    How Do You Solve an Oscillation Problem Involving a Vertical Spring and Block?

    a 850 g block is attached to a vertical spring whose stiffness constant is 9N/mThe block is released at the position where the spring is unextended. a) What is the maximum extension of the spring? b) How long does it take the block to reach the lowest point? so I found w by using k=mw^2...

    What is the force on the rider from the motorcycle?

    this is the problem: A motorcycle and 63.6 kg rider accelerate at 3.1 m/s2 up a ramp inclined 9.1° above the horizontal. What are the magnitude of (a) the net force on the rider and (b) the force on the rider from the motorcycle? I solved for a) F=ma = (63.6 kg)(3.1 m/s^2) =...

    Solving Physics Vector Problems: Adding, Subtracting, and Finding Equilibrium

    I am having trouble with this problem I have solved most of it it is just the last part I don't understand. Problem: Two vectors are given by a= ( 4.0 m)i - (3.0 m)j + (1.0 m) k and b= (-1.0 m)i + (1.0 m)j + (4.0 m)k In unit-vector notation, find (a) a + b, (b)a - b, and...
