Ant on a Tightrope physics problem
Little Problem Okay since I'm solving for a_max, I need to use the variables g, f, A. What I did was I inserted the values (v/lambda) for f in the equation 4*PI^2*f^2*A = g, then I inserted sqrt(T_s/mu) for "v". Then I divided that whole thing by g and I got it wrong. This is what I came...- anaksunamoon

Ant on a Tightrope physics problem
I'm really confused where to start on this problem. I'm not sure what I need to solve it. A large ant is standing on the middle of a circus tightrope that is stretched with tension "T_s". The rope has mass per unit length "mu". Wanting to shake the ant off the rope, a tightrope walker moves...- anaksunamoon

Calculating the Density of 18-Karat Gold for Beginners
I just need a little help with this question..how should I finish a problem like this? In a sample of 18-karat gold, 75 percent of the total mass is pure gold, density_gold = 19.3 g/cm^3, while the rest is typically 16 percent silver density_silver = 10.5 g/cm^3 and 9 percent copper...- anaksunamoon
