A mass attached to a spring oscillates in simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 10 cm. When the mass is 5.0 cm from its eq

timama [110]

When the mass is 5.0 cm from its equilibrium point, the percentage of its energy that is kinetic is 75%.

<h3>Total energy of the mass</h3>

The total energy possessed by the mass under the simple harmonic motion is calculated as follows;

U = ¹/₂kA²

where;

k is the spring constant
A is the amplitude of the oscillation

<h3>Potential energy of the mass at 5 cm from equilibrium point</h3>

P.E = ¹/₂k(Δx)²

<h3>Kinetic energy of mass</h3>

K.E = U - P.E

K.E = ¹/₂kA² - ¹/₂k(Δx)²

<h3>Percentage of its energy that is kinetic</h3>

$K.E (\%) = \frac{U - P.E}{U} \times 100\%\\\\K.E (\%) =\frac{\frac{1}{2}kA^2 - \frac{1}{2}k(\Delta x)^2 }{\frac{1}{2}kA^2} \times 100\%\\\\K.E (\%) = \frac{A^2 - (\Delta x)^2}{A^2} \times 100\%\\\\K.E (\%) = \frac{10^2 - (10-5)^2}{10^2} \times 100\%\\\\K.E (\%) = \frac{10^2 - 5^2}{10^2} \times 100\%\\\\K.E (\%) = 75\%$
