WileyPlus
If you purchased a new textbook in the bookstore, it came with a WileyPlus
access code (if you have an account from a previous PHYS 1050 or 1070 class,
you can use the old login, if you have switched from 1020/1030, please contact
me (jmammei@physics.umanitoba.ca))
Go to https://www.wileyplus.com/WileyCDA/Section/Fundamentals-ofPhysics-Extended-9th-Edition.id-402894.html and follow the instructions for
login
Once logged in, you can access problems on the "assignment" tab (note: while
this is called "assignment", there is no due date and no grade will be assigned,

this is strictly for voluntary practice)

Problems on our "recommended problem list are generally listed at the top, all
other end-of-chapter problems follow
Under the tab "Read, Study, and Practice" you will find an electronic version of
the textbook and other resources

Question
15.2.1. Object A is attached to ideal spring A and is moving in
simple harmonic motion. Object B is attached to ideal spring B
and is moving in simple harmonic motion. The period and the
amplitude of object B are both two times the corresponding
values for object A. How do the maximum speeds of the two
objects compare?
A. The maximum speed of A is one fourth that of object B.
B. The maximum speed of A is one half that of object B.
C. The maximum speed of A is the same as that of object B.

D. The maximum speed of A is two times that of object B.

E. The maximum speed of A is four times that of object B.

ball be at y = 0.75A?
A. 0.33T
B. 0.25T
C. 0.19T
D. 0.15T
E. 0.12T
