The concept of reciprocally has been introduced in the Diffraction and Imaging TLP, and in the X-ray Diffraction TLP within the Bragg and Scherrer equations. This inverse scaling between real and reciprocal space is based ...

This PhysCast is going to look at standing waves on a stretched string. A 45 gram string is tightly stretched and fixed firmly at each end. The tension in the string is 78 N, and it vibrates with its 3rd harmonic at 120 ...

The following PhysCast is about a sphere which is attached to a wall. A uniform sphere of mass m = 0.85 kg and radius r = 4.2 cm is held in place by a mass-less rope attached to a friction-less wall a distance of L = 8.0 ...

Video explains that a wave on a taut wire is described by the equation y=1.5sin(0.10x-560t), where x and y are in cm and t is in seconds. Find the: a) Amplitude, b) Wavelength, c) Period, d) Wave speed of the wave.

This PhysCast describes a question which deals with a wave which is travelling along a string.

This PhysCast looks at a conservation of energy problem. A 60 kg skier leaves the end of a ski-jump ramp with a velocity of 24 m/s directed 25 degrees above the horizontal. Suppose that as a result of air drag the skier ...

This problem is worked through: an anchor of mass 500kg is attached to a light cable that passes over a roller of negligible mass and winds around a hollow cylindrical drum of radius 1.2m and mass 250kg which can rotate ...

This PhysCast will analyse a motion problem using conservation of energy. A 1.25 kg ball is attached to the ground by a spring with k = 22 N/m and upstretched length of 0.55 m. The ball is thrown straight upwards, being ...

This PhysCast is about oscillatory motion. Two identical springs of spring constant 7580 Nm-1 are attached to a block of mass 0.295 kg. What is the frequency of oscillation on a friction-less floor?
