    2 simple oscilliation problems.

    1) You are a new employee at the Cut-Rate Cuckoo Clock company. The boss asks you what would happen to the frequency of the angular simple harmonic motion of the balance wheel if it had the same density and the same coil spring (thus the same torsion constant), but all the balance wheel...

    LOADS of Final Review Questions

    Hi, these are off of my final review sheet. Theres a lot of them but I think most my answers are correct :smile::smile: * = my answer. 1. Kinetic Theory accounts for the increase in pressure as a confined gas is heated by what? *An increase in particle motion, more violent and...

    Thanks for helping Janitor. 1) Since the mass is greater on weekdays the period of oscillation with be greater. 3) Thanks for the tip about beat frequency! The formula is Fb = |F1-F2| Interference will alter the sound. Fb = |100kHz-102kHz| = 2kHz the human ear can hear at 2kHz...

    Possible Mistakes in Calculus Problems

    well i think i was exaggerating a bit when I said he was a dickhead. Hes a great guy but very picky. :cool: When did I say or even imply that I want better marks even though I am getting it wrong?

    Possible Mistakes in Calculus Problems

    for #3) Can I do y' = (3x^4-9x^3+12x^2+3x) / (x^3+1)^2 y' = 3x(x^3-3x^2+4x+1) / (x^3+1)^2 ? for #5) Can i do h'(x) = 1/2(3+2x)^(-1/2)(2) h'(x) = (3+2x)^(-1/2) ? Im not sure about 10 and 12 it seems like something could be done or? TRhanks again guys i really appreciate it

    Possible Mistakes in Calculus Problems

    Please double check my work ! Hi, I basically did out all the poroblems. I just need someone to double check whether I made any mistakes in the answers or procedures. (My prof is a real dickhead and marks down for the smallest mistake) Also can I simplify any answers, just like obvious stuff...

    3) Sorry! **A human ear cannot hear sound at a frequency of 100 kHz or a sound at 102 kHz. But, if you walk into a room in which two sources are emitting sound at 100 kHz and at 102khz, you'll hear sound. Explain why this is possible. *Has to do with the two frequencies combining? (No idea...
