A block of mass [tex]$m = 0.629 \, \text{kg}$[/tex] is fastened to an unstrained horizontal spring with a spring constant of [tex]$k = 99.9 \, \text{N/m}$[/tex]. The block is displaced by [tex]+0.120 \, \text{m}[/tex] along the +x axis and then released from rest.

(a) What is the force (with sign) that the spring exerts on the block just before the block is released?

(b) Find the angular frequency of the resulting oscillatory motion.

(c) What is the maximum speed of the block?

(d) Determine the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the block.

Answer :

Following are the solution to the given points:

For part A)

The force exerted by the spring can be calculated using Hooke's law as follows:

[tex]\to F_s = -k\times x\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\to\text{Spring constant} (K) = 94.6 \frac{N}{m}\\\\\to x = \frac{\text{stretch}}{\text{extension of spring}} = 0.173\ m\\\\[/tex]

As a consequence, the season's force is as follows:

[tex]\to F_s = -94.6\times 0.173 = -16.3658 \ N[/tex]

(The -ve symbol denotes that the force exerted by the spring is in the opposite direction).

Calculating the three significant figures:

[tex]\to F_s = -16.4 \ N\\\\[/tex]

For part B)

The angular frequency of oscillatory motion is given by:

[tex]\to w = \sqrt{ (\frac{k}{m})}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]= \sqrt{ (\frac{94.6}{0.792})} \\\\= 10.929 \ \frac{rad}{sec}\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the three significant figures:

[tex]\to w = 10.9 \ \frac{rad}{sec}[/tex]

For part C)

maximum speed in SHM movement is provided by:

[tex]\to V_{max} = A \times w \\\\\to \text{Amplitude}\ (A) = 0.173 \ m\\\\[/tex]

So,

[tex]\to V_{max} = 0.173\times 10.929\\\\[/tex]

[tex]= 1.89 \ \frac{m}{s}\\\\[/tex]

For part D)

The maximum acceleration of the block is given by:

[tex]\to a_{max} = A\times w^2\\\\[/tex]

[tex]= 0.173\times 10.929^2\\\\ = 20.6636 \ \frac{m}{s^2}\\\\[/tex]

Calculating the three significant figures:


[tex]\to a_{max} = 20.7\ \frac{m}{s^2}\\\\[/tex]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) F = -kx = -99.9 * 0.12 = -11.988N

b)

[tex]F = ma = -kx\\ a = -\frac{k}{m} x\\[/tex]

Using for x,v,a :

[tex]x = A cos(\omega t + \phi)\\v = -\omega A sin(\omega t + \phi)\\a = -\omega ^{2} A cos(\omega t + \phi)\\a= - \omega ^2 x[/tex]

gives the angular frequency:

[tex]\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

ω = 12.6 1/s

c) v is max, when [tex]sin(\omega t + \phi) = 1[/tex]:

[tex]|v_{max}| = |-A\omega| = 0.12*12.6 = 1.512 \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

d) a is max, when [tex]cos(\omega t + \phi) = 1[/tex]:

[tex]|a_{max}|= |-\omega^2 A| = 12.6^2 * 0.12 = 19.05N[/tex]
