A 1.5 kg block initially at rest, is launched by a horizontal spring with a spring constant of k-175 N/m. The spring is initially compressed a distance of 25 cm from equilibrium. After being launched, the block travels toward the top of a frictionless incline and comes to rest after reaching a maximum height of has shown below. Apply the Conservation of Energy Theorem to determine, a. The object's launch velocity at the spring's point of equilibrium in m/s. b. The maximum height reached by the block (h) in meters. c. Determine the impulse delivered by the spring in kg-m/s. (Hint: consider the initial and final locations as x,- - 25 cm and x=0 cm). d. Determine the average force exerted by the spring on the block (in Newtons) if the time of contact equals 0.185 seconds. e. Determine the average power delivered by the spring in watts. but 1.5-kg X₁25 cm T h
Simple harmonic motion
Simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion in which an object undergoes oscillatory motion. The restoring force exerted by the object exhibiting SHM is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. The force is directed towards the mean position. We see many examples of SHM around us, common ones are the motion of a pendulum, spring and vibration of strings in musical instruments, and so on.
Simple Pendulum
A simple pendulum comprises a heavy mass (called bob) attached to one end of the weightless and flexible string.
Oscillation
In Physics, oscillation means a repetitive motion that happens in a variation with respect to time. There is usually a central value, where the object would be at rest. Additionally, there are two or more positions between which the repetitive motion takes place. In mathematics, oscillations can also be described as vibrations. The most common examples of oscillation that is seen in daily lives include the alternating current (AC) or the motion of a moving pendulum.
