Answer:
x = 2.84 cm
Explanation:
First we can find the frequency of the oscillation given as
[tex]f = \frac{v}{d}[/tex]
here we know that
d = 5.0 m
v = 5.3 m/s
now we have
[tex]f = \frac{5.3}{5}[/tex]
[tex]f = 1.06 Hz[/tex]
now we know that
[tex]f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex]
so we have
[tex]1.06 = \frac{1}{2\pi} \sqrt{\frac{k}{1190}}[/tex]
[tex]k = 5.28 \times 10^4 N/m[/tex]
Now by the formula of spring force we know that
[tex]F = kx[/tex]
so we have
[tex]1.5 \times 10^3 = (5.28 \times 10^4) x[/tex]
[tex]x = 0.0284 m[/tex]
[tex]x = 2.84 cm[/tex]
