier to modify a sine formula, or a cosine formula?
Please ONLY answer 2d and 2e
2a. A mass moving back and forth on a spring obeys the sinusoidal equation x(t) = A cos(2πft), where A is the amplitude of the oscillation or the maximum displacement of the mass from its equilibrium position, f is the frequency of the oscillation and t is the time. If the amplitude is 10.0 cm and the frequency is f = 0.500 Hz, what is the position of the mass at t = 3.00 s? 2b. The velocity of the mass is also a sinusoidal function with the same period and frequency: v(t) = -vmax sin(2πft). Calculate vmax and the velocity of the mass v(t) when t = 3.00 s. 2c. What is the period T of this oscillation? 2d. If you evaluate the position function at t = 0 s the cosine of zero is 1 so you get the maximum amplitude of the oscillation, A. This occurs at the maximum stretch of the spring from its equilibrium position. For a mass on a spring this corresponds to the maximum spring potential energy, and because the velocity is zero at the endpoints of the oscillation,…
A physics department has a Foucault pendulum, a longperiod pendulum suspended from the ceiling. The pendulum has an electric circuit that keeps it oscillating with a constant amplitude. When the circuit is turned off, the oscillation amplitude decreases by 50% in 22 minutes. What is the pendulum’s time constant? How much additional time elapses before theamplitude decreases to 25% of its initial value?
