QUESTION 3
A 1.50-kg mass on a spring has displacement as a function of
time given by the equation A body hanging from one end of a vertical spring performs
Find vertical SHM. The distance between two points, at which the
(a) the time for one complete vibration; speed of the body is zero is 7.5 cm. If the time taken for the
(b) the force constant of the spring;
body to move between the two points is 0.17 s, Determine
(c) the maximum speed of the mass;
(d) the maximum force on the mass; a. the amplitude of the motion,
(e) the position, speed, and acceleration of the mass at t= 2.00 s
(f) the force on the mass at that time b. the frequency of the motion,
c. the maximum acceleration of body in the motion.
