QUESTION:
Figure 13–28 shows a displacement-versus-time graph of the periodic motion of a 3.8-kg mass on a spring. (a) Referring to the figure, do you expect the maximum speed of the mass to be greater than, less than, or equal to 0.50 m/s? Explain. (b) Calculate the maximum speed of the mass. (c) How much energy is stored in this system?
ANSWER:
Solution 91GP
Step 1 of 3
Part a
We are required to compare the maximum speed of the given mass with 0.50 m/s.
The maximum speed of the mass would be greater than 0.5 m/s, because the time period value (4.0 s) is less than .
