Answer:
1) 2.9m/s
2)0.235cm
3)0.509s
Explanation:
1. moments are conserved, when the steak hits the pan:
velocity 'v' of the steak:
v = √(2gh) = √(2*9.81*0.5) = 3.13 m/s
velocity pan + steak is
v =
= 2.5*3.13/(2.7) = <u>2.9 m/s </u>
<u />
2.initial kinetic energy of pan + steak = spring energy
1/2 mv² = 1/2 kA²
where, A = amplitude
2.7 x 2.9² = 410 x A²
A²=22.707/410
A = 0.235 cm
3. T = 2π√(m/k) = 2π√(2.7/410) = 0.509 s
Therefore, the period of that motion is 0.509s
