Simple Harmonic Motion: Definition

Easy

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Easy of Physics

An object attached to a spring oscillates in one direction, according to the equation x(t) = A cos(ωt + φ), where x is the displacement of the object relative to its equilibrium position, t is time, A is the amplitude of the oscillation, ω is the angular frequency, and φ is the initial phase. To verify if an object is in Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM), what condition should the equation describing the motion satisfy?
a.
It must be an exponential function.
b.
It must be a linear function.
c.
It must be a logarithmic function.
d.
It must be a quadratic function.
e.
It must be a sinusoidal or cosinusoidal function.

A motor operates according to the Carnot cycle between two thermal sources. The hot source is at a temperature of 500 K and the cold source at 300 K. Determine the efficiency of the motor, knowing that the efficiency of the Carnot cycle is calculated by the expression 1 - (Tcold/Thot), where Tcold and Thot are the temperatures of the cold and hot sources, respectively. Discuss briefly the importance of the maximum efficiency of the Carnot cycle in practical applications of thermal engines.

A student is observing an object through a converging lens with a focal length of 10 cm. The object is located 40 cm away from the lens. (Consider that the thin lens approximation is valid). Based on this information: 1) Calculate the position of the image formed by the lens. 2) Determine the size of the image relative to the size of the object, knowing that the lens obeys the Gauss equation (1/f = 1/p + 1/p'), where f is the focal distance of the lens, p is the distance from the object to the lens, and p' is the distance from the image to the lens, all measured in cm. Consider that the coordinate system used has its origin at the lens's optical center, with the main axis oriented positively to the right, and that real images have a positive sign and virtual images have a negative sign.

A technician from an electronics company is working on a circuit involving three capacitors in series. The capacitors have capacitances of 6μF, 8μF, and 12μF, respectively. Assuming the potential difference applied to the capacitors is 60V, determine the charge stored in each capacitor and the equivalent capacitance of the series configuration.
