Almost true but not quite.
That would give you the negative of the actual acceleration.
It should be the other way around:
(final v) minus (initial v), then divide by time.
Answer:
an oscillator consisting of a material point of m = 200g vibrates under the action of an elastic force according to the equation y = 0.2sin (π / 4 • t + π / 16) (m)
calculate the period and frequency of the oscillation
calculate the speed and acceleration
calculate the Total Energy
Answer: 10 m/s^2
Explanation:
1) The second law of Newton gives the definition and formula to calculate the net force:
Net force acting on an object = mass * acceleration.
2) From that, when you know the net force acting of the object and its mass, you can solve for the acceleration:
acceleration = Net force / mass
acceleration = 50 N / 5 kg = 10 m/s^2, which is the answer.
A is not the correct answer because the amplitude and oscillation and there is 1/2 A in oscillation
