    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    The only one that would be dependent on time would be B_{0} because the loop is held fixed and the angle does not change.

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    I'm thinking I have to use the emf at time t=0 to find the initial B at time t=0.

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    EMF= -\frac{B_{0}exp(-at)A}{dt} ? Or take the derivative of BAcos\phi with respect to time and set that equal to EMF? (Thank you for your help thus far though)

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    I am not sure I understand because I don't see any values given in the problem for the dimensions of this loop. Do you mean A = \frac{\phi}{B}?

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    \intBdA...B(dot)dA = BAcos\theta

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    The magnetic flux is a way of counting the total magnetic field lines. A changing magnetic field (given by the B(t)) will produce the emf's given.

    Solve EMF & Magnetic Flux: Find a (s-1)

    Here is how the question is stated exactly: A circular conducting loop is held fixed in a uniform magnetic field thatt varies in time according to B(t) = B0exp(-at) where t is in s, a is in s-1 and B is the field strength in T at t=0. At t=0, the emf induced in the loop is 0.0758 V. At t=...

    Oscillatory motion (vertical spring-mass system)

    It took me quite some time, but I finally understand what you wrote and how you arrived at your answers. Thanks for taking the time to help me out, I appreciate it.

    Analyzing Mass on a Vertical Spring

    Then, I believe the complete solution will equal sin(4x) + cos(4x) + 5/16 cos(wt). Again, I'm not positive, but I think I did everything correctly...

    Analyzing Mass on a Vertical Spring

    Ohh ok right, somewhere along the line I copied down the equation to be a "-" and not a "+" for the gen. solution. I had to look it up, but I believe that sin(4x) and cos(4x) are equivalent because of imaginary numbers "rotating" between x and y, and the shifts between +i and -i correlate to the...

    Analyzing Mass on a Vertical Spring

    I have the general solution to equal c1e4x + c2e-4x And the particular solution (so far) to be c2cos(ax+\beta) + c2sin(ax+\beta) Does this look like I'm on the right track?

    Oscillatory motion (vertical spring-mass system)

    When we assume the general solution of the form y= csin(w0t) + dcos(w0t)...is this because all of the derivatives will take such form? Since dy/dt = v in the original equation I was given, that implies that step 7 in the thumbnail could also be v(t)? Thank you for helping me with this.

    Analyzing Mass on a Vertical Spring

    I arrived at that first "solution" because I made the mistake of thinking it was in fact dy/dv. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I'm going to work on this new setup now..

    Oscillatory motion (vertical spring-mass system)

    No, this isn't homework. Yes, the external force that is applied is given by 10sin(wt) where w will vary. I am first examining what happens when w = 2 rad/sec. I've been working on this and came up with the following at 2 rad/ sec (don't know if it is correct) dv/ dt = 5sin(2t) - 16y...

    Analyzing Mass on a Vertical Spring

    Mass on vertical spring with force applied. dy/dt = v dv/dt = 5sin(wt) - 16y I am trying to figure out the velocity of this object at any given time when w= 2 rad/ sec. (Would ideally like to have it for any w and any t) Did I do this correctly? (In calc 2, haven't had diff eq yet)...
