Question

A 675g air-track glider attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0N/m is sitting at rest on a frictionless air track. A 475g glider is pushed toward it from the far end of the track at a speed of 80.0cm/s . It collides with and sticks to the 675g glider. Part A What is the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations? Express your answer with the appropriate units. A 675g air-track glider attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0N/m is sitting at rest on a frictionless air track.

Explanation / Answer

When the 475 gm glider sticks to the 675 gm glider. They move together with a velocity .

By conserving the momentum 475*80 =(475+675)V

v=33 cm/sec

This initial KE is converted to max PE at max displace met.

0.5 * K* X^2 = 0.5 (M+m)*V^2

x= 9.8 cm
