Question:
Consider a block of mass m attached to a spring with forceconstant k. The spring can be either stretched or compressed.The block slides on a frictionless horizontal surface, as shown.When the spring is relaxed, the block is located at x=0. If theblock is pulled to the right at a distance of A and thenreleased, A will be the amplitude ofthe resulting oscillations.
Assume that the mechanical energy of the block-spring systemremains unchanged in the subsequent motion of the block.
Part 1: An oscillating object takes 0.10 s to completeone cycle; that is, its period is 0.10 s. What is its frequency?Express in hertz
Part 2: If the frequency is 40 Hz, what is theperiod T? Express in seconds
Part 3: How much time does the block take to travelfrom the point of maximum displacement to the opposite point ofmaximum displacement? Express in seconds
Part 4: What distance does the object cover during oneperiod of oscillation? Express in meters
Part 5: What distance does the object cover between themoments labeled K and N on the graph? Express in meters
