Concept explainers
A body like that shown in Fig. 14.2 oscillates back and forth. For each of the following values of the body’s x-velocity vx and x-acceleration ax, state whether its displacement x is positive, negative, or zero. (a) vx > 0 and ax > 0; (b) vx > 0 and ax < 0; (c) vx < 0 and ax > 0; (d) vx < 0 and ax < 0; (e) vx = 0 and ax < 0; (f) vx > 0 and ax = 0.

- Show that the units 1 v2/Q = 1 W, as implied by the equation P = V²/R. Starting with the equation P = V²/R, we can get an expression for a watt in terms of voltage and resistance. The units for voltage, V, are equivalent to [? v2 v2 A, are equivalent to J/C ✓ X . Therefore, 1 = 1 = 1 A V1 J/s Ω V-A X = 1 W. . The units for resistance, Q, are equivalent to ?
