Figure 11-50 shows two examples of SHM, labeled A and B. (The vertical axis is marked in increments of 0.5 m and the horizontal axis is marked in increments of 1 s.)
First of all, label the School Subject carefully so the right teacher reads and answers y our post. Next, we have no access to any textbook and have no idea what the Figure 11-50 is. State your question clearly, please.

A 5.1 kg object initially at rest at the origin is subjected to the time-varying force shown in Figure P5.25, with the vertical axis in 4 N increments. What is the object's velocity at t = 6 s?
I apologize, but as an AI text-based model, I am unable to see or analyze visual content such as figures. However, if you provide a description or details of the examples of SHM labeled A and B, I will be more than happy to help you with any questions or explanations related to them.
To better understand the examples of SHM in figure 11-50, let's first familiarize ourselves with SHM.
Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is a type of oscillatory motion exhibited by many physical systems. It is characterized by a repetitive back-and-forth movement about a stable equilibrium position. The motion is defined by sinusoidal functions, often involving sine or cosine.
Now, let's analyze the two examples labeled A and B in figure 11-50.
Example A:
Looking at example A, we can observe that the vertical axis is marked in increments of 0.5 m, indicating the displacement or position of the object undergoing SHM. The horizontal axis is marked in increments of 1 s, representing time.
To determine the characteristics of SHM in example A, we need to identify certain key features:
1. Amplitude: The maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. It is the vertical distance between the equilibrium position and either the crest or trough of the motion.
2. Period (T): The time taken for one complete oscillation. It is the horizontal distance between two consecutive points at the same position during the motion.
3. Frequency (f): The number of oscillations completed per unit time. It is the inverse of the period, calculated as f = 1 / T.
4. Phase: The initial position or starting point of the motion.
By analyzing the graph in example A, we can determine the values of these features and understand the nature of SHM being depicted.
Example B:
Similarly, for example B, we follow the same process to analyze its characteristics and determine the values of amplitude, period, frequency, and phase.
Remember, in both examples, the vertical axis represents displacement, and the horizontal axis represents time.
By examining the graph along with the marked axes and the given increment values, we can analyze and interpret the characteristics of SHM in both examples A and B in figure 11-50.
