Chapter 13, Problem 54(choose chapter or problem)
The muscles that drive insect wings minimize the energy needed for flight by choosing to move at the natural oscillation frequency of the wings. Biologists study this phenomenon by clipping an insects wings to reduce their mass. If the wing system is modeled as a simple harmonic oscillator, by what percent will the frequency change if the wing mass is decreased by 25%? Will it increase or decrease?
