Homework Statement You drop a stone down a well. You hear the 'splash' 1.63s later. How deep is the well? The speed of sound in air is 343m/s. Homework Equations Kinematic equation: Δh=V0t+1/2gt2 Also, I've narrowed the problem down to the total time of 1.63s is equal to... 1) the...

Wow! I feel like an idiot now. I've just spent the last hour just looking at the diagram, wondering why and didn't even think to draw out a sine function, lol! Thanks so much, this helps out a ton!

A 0.980kg block slides on a frictionless, horizontal surface with a speed of 1.32m/s. The block encounters an unstretched spring with a force constant of 245N/m. (a)How far is the spring compressed before the block comes to rest? (b) How long is the block in contact with the spring before...

1. "The problem statement" is more of a theory question based on physics. This would be my first post to this forum and I'm attempting to follow the rules as best I can. I guess the equation in question is T= 2∏√(m/k) 2. The above mentioned equation. According to my textbook author James...

Good Morning! I just now signed up, although I've been lurking for a while now. I am just finishing up my first semester in college physics (non-calc based) and I truly enjoy learning about the dynamics of how this awesome universe works. However, and this is where my question comes in, I am...
