    Harmonic motion and the coeffcieient of friction

    1. A tray is moved horizontally back and forth in simple harmonic motion at a frequency of f=2.00Hz. on this tray is an empty cup. obtain the coefficient of static friction between the tray ad cup given that the cup begins slipping when the amplitude of the motion is 0.05m 2. f=kx...

    What Is the Maximum Radius for a Car to Stay on a Loop-the-Loop Track at 4m/s?

    doesnt the velocity remain the same? or does it change due to gravity? this is confusing ty

    What Is the Maximum Radius for a Car to Stay on a Loop-the-Loop Track at 4m/s?

    the drawing shows a version of the loop the loop trick for a small car. if the car is given an initial velocity of 4m/s what is the largest value that the radius r r can have if the car is to remain in contact with the circular track at all times? please refer to the attached file for a diagram...
