Answer:

Potential energy, PE = 2.94 joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 0.3 kg

It is placed at a height of, h = 1 m

We need to find the gravitational potential energy of the book. It is given by :

PE = mgh

$PE=0.3\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1\ m$

PE = 2.94 Joules

So, the potential energy of the book at this height is 2.94 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

the period T of whole motion should be twice the value for half at he bottom so T is 0.2sec.

w is angular frequency

formula:2π/T

now k is spring constant

F/R-->mw²

putting values:70*(2π/0.2)²

=4.9x10⁶

so we can say that SHM is not affected by the amplitude of the bounce.

Explanation:

<u>Simple Harmonic Motion</u>

A mass-spring system is a common example of a simple harmonic motion device since it keeps oscillating when the spring is stretched back and forth.

If a mass m is attached to a spring of constant k and they are set to oscillate, the angular frequency of the motion is

$\displaystyle w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

The equation for the motion of the object is written as a sinusoid:

$\displaystyle X=A\ cos\ w\ t$

Where A is the amplitude.

The instantaneous speed is computed as the derivative of the distance

$\displaystyle X'=V=-A\ w\ sin\ w\ t$

And the maximum speed is

$\displaystyle V_{max}= A\ w$

Solving for the amplitude

$\displaystyle A= \frac{V_{max}}{w}$

Computing w

$\displaystyle w =\sqrt{\frac{120}{0.2}}=24.5\ rad/ s$

Calculating A

$\displaystyle A=\frac{1.7}{24.5}=0.069\ m$

$\displaystyle \boxed{A=6.9\ cm}$
