Answer:
K_{total} = 19.4 J
Explanation:
The total kinetic energy that is formed by the linear part and the rotational part is requested
let's look for each energy
linear
= ½ m v²
rotation
= ½ I w²
the moment of inertia of a solid sphere is
I = 2/5 m r²
we substitute
= ½ mv² + ½ I w²
angular and linear velocity are related
v = w r
we substitute
K_{total} = ½ m w² r² + ½ (2/5 m r²) w²
K_{total} = m w² r² (½ + 1/5)
K_{total} = m w² r²
let's calculate
K_{total} = 6.40 16.0² 0.130²
K_{total} = 19.4 J
At t=0, the particle was at its equilibrium position. The time period is 32 seconds, so in 8 seconds, it will reach the extreme location once, and hence, in 8 seconds, it will cover a distance equivalent to its amplitude.
