*39. Review Conceptual Example 8 before starting this problem. A block is attached to a horizontal spring and oscillates back and forth on a fric- tionless horizontal surface at a frequency of 3.00 Hz. The amplitude of the motion is 5.08 X 10-² m. At the point where the block has its maximum speed, it suddenly splits into two identical parts, only one part remaining attached to the spring.

A 3kg block is attached to one end of a spring and resting on a frictionless surface. The mass is pulled away from rest and put to motion. A motion sensor is stationed to capture the data from the motion and we are given the following equation for the speed of the object in meters per second: v=-6.5 sin(4.0t). What would be the amplitude of the motion, the angular frequency, and the spring constant?
A spring hangs vertically from a ceiling. The spring constant of the spring is k=15 N/m. A 2kg object has been attached to the spring and the spring has already come to its new equilibrium. Someone pulls the object down by 5cm and releases it at time t = 0s. The spring and object begin to oscillate under simple harmonic motion. Find the total energy of the system, the maximum kinetic energy, the maximum potential energy, and the positions where the maximum energies occur. Answers: 0.01875 J, 0.01875 J
A 0.50 kg object rests on a frictionless horizontal surface, where it is attached to a massless spring whose k-value equals 25.0 N/m. Let x be the displacement, where x = 0 is the equilibrium position and x > 0 when the spring is stretched. The object is pushed, and the spring compressed, until xi = −4.00 cm. It then is released from rest and undergoes simple harmonic motion. How fast is the object moving (in m/s) when the spring is momentarily compressed by 1.30 cm (that is, when x = −1.30 cm)? How fast is the object moving (in m/s) whenever the spring is extended by 1.30 cm (that is, when passing through x = +1.30 cm)?
A 0.1 kg object oscillates as a simple harmonic motion along the x -axis with a frequency f = 3.185 Hz. At a position xì, the object has a kinetic energy of 0.7 J and a potential energy 0.3 J. The amplitude of oscillation, A, is
Oscillation: A 175 g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring of force constant, k=155 N/m. When it is 3.0 cm from the equilibrium position, it is moving at 0.815 m/s. What is the amplitude oscillation?
In Concept Simulation 10.2 you can explore the concepts that are important in this problem. Astronauts on a distant planet set up a simple pendulum of length 1.20 m. The pendulum executes simple harmonic motion and makes 100 complete oscillations in 390 s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on this planet?
A simple pendulum of length L, has a maximum angular displacement e_max. At one point in its motion, its kinetic energy is K = 3 Jand its potential energy is U = 4.2 J. When the pendulum's angular velocity is one-third its maximum value (e' = e'_max/3), then its kinetic energy is: O K = 0.45 J O K = 0.75 J O K= 1.8 J O K = 0.8 J O K= 1J

Astronauts in space cannot weigh themselves by standing on a bathroom scale. Instead, they determine their mass by oscillating on a large spring. Suppose an astronaut attaches one end of a large spring to her belt and the other end to a hook on the wall of the space capsule. A fellow astronaut then pulls her away from the wall and releases her. The spring's length as a function of time is shown in the figure (Figure 1).

an object weights 1.2 N. when you hang it from one end of a long spring of force constant 2.5 N/m, object bounces up and down in SMH. if you stop the bouncing and let the object swing from side to side through a small angle, like a simple pendulum, the frequency is half the bounce frequency. what is the length of the pendulum? neglect mass of spring.
