Dear Dr. Carter,

There were two typos in the "hop" problem displayed in class today. Hop and average were misspelled.

My name isstill typed as Augla on the typo tally.

Sincerely,

Seerat

Towards the bottom of your homepage under the Research listing the second bullet reads as follows:

“Also completing work on particle physics experiment E791 which looks at on heavy quark production from a positive meson beam.”

Both the words “at” and “on” are included in the sentence, I believe only the word “at” should be in the sentence.

In Homework #14 on gravitation question #2 reads as follows:

3)For an satellite moving in a stable circular orbit, how are its kinetic energy and total mechanical energy related?

I believe the word “an” should be changed to “a”.

Equilibrium: Bar and Weights

A uniform beam of mass mb = 10.0 kg, is suspended from the ceiling by a single rope. It has a mass of m2 = 40.0 kg attached at one end and an unknown mass m1 attached at the other. The beam has a length of L = 3 m, it is in static equilibrium, and it is horizontal, as shown in the figure above. The tension in the rope is T = 637 N.

(a) Determine the unknown mass m1, at the left end of the beam.

m1 = kg *
14.9337OK

HELP:Sum the external forces and equate to zero.
HELP:Here, your only forces of concern are those in the y direction.

(b) Determine the distance, x, from the left end of the beam to the point where the rope is attached. Note: take the torque about the left end of the beam.

x = m

HELP:We know the sum of the torques will be zero. Since we are taking the torque about the left end of the beam, there are only three torques we will need to deal with.
HELP:We can assume the beam is uniform in distribution of mass and therefore take the torque of the beam at the center, 1.5 meters. Remember that the torque is the force time the perpendicular distance, i.e. be careful with the distances you choose. The torque is zero about every point, and therefore you can take the torque about another point as a check.

i believe you are missing an (s) to make it say "torque is the force time(s) the perpendicular distance......

thank you

In the homework problem, Stress-Strain Diagram, there's a typo saying "You have a bar of this material bar,..." when it should say You have a bar of this material.

1. Homework # 15, Wave on a Rope... it says " An apparatus similar to the one used in lab uses a oscillating motor..." when it should say An apparatus similar to the one used in lab uses an oscillating motor.
2. Homework # 15, Wave on a Rope... it says "The rope has mass denstiy  = 0.02 kg/m" where density is mispelled.
3. Homework # 15, Transverse Waves... it says" The transverse displacement of an harmonic wave..." when it should say "a harmonic wave"
4. Homework #15, Tension... it says " Two indentical strings are stretched between the same posts." where identical is spelling wrong.
5. Homework #15, Sound: Interference... it says "During a sound check, the technician sends the exact same frequency to both speakers while you listen, The technician starts at 20Hz and slowly increases it to 30,000Hz." There should be a period when the comma is between "while you listen" and "The technician"
