Spring Systems

A spring of force constant 180180 N/m is loaded with a mass 0.200.20 kg. The amplitude of oscillations is 44 cm. When mass comes to equillibrium position, its velocity in m/s is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. ω=k/m=180/0.20=30 rad/s\omega = \sqrt{k/m} = \sqrt{180/0.20} = 30\text{ rad/s}.
  2. At equilibrium vmax=Aω=0.04×30=1.2 m/sv_{max} = A\omega = 0.04 \times 30 = 1.2\text{ m/s}.
  3. So the answer is (b) 1.21.2.
