A 175-g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is
Chapter 14, Problem 37E(choose chapter or problem)
A 175-g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring with force constant 155 N/m. At the instant you make measurements on the glider, it is moving at 0.815 m/s and is 3.00 cm from its equilibrium point. Use energy ?conservation to find (a) the amplitude of the motion and (b) the maximum speed of the glider. (c) What is the angular frequency of the oscillations?

QUESTION:
A 175-g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring with force constant 155 N/m. At the instant you make measurements on the glider, it is moving at 0.815 m/s and is 3.00 cm from its equilibrium point. Use energy ?conservation to find (a) the amplitude of the motion and (b) the maximum speed of the glider. (c) What is the angular frequency of the oscillations?
ANSWER:Solution 37E Step 1: Introduction : In this question ,we need to find the amplitude of the motion In the second part we need to find the maximum speed of the glider In the third part we need to find the angular frequency of the oscillations Data given Mass of the glider m = 175 g = 0.175 kg Force constant k = 155 N/m Velocity v = 0.815 m/s Distance x = 3.0 cm
