Homework Statement If the vertical axis blocks are 8 cm each and the horizontal axis blocks are 3 s each, what is the amplitude (in cm) of the wave shown in the diagram http://i54.tinypic.com/2ilngr9.gif What is the phase constant (in degrees) of the oscillation in the diagram?Homework...

Never mind, I solved it myself

Thanks a ton!

This problem is driving me crazy! Homework Statement How far from the center of the Earth (in km) is the center of mass of the Earth + satellite system if the satellite has a mass of 2970 kg and is in orbit 42400 km above the surface of the Earth. The mass of the Earth is 5.98*10^24 and the...

Thanks so much!

Here's what I have 2760 rpm * (2n/1 rev) * (60 s / 1 min) = 1040495.49 rad/s 1040495.49 rad/s * 0.260 s = 270,528.83 radians 270,528.83 radians * (1 rev / 2n) = 43,056 revolutions Is that right? I haven't put the answer in because I have a limited amount of tries but I want to make sure I...

I know that the acceleration is 1110 rad/s/s but I don't know how to get the amount of revolutions from that

I divided 11.96 by 2pi and got 1.90 revolutions, but the computer program says that's wrong. What's my mistake?

Homework Statement A high-speed drill reaches 2760 rpm in 0.260 s. Through how many revolutions does the drill turn during this first 0.260 s? 2. The attempt at a solution UPDATED: Here's what I have right now 2760 rpm * (2n/1 rev) * (60 s / 1 min) = 1040495.49 rad/s 1040495.49 rad/s *...
