A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block of mass 2.00 kg attached to a spring of spring constant 100 N/m. When t = 1.00 s, the position and velocity of the block are x = 0.129 m and v = 3.415 m/s respectively.
a) What is the amplitude of oscillations?
b) What were the position and velocity of the mass at time t = 0?
given that
m = 2 kg
k = 100 N/m
t = 1 s
x = 0.129 m
v = 3.415 m/s
from the equation of simple harmonic motion
x = A*sin(w*t + phi) ......eq1
A = x/sin(w*t + phi) .......eq2
v = w*A*cos(w*t + phi) ........eq3
where , phi = phase shift
we know that
w = sqrt(k/m) =sqrt (100 / 2) = 7.07 rad/s
put the value of A from eq2 into eq3
v = w * x/sin(w*t + phi) * cos(w*t + phi)
from trignometry
cos(theta) / sin(theta) = cot(theta) = 1/tan(theta)
v = w * x / tan(w*t + phi)
tan(w*t + phi) = w*x/v
w*t + phi = tan-(w*x/v)
phi = tan-(w*x/v) - w*t
phi = tan-(7.07 *0.129/3.415) - 7.07*1
phi = -6.82 rad
we know that, 2*pi rad = 6.28
but the angle is more than 6.28 rad so actual phi = -6.81 + 6.28 = -0.53 rad
from eq2
A = x/sin(w*t + phi)
A = 0.129 / sin(7.07*1 - 0.53)
A = 0.50 m
(b)
x = A*sin(w*t + phi)
at t=o
x = 0.50*sin(0-0.53)
x = -0.252 m
(c)
at t = 0
v = w * A*cos(w*t + phi)
v = 7.07*0.50 *cos(0-0.53)
v = 3.05 m/s
