Answer to Problem 1ASA

The relationship between Hooke’s law and Simple Harmonic Motion is that any particle that obeying Hooke’s law would execute simple harmonic motion

Explanation of Solution

Hooke’s law:

One of the properties of elasticity that takes twice as much force to stretch out a spring twice as far. This linear dependence of the displacement on force of stretching is known as Hooke’s law.

Hooke’s law states that the force required to the stretch of the spring is directly proportional to stretch.

Write the expression for the Hooke’s law.

  F=kx

Here, F is the force required to the stretch of the spring, k is the spring constant, x is the stretch distance.

Simple Harmonic Motion:

The motion of a mass on a spring when it is elastic force of restoring given by the Hooke’s law.

The motion of the particle that subjected to restoring force that vibrate to and fro movement from the point of equilibrium is known as Simple Harmonic Motion.

Conclusion:

The relationship between Hooke’s law and Simple Harmonic Motion is that any particle that obeying Hooke’s law would execute simple harmonic motion

A bungee jumper plans to bungee jump from a bridge 64.0 m above the ground. He plans to use a uniform elastic cord, tied to a harness around his body, to stop his fall at a point 6.00 m above the water. Model his body as a particle and the cord as having negligible mass and obeying Hooke's law. In a preliminary test he finds that when hanging at rest from a 5.00 m length of the cord, his body weight stretches it by 1.55 m. He will drop from rest at the point where the top end of a longer section of the cord is attached to the bridge. (a) What length of cord should he use? Use subscripts 1 and 2 respectively to represent the 5.00 m test length and the actual jump length. Use Hooke's law F = KAL and the fact that the change in length AL for a given force is proportional the length L (AL = CL), to determine the force constant for the test case and for the jump case. Use conservation of mechanical energy to determine the length of the rope. m (b) What maximum acceleration will he…
