Question

1) Fill the Chart:

Measure the displacement (to find the length, use a ruler) of the dot from the equilibrium position y (that is, the vertical position of the dot) in the nine frames B through J. The equilibrium position is y = 0 and the +y direction is vertically up. Using proper graphing techniques, plot yversus t for the dot on the attached graph paper. Make sure to draw vertical error bars on your graph. Sketch a reasonable fit (smooth curve) to the data. The graph must be constructed by hand (not computer generated). To calculate the displacement at each time, use the wave form appropriate to this situation.

Hint: what is the x coordinate of the dot in each frame?

Explanation / Answer

In order to calculate y we need the values of A(Amplitude) and f (frequency)...the value of lambda is not required as we need to do our calculations for x = 0..
