Thank you for the wisdom and the correction of terminology :D

Homework Statement For my problem, I have two springs that have the same length, but different masses and spring constants. Both springs are secured at one end to a holder and at the other ends are connected to a single mass. My question is how do I find the angular velocity? Since the...

Ok I see how you got the results, I added the gravitational acceleration of the two cavities to the gravitational acceleration of the solid sphere rather than subtracting the sum of the cavities from the solid sphere.

Ok, so in the problem I redid the 3rd row a bit. For the mass of hollow sphere 1, I replaced x_1 with r_1 and for the mass of hollow sphere 2, I replaced x_2 with r_2. I also redid the denominators where (X-x_1)^(2) was changed to (X+x_1)^(2) and (X-x_2)^(2) was kept the same. For my answer I...

But I don't think I'm looking for the gravitational force, I'm looking for the acceleration.

Ok, I did some research before and found something similar to that, but I wasn't sure if I had to do that. thanks.

Homework Statement My problem asks to find the gravitational acceleration at a point (P) due to the sphere with two spherical cavities. I am given the radius of the sphere (R), the radius of each of the two cavities (r1 and r2, which are the same), the distance between the center of the...

My question is that I am asked to find the angular frequency of a spring-mass system. I am given the damping constant, the mass of the object at the end of the spring, the mass of the spring, and the spring constant. I know that angular frequency equals the square root of the spring constant...
