Question

An object (mass = 262 g) is attached to a spring and caused to vibrate in a simple harmonic motion.  If the period of the oscillation is 2.77 s and the amplitude is 4.77 cm, find the maximum speed of the object in its oscillation. Calculate your answer in cm/s. Hint:  Find the spring constant first. Enter your answer with 3 significant figures An object (mass = 262 g) is attached to a spring and caused to vibrate in a simple harmonic motion.  If the period of the oscillation is 2.77 s and the amplitude is 4.77 cm, find the maximum speed of the object in its oscillation.

Explanation / Answer

w=2*pi/T

=2pi/2.77

=2.268 rad/s

so maximum speed=wA

=2.268*4.77

=10.82 cm/s
