Question

<p>For lunch you and your friends decide to stop at the nearest deli and have a sandwich made fresh for you with 0.100kg of turkey. The slices of turkey are weighed on a plate of mass 0.400kg placed atop a vertical spring of negligible mass and force constant of 200N/m . The slices of turkey are dropped on the plate all at the same time from a height of 0.250m . They make a totally inelastic collision with the plate and set the scale into vertical simple harmonic motion (SHM). You may assume that the collision time is extremely small.</p>
<p><br />What is the amplitude of oscillations of the scale after the slices of turkey land on the plate?<br />Express your answer numerically in meters and take free-fall acceleration to be = 9.80 m/s².</p>
