Question

a. Critically damped solutions of the mass-on-a-spring equation
mu" + yu' + ku = 0
exhibit sustained, long-term oscillations.
TRUE
FALSE
b. The displacement of an underdamped mass-spring system is a quasi-periodic
function (i.e. it shows periodic-like motion, but it is not truly periodic because its
amplitude is decreasing so it does not exactly repeat itself). It is oscillating at
quasi-frequency, which is u radians per second. (It's just the frequency of the
sinusoidal components of the displacement.) The peak- to-peak time of the
oscillation is the quasi-period. The quasi-period of a mass undergoing damped free
vibrations is the inverse of the natural period of the corresponding undamped
system.
TRUE
FALSE

B 1.5m One end of a light inextensible string is attached to a particle A of mass 2kg. The other end of the string is attached to a second particle B of mass 2.5kg. Particle A is in contact with a rough plane inclined at e to the horizontal, where cos e =. The string is taut and passes over a small smooth pulley P at the top of the plane. The part of the string from A to P is parallel to a line of greatest slope of the plane. Particle B hangs freely below Pat a distance 1.5m above horizontal ground, as shown in the diagram.

A simple device to measure projectile speed consists of a block of ballistic material of mass M attached to a wall by a spring (of negligible mass; we don't know its spring constant) and resting on a flat, frictionless surface. The device is impacted by a projectile of mass m, which embeds itself in the material, after which the two move together in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A and period T. a) During the collision for this system, is energy conserved? Is momentum in the horizontal direction conserved? b) After the collision, is energy conserved? What about momentum? c) What was the initial velocity v of the projectile before the collision (again in terms of m, M, A, and T)? d) Compute v for m = 5 g, M = 1 kg, A = 5 cm, and T = 0.201 s.
