A 2.5-kg object hanging from a vertical spring of force constant 600 N/m oscillates with an amplitude
Question:
A 2.5-kg object hanging from a vertical spring of force constant 600 N/m oscillates with an amplitude of 3 cm. When the object is at its maximum downward displacement, find
(a) The total energy of the system,
(b) The gravitational potential energy, and
(c) The potential energy in the spring.
(d) What is the maximum kinetic energy of the object? Choose U = 0 when the object is at equilibrium.
Step by Step Answer:
We can set U grav 0 by selecting our coordinate origin to be at y 0 where y0 is ...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
