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?

Two particles of masses m and 2m are placed on a smooth horizontal table. a string, which joins these two masses, hangs over the edge supporting a pulley, which suspends a particle of mass 3m. the pulley has negligible mass. the two parts of the string on the table are parallel and perpendicular to the edge of the table. the hanging parts of the string are vertical. find the acceleration of the particle of mass 3m.

Figure 9 on page 362 shows various motions of balls. the curved path followed by the yellow ball in b in picture b is result of a) inertia b) centripetal motion c) gravity and horizontal velocity d) linear motion
