Explanation / Answer

given
m = 4.90 kg
k = 130 N/m

at x = 0.165 m, v = 3.17 m/s

a) let A is the amplitude of motion.

Apply conservation of energy

total energy = sum of potential and kinetic energy

(1/2)*k*A^2 = (1/2)*k*x^2 + (1/2)*m*v^2

A^2 = x^2 + (m/k)*v^2

A = sqrt(x^2 + (m/k)*v^2)

= sqrt(0.165^2 + (4.9/130)*3.17^2)

= 0.637 m <<<<<<<<<<<----------------------Answer

b) angular frequency of motion,

w = sqrt(k/m)

= sqrt(130/4.9)

= 5.15 rad/s

let phi is the phase constant.

x = A*cos(w*t + phi)

at t = 2.2 s, x = 0.165 m

so,

0.165 = 0.637*cos(5.15*2.2 + phi)

0.165/0.637 = cos(11.33 + phi)

0.259 = cos(11.33 + phi)

11.33 + phi = cos^-(0.259)

11.3 + phi = 1.309

phi = 1.409 - 11.33

= -9.92 radians

so,

at t = 0,

x = A*cos(w*t + phi)

= 0.637*cos(0 - 9.92)

= -0.560 m <<<<<<<<-----------------Answer

c) v = dx/dt

= A*(-sin(wt + phi)*w

= -A*w*sin(wt + phi)

at t = 0,

v = -0.637*5.15*sin(0 - 9.92)

= -1.56 m/s <<<<<<<<-----------------------Answer
