Friction is what's letting gymnast control his weight by having a tight grip on the bar. Without friction it would be like them trying hold on to ice.

If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it will oscillate. If i

Blababa [14]

Explanation:

An object is attached to the spring and then released. It begins to oscillate. If it is displaced a distance 0.125 m from its equilibrium position and released with zero initial speed. The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of the particle. So, its amplitude is 0.125 m.

After 0.800 seconds, its displacement is found to be a distance 0.125 m on the opposite side. The time period will be, $t=2\times 0.8=1.6\ s$

We know that the relation between the time period and the time period is given by :

$f=\dfrac{1}{t}$

$f=\dfrac{1}{1.6}$

f = 0.625 Hz

So, the frequency of the object is 0.625 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.
