A spring hangs vertically from a fixed support. A mass is then
attached to the lower end of the spring. When this system undergoes
simple harmonic motion, it has a period of 0.36 s. By how much is
the spring stretched from its initial length when the mass and
spring are hanging motionless?
m=?
Sqrt(m/k) = 0.36/(2 pi)
Sqrt(m/k) = 0.057
Squaring both sides
m/k = 0.00328 ...... (1)
Force, F = mg = kx
x = mg/k
x = 9.8 x 0.00328 = 0.032 m

A mass of 0.200kg is attached to a spring of length 0.500m and is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface. The mass is then pulled so that the spring now stretches to a total length of 0.550m. The mass is then given an initial speed of 5.00 m/s and the mass undergoes simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.200s. Find the spring constant (k) of the spring. Find the amplitude oscillation of the mass. Find the speed of the...
A spring is hung vertically from a fixed support. When an object of mass m is attached to the end of the spring, it stretches by a distance y. When an object of mass of 2m is hung from the spring, it stretches by a distance 2y. A second, identical spring is then attached to the free end of the first spring. If the object of mass 2m is attached to the bottom of the second spring, how far will...
A 2kg mass is suspended vertically from a spring attached to a fixed support. The spring satisfies Hooke's law with a spring constant of k 18 N m1. No damping is present. Gravity acts on the mass with a gravitational constant of g 10 m s2. An external force of R 24 sin (wt) Newton is applied to the mass, directed downwards, where t is the time in seconds since the mass was set in motion and w is a...
A horizontal mass-spring system consists of a 2 kg mass moving on a frictionless surface attached to a spring. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall. The mass is pulled and released. The resultant simple harmonic motion has a period of 5 s and it is observed that the maximum velocity of the mass is 0.3 m/s. a) Calculate the spring constant of the spring. (b) Calculate the amplitude of the motion. Sometime later, when the...
A copper rod (length = 2.5 m, radius = 1.60 10-3 m) hangs down from the ceiling. A 8.8-kg object is attached to the lower end of the rod. The rod acts as a "spring", and the object oscillates vertically with a small amplitude. Ignoring the rod's mass, find the frequency f of the simple harmonic motion. Hz
Part A. A mass hangs vertically from a spring that is attached to the colling, and sites the kinetic energy of the mass is decreasing, what must be true about the mass motion? O The mass must be moving away from the equilibrium position The mass must be moving upward. The mass must be moving downward. The mass must be moving towards the equilibrium position

A spring is hung vertically, and an object of mass m1= 1 kg attached at lower end stretches the spring to position x1= 20 cm. When the mass increases to m2 =1.5 kg the spring stretches to new position x2 = 33 cm. What is the period of the spring-mass system when a mass of 2 kg attached to it? Hint, use x1, x2 , m1 ,m2 to find spring constant k and use the value of k to find the period of...
