Homework Statement
Two copper wires, one 1.0 mm in diameter and 1.0 m long, the other 2.0 mm in diameter
and 2.0 m long, are joined together end-to-end and hung vertically. In order to tension
this compound wire, a block is suspended from it. It is found that a transverse pulse takes
50...
cool, thank you very much for your help, have a good one. And by the way, I just found this forum and I think this is a great tool for students, keep it up. peace
Sorry it took so long to answer. Having the amplitude equal 25cm, I am thinking it is located 25cm from the equilibrium, and thus 30cm from the starting point would be 5cm from the equilibrium?
Homework Statement
A 250 g block is resting on a frictionless horizontal surface. The block is attached to a
spring. The mass-spring system is compressed by a 2.5 N force and then released from
rest.
(a) The resulting oscillation has a 1.0 s period. What is the spring constant?
(b) What is...
Homework Statement
A pendulum consists of a 500 g bob at the end of a massless 75 cm rod.
(a) While it is hanging vertically down, the bob is given a push that starts it moving at 25
cm/s. What is the amplitude of the resulting oscillation in degrees? You may neglect
damping...
