Two springs are pulled down from the ceiling and released at the same time. The first spring, which oscillates 14 times per second, was initially pulled down 2 cm from equilibrium, and the amplitude decreases by 8% each second. The second spring, oscillating 22 times per second, was initially pulled down 10 cm from equilibrium and after 3 seconds has an amplitude of 2 cm. Which spring comes to rest first, and at what time? Consider &#8220;rest&#8221; as an amplitude less than [latex]0.1\\text{ cm}\\text{.}[\/latex]<\/p>\n<p>49. A plane flies 2 hours at 200 mph at a bearing of [latex]\\text{ }{60}^{\\circ }[\/latex], then continues to fly for 1.5 hours at the same speed, this time at a bearing of [latex]{150}^{\\circ }[\/latex]. Find the distance from the starting point and the bearing from the starting point. Hint: bearing is measured counterclockwise from north.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67,"menu_order":40,"template":"","meta":{"_candela_citation":"[]","pb_show_title":"on","pb_short_title":"","pb_subtitle":"","pb_authors":[],"pb_section_license":""},"chapter-type":[],"contributor":[],"license":[],"part":201,"module-header":"practice","content_attributions":[],"internal_book_links":[],"video_content":null,"cc_video_embed_content":{"cc_scripts":"","media_targets":[]},"try_it_collection":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/2349"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/67"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/2349\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5708,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/2349\/revisions\/5708"}],"part":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/parts\/201"}],"metadata":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/2349\/metadata\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2349"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"chapter-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapter-type?post=2349"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=2349"},{"taxonomy":"license","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/content.one.lumenlearning.com\/precalculus\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/license?post=2349"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
