A Quick "Lesson" on Physics and sin graphs

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on seeking assistance with understanding physics concepts related to motion along a sine graph, specifically the equation y(t) = -sin(x(t)). Participants are encouraged to share equations, lesson plans, or examples that can aid in calculating velocity, distance, and force for this type of motion. The original poster expresses uncertainty about how to begin solving the problem. The conversation highlights the need for foundational knowledge in physics to tackle these calculations effectively. Overall, the thread emphasizes the importance of collaborative learning in grasping complex concepts.

Homework Statement


Well instead of asking the entire question, I just would like some help getting started. What equations, or even some lesson plans/examples, are out there that can help me with finding things like velocity, distance moved, force, etc on something that moves along a sin graph.

Homework Equations


y(t)= -sin(x(t)) is the specific graph I am working with.

The Attempt at a Solution


Help? :(

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
