I'm not really familiar with complex numbers (other than i^2 = -1) but your explanation does makes some sense to me. Thank You! =)

So we know that SHM can be described as: x(t) = Acos(ωt + ϕ) v(t) = -Aω sin(ωt + ϕ) a(t) = -Aω^2 cos(ωt + ϕ) it can be easily said that the max acceleration (in terms of magnitude) a SHM system can achieve is Aω^2 In Damped Harmonic Motion we know that: x(t) = (A)(e^(-bt/2m))cos(ωt + ϕ) given...

Thank you Mr. phinds & Mr haruspex for clearing my doubts! =)

Thank you so much! Is it right to say that the velocity that determines the KE & temperature of the gas/system is always relative to the container?

Homework Statement Some gas at 300K is enclosed in a container. Now the container is placed on a fast moving train. While the train is in motion what happens to the temperature of the gas? Homework Equations KE(total) = (3/2)(N_A)nkT KE(avg) = 3/2kT The Attempt at a Solution My...
