Question

The following questions refer to the figure (Figure 2) that graphically depicts the oscillations of the block on the spring.

Note that the vertical axis represents the x coordinate of the oscillating object, and the horizontal axis represents time.

Part E

Which points on the x axis are located a distance A from the equilibrium position?

Which points on the x axis are located a distance  from the equilibrium position?

Part F

Suppose that the period is T. Which of the following points on the t axis are separated by the time interval T?

Suppose that the period is . Which of the following points on the t axis are separated by the time interval ?

Now assume for the remaining Parts G - J, that the x coordinate of point R is 0.12 m and the tcoordinate of point K is 0.0050 s.

Part G

What is the period T ?

Express your answer in seconds.

Part H

How much time t does the block take to travel from the point of maximum displacement to the opposite point of maximum displacement?

Express your answer in seconds.

Part I

What distance d does the object cover during one period of oscillation?

Express your answer in meters.

Part J

What distance d does the object cover between the moments labeled K and N on the graph?

Express your answer in meters.
