The left-hand end of a slender uniform rod of mass m is placed against a vertical...
The left-hand end of a slender uniform rod of mass m is placed against a vertical wall. The rod is held in a horizontal position by friction at the wall and by a light wire that runs from the right-hand end of the rod to a point on the wall above the rod. The wire makes an angle θ with the rod. a)What must the magnitude of the friction force be in order for the rod to remain at rest?...

Just before launching from earth, an astronaut ties a small mass m to the ceiling of his cockpit using a string of length L and mass per unit length μ. The mass of the string is significantly smaller than the mass of the tied object. He then plucks the string and measures the frequency of its n = 1 and n = 2 standing waves. As his rocket takes off, with an acceleration of ar, he repeats the measurement. In...

Question 8 please
5. We start with Schrodinger's Equation in 2(x,t) = H¥(x,t). We can write the time derivative as 2.4(x, t) = V(x,+) - (xt), where At is a sufficiently small increment of time. Plug the algebraic form of the derivative into Schrodinger's Eq. and solve for '(x,t+At). b. Put your answer in the form (x,t+At) = T '(x,t). c. What physically does the operator T do to the function '(x,t)? d. Deduce an expression for '(x,t+24t), in terms...
