"Comment briefly on whether your result is reasonably believable. If it is – what sort of result could be easily identified as not believable for this problem? "
Thank you.

- The answer should be typed.arrow_forwardPlease helparrow_forwardYou may have seen in previous courses the statement "for angles theta near zero, sin theta can be approximated by theta." I first saw this in a physics class when we were talking about pendulums. This approximation of sin theta by theta was completely mysterious to me when I first saw it. (I hadn't had calculus yet.) The object in this discussion is to find out where this approximation comes from.arrow_forward
- From a differential equations course: A mass that weight 6 lb stretches a spring 1in. The system is acted on by an external force 11* sin(19.5959*t) lb. If the mass is pushed up 4 in and then released, determine the position of the mass at any time t. Use 32ft/s2 as the acceleration due to gravity. Pay close attention to the units. NOTES: Answer should be a function u(t). The 'guess' when using the method of undetermined coefficients is: t(A*cos(19.5959*t) + B*sin(19.5959t)). I just have not been able to finish the MUC part to find the particular soluton to the Non-Homogeneous Equation. The general solution to the homogeneous equation is: u_c = C1*cos(19.5959t) + C2*sin(19.5959t)arrow_forwardConsider a non-rotating circular thin disc of gas of radius R. The only forces present in the system are pressure forces within the disc and its self-gravity. The disc is surrounded by empty space. In the disc is present a surface density perturbation of the type 01 = 010e (wt-kr) where σ10 is the amplitude of the perturbation, t represents time, r the radial coordi- nate from the centre of the disc, w is the angular frequency of the perturbation and k its wavenumber. Under the influence of the above perturbation, the linear stability of the disc is determined by the following dispersion relation w² = u²k² - 2πGook, where u is the sound speed in the disc, σ the surface density of the disc, and G is the gravitational constant. 1. Using the dispersion relation and appropriate definitions derive an expression of the group velocity of the small perturbations as a function of u, σo and their wavelength. 2. State the criterion for the disc to be stable and then show that the disc is stable…arrow_forwardA laminar boundary layer profile may be assumed to be approximately of the form u/U₁ = f(n) = f(y/6) i) Use an integral analysis with the following two-segment velocity profile, f(n)=(n/6)(10-3n-13), for 0≤17 ≤0.293 and ƒ (7) = sin (лn/2) for 0.293≤ n ≤1, to find expressions for the displacement thickness &, the momentum thickness e, the shape factor H, the skin-friction coefficient a, and the drag coefficient CD.arrow_forward

(Note that this means the forces balance, and thus mg = kx where m = 55 grams is mass, g = 981 cm/s is acceleration due to gravity, k is the spring constant, and x = 8 cm is the displacement.) The mass is set in motion from this equilibrium position with an initial downward velocity of 23 cm/s, and there is no damping. Find the position u (in cm) of the mass at any time t (in s).

- Why is Logger Pro set up to report the time between every other blocking of the Photogate? Why not the time between every block? Using either Graphical Analysis or graph paper, plot a graph of pendulum period vs. amplitude in degrees. Scale each axis from the origin (0,0). Does the period depend on amplitude? Explain. Using either Graphical Analysis or graph paper, plot a graph of pendulum period T vs. lengthl. Scale each axis from the origin (0,0). Does the period appear to depend on length? Using either Graphical Analysis or graph paper, plot the pendulum period vs. mass. Scale each axis from the origin (0,0). Does the period appear to depend on mass? Do you have enough data to answer conclusively? To examine more carefully how the period T depends on the pendulum length l, create the following two additional graphs of the same data: T 2 vs. l and T vs. l2 . Of the three period-length graphs, which is closest to a direct proportion; that is, which plot is most nearly a straight line…arrow_forwardIn the solution here to problem 3.37 Griffiths, the first step is to use Eqn 3.73* Can you show me why <d(xp)/dt> = 0 or why it isn't in the RHS of the equation?
