3. You have two springs. One has a greater spring constant than the other. You also have two objects, one with a greater mass than the other. Which object should be attached to which spring, so that the resulting spring-object system has the greatest possible period of oscillation? (a) The object with the greater mass should be attached to the spring with the greater spring constant. (b) The object with the greater mass should be attached to the spring with the smaller spring constant. (c) The object with the smaller mass should be attached to the spring with the smaller spring constant. (d) The object with the smaller mass should be attached to the spring with the greater spring constant.

6. A 2.0 kg mass attached to a 24.0 N/m massless spring is driven by an external force F = F, cos (2nt) where Fo= 12.0 N. Assuming that the damping coefficient b is so small that it can be neglected, find a) the period of the oscillator, and b) the amplitude of its motion.
A mass on a spring oscillates with an amplitude 0.12 m and a period of 1.0 s. What will be the acceleration of the mass at t = 0.50s? A) 4.7 m/s² B) -4.7 m/s² C) 0.12 m/s² D) 0 m/s?
Two people with a combined mass of 127 kg hop into an old car with worn-out shock absorbers. This causes the springs to compress by 9.10 cm. When the car hits a bump in the road, it oscillates up and down with a period of 1.75s. 1)Find the total load supported by the springs M+m=(?)Kg2)Find the mass of the car M=(?)Kg
24. A mass-spring system is set up so that the mass oscillates in the horizontal. The mass is 0.88_kg, and the spring has constant 45_N/m. The mass is pulled back so that the spring stretches 0.72 m, and then the mass is released. Find the speed of the mass when it is located at 0.31 m. (Assume there is no friction between the mass and the tabletop.)
A spring has a length of 0.180 m when a 0.300 kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.750 m when a 2.10 kg mass hangs from it. (a) What is the force constant (in N/m) of the spring? N/m (b) What is the unloaded length (in m) of the spring? m
Does the period of oscillation depend on the hanging mass? Justify your answer.Does the period of oscillation vary with the amplitude of oscillation, if you keep the hanging mass constant? Justify your answer.
How will the period of an oscillating system change if its angular frequency is increased by a factor of four? A decrease by a factor of 2t/4 B decrease by 4 C increase by a factor of 2n/4 (D increase by a factor of four
If you were to release your pendulum, regardless of amplitude, mass or length, it will swing less and less, and eventually and come to a stop on its own. This is due to friction. List 2 places friction is found in your system.
