1. A 70 kg ancient statue lies at the bottom of the sea (fresh water). Its volume is 3.0*10^4 (cm)^3.
a) How much force is required to lift it up at constant velocity through the water? (A force diagram would prove helpful in this problem.)
b) If the statue was in salt water instead of fresh water, would the force required to lift the statue be greater or less than in fresh water? Explain.
2. A transverse traveling wave on a string is represented by
y(x,t) = 0.15 m sin [(0.393/m)x + (12.57rad/s)t]
where standard notation is used. For this wave, determine the
a) wavelength
b) frequency
c) velocity
d) amplitude
e) angular frequency and wave vector
f) magnitude of the maximum speed of particles on the string
g) magnitude of the maximum acceleration of particles on the string
h) direction of propagation of the wave
i) particle velocity and particle acceleration of the particle at x = 6m when t = 0.250s
3. a) Explain what characterizes a natural frequency of a system.
b) Explain what is meant by resonance, or driving the system at resonance.
c) Give an example of a system that has only one natural frequency and a system that has an infinite number of natural frequencies.
d) Explain what is meant by the principle of superposition.

It also absorbed more water than the original control
: Now...when we change the temperature of the water bath from 20 degrees C to 30 degrees C, the rate of water absorption changed and the wood absorbed more water in the same unit time. Why??? Help me understand?
