A simple harmonic oscillator consists of a block of mass 3.90 kg attached to a spring of spring constant 120 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.
(a) What is the amplitude of the oscillations?
----- m
(b) What was the position of the mass at t = 0 s?
x = ----- m
(c) What was the velocity of the mass at t = 0 s?
v = ----- m/s
given
m = 3.9 kg
k = 120 N/m
angular frequency, w = sqrt(k/m) = sqrt(120/3.9) = 5.547 rad/s
a) let A is the amplitude of motion.
use, (1/2)*k*A^2 + (1/2)*k*x^2 + (1/2)*m*v^2
A = sqrt(x^2 + m*v^2/k)
= sqrt(0.129^2 + 3.9*3.415^2/120)
= 0.629 m
b) use, x = A*cos(w*t + phi) (here phi is phase constant)
at t = 1s, x = 0.129 m
0.129 = 0.629*cos(5.547*1 + phi)
0.129/0.629 = cos(5.547 + phi)
0.205 = cos(5.547 + phi)
cos^-1(0.205) = 5.547 + phi
1.364 = 5.547 + phi
==> phi = (2*pi + 1.364) - 5.547
= 2.1 rad
so, at t = 0s,
x = A*cos(w*t + phi)
= 0.629*cos( 0 + 2.1)
= 0.318 m
c) v = -A*w*sin(w*t + phi)
at t = 0s,
v = -0.629*5.547*sin(2.1)
= 3.01 m/s
