A spring with a 10-kg mass and a damping constant 15 can be held stretched 2 meters beyond its natural length by a force of 6 newtons. Suppose the spring is stretched 4 meters beyond its natural length and then released with zero velocity. Suppose the spring is stretched 4 meters beyond its natural length and then released with zero velocity. Required:
Find the position of the mass at any time t.

Explanation:

Given that:

mass = 10kg

damping constant C = 15 kg/s

length = 2 m

Force F = 6N

Using the Hooke's law:

F = kx

6 = 15x

k = 6 N /2 m

spring constant k = 3 N/m

For the critical damping

C² - 4k*m= 0

m = C²/4k

m = (15)²/4(3) kg

m = 225/12 kg

m = 18.75 kg

  1.the balanced   chemical equation is as below

cu +   2 ag(no)₃ → cu(no₃)₂   +2 ag

2.the   much silver   produced   is   50.9 g

step 1: find the   moles of cu

moles =   mass÷   molar mass

  from periodic table the molar mass of cu = 63.5 g/mol

moles is therefore = 15.00 g÷ 63.5 g/mol = 0.236   moles

step 2: use the mole ratio to determine the   moles of ag

from equation above   cu: ag   is 1: 2

therefore the moles of ag   =0.236   moles   x 2/1 =0.472   moles

step 3: find the mass   of ag

mass = moles x molar mass

from periodic table   the molar mass of ag =107.87 g/mol

mass   = 0.472   moles x 107.87 g/mol = 50.9 g

3.   the   much   silver   collected worth is   1.797 oz

  convert   50.9 g   to oz

that is   1 gram = 0.0353 oz

          50.9 grams =?   oz

by cross multiplication

={(50.9 grams x 0.0353 oz) / 1   gram}   =1.797 oz
