Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of block
M = 2kg
Spring constant k = 300N/m
Velocity v = 12m/s
At t = 0, the spring is neither stretched nor compressed. Then, it amplitude is zero at t=0
xo = 0
It velocity is 12m/s at t=0
Then, it initial velocity is
Vo = 12m/s
Then, amplitude is given as
A = √[xo + (Vo²/ω²)]
Where
xo is the initial amplitude =0
Vo is the initial velocity =12m/s
ω is the angular frequency and it can be determine using
ω = √(k/m)
Where
k is spring constant = 300N/m
m is the mass of object = 2kg
Then,
ω = √300/2 = √150
ω = 12.25 rad/s²
Then,
A = √[xo + (Vo²/ω²)]
A = √[0 + (12²/12.5²)]
A = √[0 + 0.96]
A = √0.96
A = 0.98m
