Answer:
a)32.34 N/m
b)10cm
c)1.6 Hz
Explanation:
Let 'k' represent spring constant
'm' mass of the object= 330g =>0.33kg
a) in order to find spring constant 'k', we apply Newton's second law to the equilibrium position 10cm below the release point.
ΣF=kx-mg=0
k=mg / x
k= (0.33 x 9.8)/ 0.1
k= 32.34 N/m
b) The amplitude, A, is the distance from the equilibrium (or center) point of motion to either its lowest or highest point (end points). The amplitude, therefore, is half of the total distance covered by the oscillating object.
Therefore, amplitude of the oscillation is 10cm
c)frequency of the oscillation can be determined by,
f= 1/2π
f= 1/2π
f= 1.57
f≈ 1.6 Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the oscillation is 1.6 Hz
Answer:
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.
The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.
Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.
To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.
W = m*g
W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]
W = 12.75 [N]
