Oh I am sorry about that, well first the problem says there is a metal plate attached to the end of a platform and can be used to measure mass. when the free end of the plate is pulled down and realeased it vibrates in simple harmonic motion with a period that depends on the mass attached to the...

Homework Statement Hey guys I am not sure how to find the period when I am given the mass and the time, for example mass= .10 k and Time for vibrations= 8.86s Find the Period Homework Equations Im not sure maybe f = 1/t The Attempt at a Solution No idea how to incorporate mass in...

oh so i take 35/2=17.5 30/4=7.5 17.5/7.5=2.3m

would the forces be mass and gravity and, distance 2m from pivot point

would it be the pivot point?

im sorry I am not familiar to these terms, do you have an equation i can use

Homework Statement Two children are sitting on opposite ends of a uniform seesaw of negligible mass, if a 35 kg child is 2.0 m from the pivot point, how far from the pivot point will her 30 kg playmate have to sit on the other side for the seesaw to be in equilibrium. please help Homework...

Homework Statement hey everybody i got a problem but do not know how to do it, A 2.0 kg frictionless cart is moving at a constant speed of 3.0m/s to the right on a horizontal surface. it then collides with a mass that is at rest. as a result the cart acquires a speed of 1.6m/s. Neglect...
