 ## Exercise 1: analyzing the diatomic vibrating chain
 
 ### Subquestion 1

+Use the small angle approximation $\sin(k) \approx k$ to ease calculations. For the taylor polynomial take $\omega^2 = f(x) = f(0) + f'(0)k + f''(0)k^2$ (some terms vanish). You should find: $$|v_g| = \sqrt{\frac{\kappa a^2}{2(m_a+m_2)}}$$
