    Maximum Velocity When Doubling Amplitude & Period of SHM

    what happens to the maximum velocity if you double both Amplitude and period of a SHM? the equation is x(t) = A cos (wt + f) v(t) = -A w sin (wt + f) f is phase constant, w = angular velocity i know if i double A and T, the first part of the v(t) equation will be like: -2A *...

    Simple harmonic motion glider problem

    waiiiit a second..period 2.4 s that's going forward and back... cut that by half, that's going one way trip cut that by half again...would it be..could it be..AT THE EQILIBRIUM POINT!? 2.4/4 = 0.6 so the time to arrive at the equilibrium point is...0.6! now i see, the bottom equation...

    Simple harmonic motion glider problem

    i see what you're saying the maximum speed occurs when it is at its equlibrium point, x = 0 right? using the first derivitive i get velocity equation, which is: v(t) = - A w sin (wt) w = 2.61 -46 = - A*2.61 sin(2.61*t) <---this is at the eqi. point, going to the left but i still have 2...

    Simple harmonic motion glider problem

    An air-track glider is attached to a spring. The glider is pulled to the right and released from rest at t = 0 s . It then oscillates with a period of 2.40 s and a maximum speed of 46.0 cm/s. What is the amplitude of the oscillation? i tryed solving for t by using the equation x(t) = A cos...

    Force when 2 blocks pushing against each other

    k ktd here's how you do it lol see 2 blocks as one 4500 / 3000 = 1.5 (both's acc) f = ma, so force of car on truck = 1.5 * 1000 (car's mass) = 1500 now, the car's wheel produces 4500 force, we said 1500's car pushing truck, so where did the other 3000 go?? its truck pushing back <-----...

    Force when 2 blocks pushing against each other

    A 1000 kg car pushes a 2000 kg truck that has a dead battery. When the driver steps on the accelerator, the drive wheels of the car push against the ground with a force of 4500 N. What is the magnitude of the force of the car on the truck? What is the magnitude of the force of the truck on the...
