A 50-cm-long spring is suspended from the ceiling. A 330 g mass is connected to the end and held at rest with the spring unstretched. The mass is released and falls, stretching the spring by 20 cm before coming to rest at its lowest point. It then continues to oscillate vertically. a. What is the spring constant? (K=)
b. What is the amplitude of the oscillation?
c. What is the frequency of the oscillation?

a)32.34 N/m

b)10cm

c)1.6 Hz

Explanation:

Let 'k' represent spring constant

'm' mass of the object= 330g =>0.33kg

a) in order to find spring constant 'k', we apply Newton's second law to the equilibrium position 10cm below the release point.

ΣF=kx-mg=0

k=mg / x

k= (0.33 x 9.8)/ 0.1

k= 32.34 N/m

b) The amplitude, A, is the distance from the equilibrium (or center) point of motion to either its lowest or highest point (end points). The amplitude, therefore, is half of the total distance covered by the oscillating object.

Therefore, amplitude of the oscillation is 10cm

c)frequency of the oscillation can be determined by,

f= 1/2π

f= 1/2π

f= 1.57

f≈ 1.6 Hz

Therefore,  the frequency of the oscillation is 1.6 Hz

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.
