That would be called VOLT
As we know that KE and PE is same at a given position
so we will have as a function of position given as

also the PE is given as function of position as

now it is given that
KE = PE
now we will have




so the position is 0.707 times of amplitude when KE and PE will be same
Part b)
KE of SHO at x = A/3
we can use the formula

now to find the fraction of kinetic energy



now since total energy is sum of KE and PE
so fraction of PE at the same position will be


Answer:
Explanation:
A ) When gymnast is motionless , he is in equilibrium
T = mg
= 63 x 9.81
= 618.03 N
B )
When gymnast climbs up at a constant rate , he is still in equilibrium ie net force acting on it is zero as acceleration is zero.
T = mg
= 618.03 N
C ) If the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2
Net force on it = T - mg , acting in upward direction
T - mg = m a
T = mg + m a
= m ( g + a )
= 63 ( 9.81 + .6)
= 655.83 N
D ) If the gymnast slides down the rope with a downward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2
Net force acting in downward direction
mg - T = ma
T = m ( g - a )
= 63 x ( 9.81 - .6 )
= 580.23 N
