So when I attempted this question I was kind of stumped, as I have dealt only with SHMs in the same direction, which I can just add up. I know that this is possible because when we represent the SHMs as PHASORS, they rotate with some constant angular speed and can be treated as vectors. How do...

I used Rx = 100cos(0) + 200cos(90) = 100. Ry = 100sin(0) + 200sin(90) = 200. tanO = Ry/Rx = 2. Therefore O(theta) = inv tan (2) = 64 degrees.

Hello, Why isn't the forces resultant on a "large" molecule (by small molecule: water for example) zero? The reason for this Brownian motion is the thermal agitation of the water molecule. If we talk about white and Gaussian noise in electronics (due to the thermal agitation of the electrons)...

I am struggling with part b of the question attached in the screenshot. For part a, I simply add the components of the given forces. I tried calculating the moments using vector cross multiplication, but I don't know what to do after that or even if that step is useful.

Hello, so I have a question about the sense of rotation of the body. I get the calculating part nd stuff like that. But what I don't understand is how we would determine the sense of rotation about the moment axis? Could someone explain this to me please? (to add to this, I know that it is...

##-w1## and ##-w2## are to shift the cosine graph to the right, and ##\frac{2pi}{\lambda}## is to stretch the graph. But I can't seem to draw an appropriate ##y1+y2## graph (quite irregular) and I struggle to find the resultant frequency and wavelength. Also, why is there angular frequency in a...

My Try: The resultant field is given by $$\begin{aligned}\overrightarrow{E}=\overrightarrow{E}_{1}+\overrightarrow{E}_{2}=\widehat{i} E_{0}\cos \omega t+\widehat{j}E_{0}\cos \left( \omega t+\phi \right) \\ \Rightarrow E^{2}=E_{0}^{2}\cos ^{2}\omega t+E_{0}^{2}\cos ^{2}\left( \omega t+\phi...

Hello. How do I add 'x' to 'xy', and the resultant should be <= 1? x + xy = 1 PEMDAS: Step 1: Multiply 'x' and 'y' (2nd term in the equation) Step 2: Add 1st term to 2nd term of the equation Step 1 plus Step 2 should yield value <=1. I know that the curve look like this: 'xy' will give me...

Hi I made an attempt at this problem but have got the wrong answer The correct answer is actually resultant force = 21.767 N at 61.34 degrees (or 151.34 degrees bearing), but I don't know how they got that? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

I understand how these expressions are derived, but I don't see how to calculate successive resultant values. Should the continued fraction expression simply be replaced by 1?

So I thought of calculating the path differences between all the 3 points by taking them in pairs of 2. S1 and S2 S2 and S3 S3 and S1 I got the path differences as λ/3 , λ and 2λ/3 I can now find their phase differences using the equation Cosx=2π/λ* (path difference) Then I can apply the...

for a) I have ##v = \lambda f= \frac{\omega \lambda}{2 \pi}## for c) and d) I denote ##\frac{2\pi}{\lambda_1} = k_1## and ##\frac{2\pi}{\lambda_2} = k_2## assuming ##k_1 > k_2##. so using the triangular identity I got $$y_1 + y_2 = 2A cos(\frac{k_1+k_2}{2} x - \frac{\omega_1 + \omega_2}{2} t)...

So the magnetic field induced at the center of a current-carrying loop is given by: B = μ0 i /2r where r is the radius of the loop In the case of a semi-circular loop, this becomes B = μ0 i /4r In the question, i = 2A, r1 = 1m and r2 = 2m So, field induced at the center of first semicircular...

Hi all, I just wanted to get some clarification on 'resultant moment' when calculated in 2D for a beam which is fixed at one end (point A), and has a load applied at the opposite end (point B). My interpretation of 'resultant moment' would be calculated as sum(M) = Ma + FL, where Ma is the...
