Question

An object with mass of 3kg is attached to a spring with spring stiffness constant k=280 N/m and is executing simple harmonic motion. When the object is 0.02m away from its equilibrium position, it is moving with a speed of 0.55 m/s. A) calculate the amplitude of the motion. B) calculate the maximum velocity attained bu the object.

Explanation / Answer

Velocity = (A^2-x^2)

Angular frequency = (k/m)
= (280/3)
= 93.33

Velocity v = 0.55 = 93.33(A^2-(0.02)^2)

Squaring both sides we get, 0.3025 = 93.33(A^2-(0.0004)
A^2 = 36.41 x 10^-4
Amplitude A = 6.03 x 10^-2 m

Maximum velocity = A = 93.33 x6.03 x 10^-2
0.58 m/s
