Question
a system where you attach a mass to spring and hang the system vertically. Imagine taking this system, pulling the mass down and letting it go. The mass will oscillate with simple harmonic motion between -xm (the bottom), +xm (the top) and x=0 (the original rest position). Answer the following questions with reference to the points +xm, -xm, and x=0. ................ a) At what point(s) does the mass have the most potential energy? The least potential energy? Explain.................... b) At what point(s) does the mass feel the most force? The least force? Explain.................... **please help will vote lifesaver****Explanation / Answer
a. at the top +x point cause potential energy increases with height p.e=mgh and the least potential energy will at -xm cause its the minimum height in motion b.mass will feel more force at the point which is near to earth. which is -x and the least force at the top +x it is due to as we know when we move away from earth the gravitation force decreases. so near the earth the force will more hope u better understand rate me well
