Assalamu alaikum,
This question is about simple harmonic motion:
Q)A small mass attached to a spring oscillates with simple harmonic motion with amplitude of 35mm,taking 6.5s to make 20 oscillations.Calculate
a)it's angular frequencey,
b)it's maximum speed,
c)it's maximum acceleration.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation!
a) 20 oscillations in 6.5 s
1 oscillation in 0.325s
time period = 0.325s
angular frequency = 2pie/time
= 2pie/0.325
= 19.33 rad/seconds
b) maximum speed = ang.frequency*max.amplitude
= 19.33*(35*10^-3)
= 0.67 m/s

c) max acceleration = [(ang.frequency)^2]*max.amplitude
= (19.33^2)*(35*10^-3)
= 13.1 m/s^2

Thanks a bunch, really appreciate it.

My question concerns (b)(ii). Why don't we consider Rf and R while determining the required value of V2..?

in this case we don't need to consider Rf and R and complicate ourselves.
Vout=Rf/R x( V2-V1)
Vout=0, hence V2-V1=0
V2=V1
So why need to consider Rf and R?
In the third part since Vout is not equal to zero we need to consider Rf and R and in that case they've given us the ratio..

These questions are from CIE Past papers.
Q.21 is from November 1990,Paper 1,Q.5 and Q.33 is from November 1976,Paper 1 and Q.1.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

q21) momentum = force * time
that means area under graph is momentum
divide the graph in 2 sections
1st division from 0 to 2 seconds, 2nd division from 2 to 6 seconds
area of 1st division : 2*2 = 4
area of 2nd division : 1/2*(4)(2+6) = 16
total area = momentum = 20

Please solve this question from Past papers too:
Q.64) A rod of length 1 metre has non-uniform composition, so that the centre of gravity is not at its geometrical centre.
The rod is laid on supports across two top-pan balances as shown in the diagram.The balances(preiviously set at zero) give readings of 360g and 240g.
Where is the centre of gravity of the rod relative to its geometrical centre? (J93/1/5)
Thanks!

option E means what??? whats the numerical value? m getting 0.4. is it ryt?
Apologies for not adding the options too.And it's option A!
A) 1/10 metre to the left
B) 1/10 metre to the right
C) 1/6 metre to the left
D) 1/5 metre to the right
E) 1/5 metre to the left

I need help with question 9 and 12 of this paper.
9. One way of dealing with this question is realising that at the lowest point, the velocity will have a maximum magnitude (min G.P.E and max K.E). Secondly, it will be negative since downward motion is ascribed a negative value. Hence, C is correct.
12. Momentum before collision = momentum after collision
m(-2v) + 3m(v) = 4m V
=> V = mv/4m = v/4.
Hence, A is correct.

anticlockwise moments = clockwise moments
assume the distance as 'x'
1 distance will b x metres
the other will b (1-x) metres
360 * x = 240 * (1-x)
360x = 240 - 240x
600x = 240
x = 0.4 metres
as we have to find the center of gravity from the midpoint, it will be 0.5 - x = 0.1 metres to the left
