QUESTION #1: Consider the mass-spring system on a horizontal frictionless table top, as shown below. Displace the mass some small distance x from equilibrium. k m w wkw m х
a (8) Now pull the block a distance A from its equilibrium position and release it at t = 0 second. i. When is the potential energy maximized? What is its value at that time in terms of the period? ii. Find two other times at which this potential energy has that same value. iii. When is the kinetic energy maximized? What is its value at that time? iv. Write an expression for the total mechanical energy of the system at an arbitrary time and show that total mechanical energy is conserved.
