Mass on a Spring: A 2.0 kg box is traveling at 5.0 m/s on a smooth horizontal surface when it collides with and sticks to a stationary 6.0 kg box. The larger box is attached to an ideal spring of force constant (spring constant) 150 N/m, as shown in the figure. Find (a) the amplitude of the resulting oscillations of this system, (b) the frequency of the oscillations and (c) the period of the oscillations.
What will be an ideal response?
Conduction: A concrete wall of a cold storage room measures 3.0 m high, 5.0 m wide, and 20 cm thick. The inside wall is to be covered by a layer of wood in order to reduce the rate of heat flow through the wall by 90 percent. The inner surface of the wooden wall is maintained at -10°C and the outer surface of the concrete wall is at 20°C. The thermal conductivities of concrete and wood are 0.80 W/m ? K (concrete) and 0.040 W/m ? K (wood). What is the temperature difference across the layer of wood?
A. 24 C° B. 25 C° C. 26 C° D. 27 C° E. 28 C°
Intensity: An 800-kHz sinusoidal radio signal is detected at a point 2.1 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the signal at that point is 0.80 V/m. Assume that the signal power is radiated uniformly in all directions and that radio waves incident upon the ground are completely absorbed. What is the intensity of the radio signal at that point? (?0 = 8.85 × 10-12 C2/N ? m2, ?0 = 4? × 10-7 T ? m/A, c = 3.0 × 108 m/s)
A. 8.5 × 10-4 W/m2 B. 1.2 × 10-3 W/m2 C. 1.7 × 10-3 W/m2 D. 6.0 × 10-4 W/m2 E. 4.2 × 10-4 W/m2
