Problem 9P
A 0.60-kg mass at the end of a spring vibrates 3.0 times per second with an amplitude of 0.13 m. Determine (a) the velocity when it passes the equilibrium point, (b) the velocity when it is 0.10 m from equilibrium, (c) the total energy of the system, (d) the equation describing the motion of the mass, assuming that x was a maximum at t = 0.
ANSWER:
Solution
Step 1 of 4
- We need to find out the velocity when the spring passes the equilibrium point.
At equilibrium, the velocity will be maximum and the velocity at the equilibrium is given by,
