A block attached to a spring with unknown spring constant oscillates with a period of 7.0 s. Parts a to d are independent questions, each referring to the initial situation. What is the period if

a. The mass is halved?
b. The amplitude is doubled?
c. The spring constant is doubled?
d. The mass is doubled?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 4.95 s

b) 7.00 s

c) 4.95 s

d) 9.9 s

Explanation:

The equation for the period of the object is

T=2×π×[tex]\sqrt{m/k}[/tex] =[tex]T_{0}[/tex]=7.0 s............................(1)

m= mass of the object

k= spring constant

For part (a)

m=[tex]\frac1{2}[/tex]

putting the value of m in equation (1)

T=4.95 s

For part (b)

the period does not depends on amplitude therefore

T=7.00 s

For part (c)

spring constant=2k

putting the value of spring constant in equation (1)

T=4.95 s

For part (d)

m= 2

putting the value of m in equation (1)

T=9.9 s

a) 4.95 s when the mass is halved

b) 7.00 s when the amplitude is doubled

c) 4.95 s when spring constant is doubled

d) 9.9 s when mass is doubled

Given:

T₀=7.0 s

The equation for the time period of the object is

[tex]T=2*\pi *\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }[/tex]        ......................(i)

where m= mass of an object and k= spring constant

  • For solving a.

m= 1/2

∵T=7.0 s

On substituting value in equation (i)

Thus, T=4.95 s

  • For solving b.

Time period does not depend on amplitude thus,

T=7.0 s

  • For solving c.

Spring constant, k=2k

On substituting value in equation (i)

Thus, T=4.95 s

  • For solving d.

Mass=2m

On substituting value in equation (i)

Thus, T=9.9 s
