Answer to Problem 2FC

The correct option is (a) 1 and 2.

Explanation of Solution

Out of the given four pulses, the combination of 1 and 2 will provide a resultant pulse with the highest peak and the deepest valley. This is because if we add pulse 1 and pulse 2, it will produce a resultant pulse that is 4 units high and 2 units deep. All the other combinations give a value that is less than this.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct option is (a) 1 and 2.

Portfolio Problem 4. Consider two identical springs, each with natural length and spring constant k, attached to a horizontal frame at distance 2l apart. Their free ends are attached to the same particle of mass m, which is hanging under gravity. Let z denote the vertical displacement of the particle from the hori- zontal frame, so that z < 0 when the particle is below the frame, as shown in the figure. The particle has zero horizontal velocity, so that the motion is one dimensional along z. 000000 0 eeeeee (a) Show that the total force acting on the particle is X F-mg k-2kz 1 (1. l k.
