A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block of mass 4.60 kg attached to a spring of spring constant 430 N/m. When t = 0.810 s, the position and velocity of the block are x = 0.111 m and v = 2.970 m/s. What is the amplitude of the oscillations?

A sinusoidal wave moving along a string is shown twice in the figure, as crest A travels in the positive direction of an x axis by distance d = 6.20 cm in 4.10 ms. The tick marks along the axis are separated by 13.0 cm; height H = 6.00 mm. If the wave equation is of the form y(x, t) = ym sin(kx ± ωt ), what is the value of ω?

A small ball of mass 0.64 kg is attached to one end of a 0.870-m-long massless rod, and the other end of the rod is hung from a pivot. When the resulting pendulum is 23° from the vertical, what is the magnitude of the torque about the pivot?
