Chapter 5.6, Problem 60E
Guitar String A guitar string is pulled at point P a distance of 3 cm above its rest position. It is then released and vibrates in damped harmonic motion with a frequency of 165 cycles per second. After 2 s, it is observed that the amplitude of the vibration at point P is 0.6 cm.
- (a) Find the damping constant c.
- (b) Find an equation that describes the position of point P above its rest position as a function of time. Take t = 0 to be the instant that the string is released.

- APPLICATIONS Shock Absorber When a car hits a certain bump on the road, a shock absorber on the car is compressed a distance of 6 in., then released see figure. The shock absorber vibrates in damped harmonic motion with frequency of 2 cycles per second. The damping constant for this particular shock absorber is 2.8. a Find an equation that describes the displacement of the shock absorber from its rest position as a function of time.

- CONCEPTS For an object in simple harmonic motion with amplitude a and period 2/, find an equation that models the displacement y at any time t if a y=0 at time t=0: y= ____________. b y=a at time t=0: y= ____________.arrow_forwardThe Beer-Lambert Law As sunlight passes through the waters of lakes and oceans, the light is absorbed, and the deeper it penetrates, the more its intensity diminishes. The light intensity I at depth x is given by the Beer-Lambert Law: I=I0ekx where I0 is the light intensity at the surface and k is a constant that depends on the murkiness of the water see page 402. A biologist uses a photometer to investigate light penetration in a northern lake, obtaining the data in the table. Light intensity decreases exponentially with depth. Use a graphing calculator to find an exponential function of the form given by the Beer-Lambert Law to model these data. What is the light intensity I0 at the surface on this day, and what is the murkiness constant k for this lake? Hint: If your calculator gives you a function of the form I=abx, convert this to the form you want using the identities bx=eln(bx)=exlnb. See Example 1b. Make a scatter plot of the data, and graph the function that you found in part a on your scatter plot. If the light intensity drops below 0.15 lumen lm, a certain species of algae cant survive because photosynthesis is impossible. Use your model from part a to determine the depth below which there is insufficient light to support this algae.
