Question

A 300-g object is attached to a spring that has a force constant of 80 N/m. The object is pulled 8 cm to the right of equilibrium and released from rest to slide on a horizontal frictionless table. (a) Calculate the maximum speed of the object. An object (m0.300 kg) attached to a spring (k 80 N/m) is pulled A 0.08 m to the right of equilibrium and released from rest. It begins to oscillate on a horizontal, frictionless table. The general equation for the motion of the object as a function of time is x(t)-A cos(ot), as a function of time is equal to the first derivative of x(t) with respect to time; the maximum speed is the amplitude of this function. m/s (b) Find the location of the object when its velocity is one-third of the maximum speed heading toward the right. (The +x direction is to the right. Indicate the direction The velocity of the object with the sign of your answer.)
