A patio swing is suspended by two springs, each of which has a force constant of 450 N/m equivalent to a single spring forest constant of 900 N/m. Find the mass of a person sitting on the swing oscillating up and down out of 0.560 Hz.

It is may 5 and you are somewhere in the northern hemisphere. if you determine that the noon sun is 51 degrees above your southern horizon, what is the latitude of your location

We want to calculate the total metabolic heat generated by a singing canary taking into account heat transfer by radiation, convection and exhaling air. the air temperature is 20 oc, canary’s body internal and surface temperature is 33oc, external body surface convective heat transfer coefficient is 25.2 w/m2 .k, temperature difference between the inhaled and exhaled air is 4.3 oc, the ventilation rate is 0.74 cc of air per second, specific heat of air is 1.0066 kj/kg. k and density of air is 1.16 kg/m3 . assume the canary’s body to be a cylinder with 7 cm diameter and 9 cm length, and heat exchange is from the side as well as the top and bottom of cylinder. calculate 1) the net rate of heat lost by radiation, assuming heat gained by the bird through radiation from the surroundings is 11.5 w; 2) rate of heat transferred by convection to the surrounding air; 3) rate of heat transferred in the exhaling air without considering any internal evaporation; 4) total metabolic power.
