Answer:
a. A = 0.1656 m
b. % E = 1.219
Explanation:
Given
mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150 m/s , k = 500 N / m
a.
To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy
ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0
¹/₂ * m * v² - ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0
A = √ mB * vₓ² / k
vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB
vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518
A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)² / (500 N / m)
A = 0.1656 m
b.
The percentage of kinetic energy
%E = Es / Ek
Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5
Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N
% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100
% E = 1.219
To solve this problem we will begin by finding the pressure through density and average depth. Later we will find the Force, by means of the relation of the pressure and the area.

Here,
h = Depth average
= Density
Moreover,

Replacing,


Finally the force
