Time period B. Total mechanical energy of the mass C. Amplitude
A 1.5-kg mass attached to an ideal massless spring with a spring constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At time t = 0.00 s, the mass is released from x = 0.0 cm with a velocity of 0.370 m/s to the left. Find the following
A. Time period
B. Total
C. Amplitude
D. Phase constant of motion. Discuss the two possible values of phase constant you get and explain how you arrived at the correct answer. Write the equation of motion.
E. Maximum acceleration of the mass. (Acceleration is maximum when it is
positive). How long after the release does the maximum acceleration occur?
F. Draw the position-time graph for one cycle of motion.
