    Converting from degK/s to degC/s?

    Is this how you convert the derivative, though? I know how to convert when it isn't the derivative, but...

    Converting from degK/s to degC/s?

    Alright, I know how to convert from Kelvin to Celsius (subtract 273), but I really don't know how many degrees Celsius are to Kelvin. (I need to convert .021 degK/s to deg/C)

    Change in Temperature and Thermal Energy?

    [SOLVED] Change in Temperature and Thermal Energy? Question- A physicist, upon awaking one morning to find his stove out of order, decides to boil the water for his wife's coffee by shaking it in a thermos flask. Suppose that he uses 420 cm^3 of tap water at 55 degF, that the water falls 1.45...

    Find Surface Area obtained by rotating a curve?

    Thank you very much. I got this far, but tried to use normal trig substitution. IT goes without saying that it didn't really work for me.

    Find Surface Area obtained by rotating a curve?

    Find the area of the surface obtained by rotating the curve y=2e^(2y) from y=0 to y=4 about the y-axis. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. This has my whole hall stumped. We know that you have to use the equation 2pi*int(g(y)sqrt(1+(derivative of function)^2), but cannot figure...

    Simple Harmonic Motion (Mass on a Spring)

    [SOLVED] Simple Harmonic Motion (Mass on a Spring) Homework Statement A solid cylinder of mass M= 10.8 kg is attached to a horizontal massless spring so that it can roll without slipping along a horizontal surface, as shown in the Figure. The force constant of the spring is k= 346 N/m. The...

    Dampened Harmonic Motion and oscillation

    Alright. I got you there. My new arithmatic looks like this: .5kA^2=[.5k(.985^n*A)^2]/2 kA^2=.5k(.985^n*A)^2 2A^2=(.985^n*A)(.985^n*A) 2=(.985^n)^2 ln(2)=.985^n Ack! I'm truly sorry- it's been a long night and barely anything seems coherent anymore...

    Dampened Harmonic Motion and oscillation

    (.5k(A*.985^n))/2=.5kA .5(A*.985^n)=A A*.985^n=2A .985^n=A I feel like I'm missing something there, due to the fact that answer makes no sense. Thanks for baring with me.

    Dampened Harmonic Motion and oscillation

    Thank you. I do not where to go with that, though, because of having no initial Amplitude. I have, however, derived that I am looking for t=ln(2)/(2*angular acceleration). However, I do not know how to get the angular acceleration without having a known mass value. (a. acceleration=b/2m) Any...

    Dampened Harmonic Motion and oscillation

    [SOLVED] Dampened Harmonic Motion Homework Statement A mass M is suspended from a spring and oscillates with a period of 0.900 s. Each complete oscillation results in an amplitude reduction of a factor of 0.985 due to a small velocity dependent frictional effect. Calculate the time it takes...
