Question

I shared a picture of the problem. It’s a basic Physics question and an Algebra question.

Answer 1

Hence the expression of ω in terms of m and k is

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}$

Given the expressions;

$T_s = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \ and \ T_s = \frac{2 \pi}{\omega}$

Equating both expressions we will have;

$2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } = \frac{2 \pi}{\omega}$

Divide both equations by 2π

$\frac{2 \pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{2 \pi} } }{2 \pi}=\frac{\frac{2 \pi}{\omega} }{2\pi}\\\sqrt{\frac{m}{2 \pi} } = \frac{1}{\omega}$

Square both sides

$(\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } )^2 = (\frac{1}{\omega} )^2\\\frac{m}{k} = \frac{1}{\omega ^2} \\\omega ^2 = \frac{k}{m}$

Take the square root of both sides

$\sqrt{\omega ^2} =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}$

Hence the expression of ω in terms of m and k is

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}$
