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 P16.59
You are working in an observatory, taking data on electromagnetic radiation from neutron stars. You happen to be analyzing results from the neutron star in Example 11.6, verifying that the period of the 10.0-km-radius neutron star is indeed 2.6 s. You go through weeks of data showing the same period. Suddenly, as you analyze the most recent data, you notice that the period has decreased to 2.3 s and remained at that level since that time. You ask your supervisor about this, who becomes excited and says that the neutron star must have undergone a glitch, which is a sudden shrinking of the radius of the star, resulting in a higher angular speed. As she runs to her computer to start writing a paper on the glitch, she calls back to you to calculate the new radius of the planet, assuming it has remained spherical. She is also talking about vortices and a superfluid core, but you dont understand those words.
Explain why you expect an object made of a stiff material to vibrate at a higher frequency than a similar object made of a more pliable material.
A 1.00-kg glider attached to a spring with a force constant of 25.0 N/m oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal air track. At t = 0, the glider is released from rest at x = 3.00 cm (that is, the spring is compressed by 3.00 cm). Find (a) the period of the gliders motion, (b) the maximum values of its speed and acceleration, and (c) the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time.
