Answer:

The mass of the meter stick is  1.66054054054g

Explanation:

Here since the meter stick is in equilibrium position its net torque and net force should be equal to zero

      Since at the begging the meter stick is balanced at center of the meter stick that means its center of mass should be present at 50.0cm

Now lets consider the later case where stick is balanced by two 5.12 g coins .

Here torque due to two coins = t_{c} = 5.12\times(27.8-24.2)\times2\times9.8

  Torque due to weight of meter stick =  t_{m} =  m\times(50-27.8)\times9.8

  where m = mass of the meter stick

    Here t_{c} = t_{m}.

Upon equating we will be getting mass of the meter stick =1.66054054054g

A block rests on a ?at plate that executes vertical simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.58s.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

maximum amplitude  = 0.08 m

Explanation:

Given that

Time period T= 0.58 s

acceleration of gravity g= 9.8 m/s²

We know that time period of simple harmonic motion given as

T = 2π/ω

0.58 = 2π/ω

ω = 10.83rad/s

ω=angular frequency

Lets take amplitude = A

The maximum acceleration given as

a= ω² A

The maximum acceleration should be equal to g ,then block does not separate

a= ω² A

9.8 =  10.83² A

A = 0.08m

maximum amplitude  = 0.08 m
