Mutiple Choice Question 16 A student must determine how the mass of a block affects the period of oscillation when the block is attachedto a vertical spring. The value of the spring constant is known. The student writes the following experimentalprocedure.1. Use an electronic balance to measure the mass of the block.2. Attach the block to the vertical spring.3. Displace the block from the system's equilibrium position to a new vertical position.4. Release the block from rest.5. Use a meterstick to measure the vertical displacement of the center of mass of the block from thesystem's equilibrium position to its maximum vertical position above the equilibrium position.6. Use a stopwatch to measure the time it takes for the system to make ten complete oscillations.7. Repeat the experiment for different vertical displacements and block masses.Which of the following steps of the procedure should the student revise to make the determination? Justify yourselection.Step 3, because the student must specify whether the new vertical position should be above orAbelow the system's equilibrium position.Step 5, because the meterstick should be used to measure total displacement of the systemfrom its lowest vertical position to its highest vertical position.Step 6, because the stopwatch should be used only to measure the time it takes for the systemto make 1 complete oscillation.Step 7, because the experiment should not be repeated for different vertical displacements andblock masses.
