Question

The mass of a mass-and sping system is displaced 10 cm fromits equlilbrium position and released. A frequency of 4.0 Hz isobservered. What frequency would be oif the obsereved if tha masshad been displaced only 5.0 cm and then released? a 2.0 Hz b 8.0 Hz c 4.0 Hz d none of the above will rate asap The mass of a mass-and sping system is displaced 10 cm fromits equlilbrium position and released.

Explanation / Answer

In Mass and Spring system , frequency is given by :                            f   = 1 / 2    k /m Where k = Spring constant            m = Mass attached. From the above relation we can say that , Frequency does notdepends upon displacement. Hence if the obsereved if tha mass had been displaced only 5.0cm and then released , frequancy remains the same.             Ans :   f = 4.0 Hz Hope this helps u!
