Concept explainers
Fermat’s principle (Exercise 64) also explains why light rays traveling between air and water undergo bending (refraction). Imagine that we have two uniform media (such as air and water) and a light ray traveling from a source

- Suppose that a mass of 100 g stretches a spring 5 cm. If the mass is set in motion from its equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 24.90 cm/sec, and if there is no damping then we can obtain the equation modelling this system as follows: The spring constant is k= (100g) (980cm/sec²) 5cm 19600. Hence 100u" +19600u = 0 can be simplified to u" + 196u = 0. In this case the initial values are u(0)=0 and u'(0)=24.90. By using the information given above, determine the value of u(3.2), the position of the mass at 3.2 seconds.

The string is taut and passes over a small smooth pulley fixed at the intersection of a horizontal surface and an inclined plane.The block can move on the horizontal surface, which is rough. The particle can move on the inclined plane, which is smooth and which makes an angle of θ with the horizontal where tanθ = 3/4The system is released from rest. In the first 0.4 seconds of the motion P moves 0.3m downthe plane and B does not reach the pulley.(a) Find the tension in the string during the first 0.4 seconds of the motion.(b) Calculate the coefficient of friction between B and the horizontal surface.arrow_forward
