Hi there!

Recall the equation for centripetal force:
$F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

We can rearrange the equation to solve for 'r'.

Multiply both sides by r:
$r * F_c = mv^2$

Divide both sides by Fc:
$\boxed{ r= \frac{mv^2}{F_c}}$

A person exerts a 19-N force on a cart attached to a spring and holds the cart steady. The cart is displaced 0.060 m from its eq

Mariana [72]

To solve this problem, apply the concepts related to Hooke's law. From there we will find the spring constant. Subsequently, applying Energy balance, which includes gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy and kinetic energy, we will bury the system's energy. Finally, using the displacement expression for the simple harmonic movement, we will find the expression that describes the system.

PART A) The expression for the spring force is

$F=kx$

Here,

k = Spring constant

x = Displacement

Rearranging to find the spring constant we have that

$k = \frac{F}{x}$

$k = \frac{19}{0.06}$

$k = 316.66N/m \approx 320N/m$

PART B ) The gravitational potential energy acts on the spring holds the cart is zero. Since cart is placed in the equilibrium position. The kinetic energy of the cart is zero. Therefore the expression for the total energy is,

$E = (PE)_g+(PE)_{spring}+KE$

$E = 0+\frac{1}{2} kx^2+0$

$E = \frac{1}{2} (316.66N/m)(0.06)^2$

$E = 0.569J \approx 0.57J$

PART C) The expression for the angular frequency is

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi (1Hz)$

$\omega = 2\pi rad/s$

The equation for the motion of the cart is

$x(t)= Acos(\omega t)$

Replacing,

$x(t) = 0.06 cos (2\pi t)$
