Refer to the diagram shown.
When the student climbs onto the platform, the spring stretches by 0.82 m to reach the equilibrium position.
The mass of the student is m = 90 kg, so his weight is
mg = (90 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 882 N
By definition, the spring constant is
k = (882 N)/(0.82 m) = 1075.6 N/m
When the spring is stretched by x from the equilibrium position, the restoring force is
F = - k*x.
If damping is ignored, the equation of motion is
F = m * acceleration
or
Define ω² = k/m = 11.751 => ω = 3.457.
Then the solution of the ODE is
x(t) = c₁ cos(ωt) + c₂ sin(ωt)
x'(t) = -c₁ω sin(ωwt) + c₂ω cos(ωt)
When t=0, x' =0, therefore c₂ = 0
The solution is of the form
x(t) = c₁ cos(ωt)
When t = 0, x = 0.32 m. Therefore c₁ = 0.32
The motion is
x(t) = 0.32 cos(3.457t)
The single amplitude is 0.32 m, and the double amplitude is 0.64 m.
Answer:
0.32 m (single amplitude), or
0.64 m (double amplitude)

PART a)
As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula
here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance
so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position
So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point
PART b)
Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here
so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum
So here speed is maximum at the nearest point
Part C)
since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance
