2. The expression x(t) = 100 Cos(8 pi t + pi/2) describes the SHM behavior of a particle. What is the angular frequency,

3. The expression x(t) = 100 Cos(8 pi t + pi/2) describes the SHM behavior of a particle. What is the phase constant

4. The expression x(t) = 100 Cos(8 pi t + pi/2) describes the SHM behavior of a particle. What is the frequency of the particle?

5. For the wave y(x,t) = 200 Sin(4pi x - 2pi t), what are the angular frequency and wavenumber?

6. How much heat does it take to melt 1kg of ice at 0 C and raise its temperature to 10 degrees C? (heat of fusion 3x105J/kg, specific heat 4x103 J/kg K
