- A block of mass M is connected to a spring of mass m and oscillates in simple harmonic motion on a frictionless, horizontal track (Fig. P12.69). The force constant of the spring is k, and the equilibrium length is . Assume all portions of the spring oscillate in phase and the velocity of a segment of the spring of length dx is proportional to the distance x from the fixed end; that is, vx = (x/) v. Also, notice that the mass of a segment of the spring is dm = (m/) dx. Find (a) the kinetic energy of the system when the block has a speed v and (b) the period of oscillation. Figure P12.69arrow_forwardA nylon string has mass 5.50 g and length L = 86.0 cm. The lower end is tied to the floor, and the upper end is tied to a small set of wheels through a slot in a track on which the wheels move (Fig. P14.56). The wheels have a mass that is negligible compared with that of the string, and they roll without friction on the track so that the upper end of the string is essentially free. At equilibrium, the string is vertical and motionless. When it is carrying a small-amplitude wave, you may assume the string is always under uniform tension 1.30 N. (a) Find the speed of transverse waves on the string. (b) The strings vibration possibilities are a set of standing-wave states, each with a node at the fixed bottom end and an anti-node at the free top end. Find the nodeantinode distances for each of the three simplest states. (c) Find the frequency of each of these states.

- A string with a mass m = 8.00 g and a length L = 5.00 m has one end attached to a wall; the other end is draped over a small, fixed pulley a distance d = 4.00 m from the wall and attached to a hanging object with a mass M = 4.00 kg as in Figure P14.21. If the horizontal part of the string is plucked, what is the fundamental frequency of its vibration? Figure P14.21arrow_forwardReview. Consider the apparatus shown in Figure P14.68a, where the hanging object has mass M and the string is vibrating in its second harmonic. The vibrating blade at the left maintains a constant frequency. The wind begins to blow to the right, applying a constant horizontal force on the hanging object. What is the magnitude of the force the wind must apply to the hanging object so that the string vibrates in its first harmonic as shown in Figure 14.68b? Figure P14.68arrow_forwardAs in Figure P18.16, a simple harmonic oscillator is attached to a rope of linear mass density 5.4 102 kg/m, creating a standing transverse wave. There is a 3.6-kg block hanging from the other end of the rope over a pulley. The oscillator has an angular frequency of 43.2 rad/s and an amplitude of 24.6 cm. a. What is the distance between adjacent nodes? b. If the angular frequency of the oscillator doubles, what happens to the distance between adjacent nodes? c. If the mass of the block is doubled instead, what happens to the distance between adjacent nodes? d. If the amplitude of the oscillator is doubled, what happens to the distance between adjacent nodes? FIGURE P18.16arrow_forward
- Review. A tuning fork vibrating at 512 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s2. How far below the point of release is the tuning fork when waves of frequency 485 Hz reach the release point?arrow_forwardA system consists of a vertical spring with force constant k = 1 250 N/m, length L = 1.50 m, and object of mass m = 5.00 kg attached to the end (Fig. P13.76). The object is placed at the level of the point of attachment with the spring unstretched, at position yi = L, and then it is released so that it swings like a pendulum. (a) Write Newton’s second law symbolically for the system as the object passes through its lowest point. (Note that at the lowest point, r = L − yf.) (b) Write the conservation of energy equation symbolically, equating the total mechanical energies at the initial point and lowest point. (c) Find the coordinate position of the lowest point.
