Tall buildings are designed to sway in the wind. In a 100-km/h wind, for example, the top of the 110-story Sears Tower oscillates horizontally with an amplitude of 15 cm. The building oscillates at its natural frequency, which has a period of 7.0 s. Assuming SHM, find the maximum horizontal velocity experienced by a Sears employee as she sits working at her desk located on the top floor.
Find the maximum acceleration experienced by a Sears employee as she sits working at her desk located on the top floor.
Compare the maximum acceleration (as a percentage) with the acceleration due to gravity.
*Make sure to include units.

Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.1 m below the tank bottom which is a = 7.4 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute)
