Assume the block does not make it all the way to the bottom of the ramp before it comes to rest. what is the x-component of the block's position when it stops? use an x-axis parallel to the incline, with the positive direction pointing up the incline and the origin at the spring's equilibrium position. this should not depend on the initial height of the block, only on the angle.

Astring that is fixed at both ends has a length of 1.05 m. when the string vibrates at a frequency of 91.0 hz, a standing wave with five loops is formed. (a) what is the wavelength of the waves that travel on the string? (b) what is the speed of the waves? (c) what is the fundamental frequency of the string?

We all use gps today, even if we don't drive yet. i bet you have been in the car with a parent and they have asked you to get out your phone to find a specific location. in your car, on the phone, you are using a very sophisticated technology. gps satellites circle the earth twice a day in a very precise orbit and transmit signal information to earth. gps receivers take this information and use trilateration to calculate the user's exact location. essentially, the gps receiver compares the time a signal was transmitted by a satellite with the time it was received. the time difference tells the gps receiver how far away the satellite is. now, with distance measurements from a few more satellites, the receiver can determine the user's position and display it on the unit's electronic map. what type of signal is utilized by the gps satellite?

Assuming weightless pulleys and 100% efficiency, what is the minimum input force required to lift a 120 n weight using a single fixed pulley?
