Find the amplitude, period, frequency, and velocity amplitude for the motion of a particle whose distance from the origin is the given function.

s=5sin(t-π)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The velocity amplitude of motion of a particle is 5.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

Distance from the origin the given function iss=5sin(t-π)

02

Concept of Periodic motion formula

Time Period (T) : It is the time taken by the motion to repeat itself. So the unit of a time period is seconds.

Frequency (f) : It is defined as a number of times the motion is repeated in one second. The unit of frequency is Hz (Hertz).

Frequency is related to Time period as f = 1/T.

03

Calculation of the amplitude of motion of a particle

Following is the distance function:

s=5sin(t-π)

Amplitude is the maximum value of distance from the mean position.

So, amplitude = 5 .

04

Calculation of the period of motion of a particle

The distance functions of the formAsin(ωt-ϕ).

So, ω=1.

Then, obtain values:

Period =2πω

Period =2π1

Period =2π

05

Calculation of the velocity amplitude of motion of a particle

The frequency is defined as the inverse of the period.

So, .Frequency=1period

Frequency 12π

s=5sin(t-π)dsdt=5cos(t-π)

So, velocity amplitude is 5.

Use Parseval’s theorem and the results of the indicated problems to find the sum of the series in Probllems 5 to 9. The series 1+132+152+, using problem 9.6.

The diagram shows a “relaxation” oscillator. The chargeqon the capacitor builds up until the neon tube fires and discharges the capacitor (we assume instantaneously). Then the cycle repeats itself over and over.

(a) The charge q on the capacitor satisfies the differential equation

, here R is the Resistance, C is the capacitance and Vis the

Constant d-c voltage, as shown in the diagram. Show that if q=0 when

t=0 then at any later time t (during one cycle, that is, before the neon

Tube fires),

(b) Suppose the neon tube fires at. Sketch q as a function of t for

several cycles.

(b) Expand the periodic q in part (b) in an appropriate Fourier series.

In Problems 17to 20,find the Fourier sine transform of the function in the indicated problem, and write f(x)as a Fourier integral [use equation (12.14)]. Verify that the sine integral for f(x)is the same as the exponential integral found previously.
