To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.

A) Conservation of Energy,

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv ^2 = \frac{1}{2} k A^2

Here,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

k = Spring constant

A = Amplitude

Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}

Replacing,

A = \sqrt{\frac{(0.750)(31*10^{-2})^2}{13}}

A = 0.0744m

(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.

The Period is defined as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

Replacing,

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.750}{13}}

T= 1.509s

Now the velocity is described as,

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-x^2}

v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-0.75A^2}

We have all the values, then replacing,

v = \frac{2\pi}{1.509}\sqrt{(0.0744)^2-(0.750(0.0744))^2}

v = 0.2049m/s

Answer:

Number of neautrons

Explanation:

Atoms from two different elements may have the same number of neutrons, but never the same number of protons. The number of protons is unique to the element and represents the atomic number. (sorcastic.org)

What is gibbs paradox?
mr_godi [17]
This leads to a paradox known as the Gibbs paradox, after Josiah Willard Gibbs. The paradox allows for the entropy of closed systems to decrease, violating the second law of thermodynamics. A related paradox is the "mixing paradox".
