The water in a river flows uniformly at a constant speed of 2.27 m/s between parallel banks 69.3 m apart. You are to deliver a p
ackage directly across the river, but you can swim only at 1.58 m/s. (a) If you choose to minimize the time you spend in the water, in what direction should you head? ° from the direction of the stream (b) How far downstream will you be carried? m (c) If you choose to minimize the distance downstream that the river carries you, in what direction should you head? ° from the direction of the stream (d) How far downstream will you be carried?

Answer:
D. The period would decrease by sqrt (2)
Explanation:
The period of a mass-spring system is given by:
where
m is the mass
k is the spring constant of the spring
If the spring constant is doubled,
k' = 2k
So the new period will be
So the correct answer is
D. The period would decrease by sqrt (2)
