A piece of cork has a mass of 550 grams. An 18 N sinker is attached to it. With only the sinker in water, the cork and sinker weigh 20.7 N, with the sinker and cork both in water, they weigh 0.9 N. When the sinker was immersed in alcohol, it weighed 15.7 N. Determine the density of the cork in kg/m3? What is the specific gravity and density of the sinker? Determine the density of the alcohol in gm/ml.

A mass of 20 grams stretches a spring 5cm. Suppose that the mass
is also attached to a damper with constant coefficient 0.4 N·s/m.
Initially the mass is pulled down an additional 2cm and released.
Write a differential equation for the position u(t) of the mass at
time t (make the units meters, kilograms, Newtons, seconds). Do NOT
solve the differential equation.
The solution to a differential equation that models a vibrating
spring is u(t) = 4e−t cos(3t) + 3e−t...

Two small balls with 5 grams of mass are attached to silk
threads, which are in turn tied to the same point on the ceiling.
When the two balls have same electric charges, the thread hang in
the air with 5 degrees of angle with respect to the vertical
direction. Calculate the size of the electric charge and the sign
associated with the charges. Assume that the threads are 50 cm
long. please explain thoroughly and write neatly!

A mass weighing 4 N is attached to a spring whose constant is 2
N/m. The medium offers a damping force that is numerically equal to
the instantaneous velocity. The mass is initially released from a
point 1 m above the equilibrium position with a downward velocity
of 6 m/s. Determine the time at which the mass passes through the
equilibrium position. (Use
g = 9.8 m/s2
for the acceleration due to gravity.)

A
2kg mass attached to a spring with k = 120 N / m is oscillating in
an oil tub, which dampens oscillations. A) If the oil damping
constant is b = 10kg / s, how long will it take for the amplitude
of the oscillations to decrease to 2% of its original value? B)
What should be the damping constant to reduce the amplitude of the
oscillations by 99% in 1 second?

A 1.25 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 18
N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it with a

is the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations?
What is the block's speed at the point where x=0.25A?

A mass of 2 kilogram is attached to a spring whose constant is 8
N/m, and the entire system is then submerged in a liquid that
imparts a damping force equal to 8 times the instantaneous
velocity. At t = 0 the mass is released from the equilibrium
position with no initial velocity. An external force f(t) =
2U(t−1)*e^(−2(t−1)) is applied.
(a) Write f(t), the external force, as a piecewise function and
sketch its graph.
(b) Write the initial-value problem....

N/m, and the entire system is then submerged in a liquid that
imparts a damping force numerically equal to 10 times the
instantaneous velocity. The mass is initially released from rest
from a point 1 meter below the equilibrium position.
