An object undergoing simple harmonic motion takes 0.25 sto travel from one point of zero velocity to the next such point. The distance between those points is 36 cm.

(a) Calculate the period of the motion.

(b) Calculate the frequency of the motion.

(c) Calculate the amplitude of the motion.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Period of motion is 0.5sec
  2. Frequency of motion is 0.2 Hz
  3. Amplitude of motion is 18 cm

Step by step solution

01

The given data

i) Time to travel from zero-point velocity to next such point,t=0.25s

ii) Distance between point having zero velocity to the next point,D=36cm

02

Understanding the concept of frequency

We are given the time between points having zero velocity. So, the time of motion is half of that time. Once we find the time of motion, we can use it to find the frequency. Also, as the distance between points having zero velocity is given, the amplitude is half of that distance.

Formula:

The frequency related to the time period of a body,

f=1T 鈥(颈)

03

(a) Calculation of the period of the motion

The period of motion is the time required to complete one cycle. The time between points having zero velocity is already given.

So,thetime period of motion is twicethe timebetween points having zero velocity.

Hence, the time period is given by:

T=0.25sec2T=2t=0.5sec

Hence, the time period is 0.5 sec.

In the displacement versus time graph, points A and B are points having zero velocity.

04

(b) Calculation of frequency of motion

The frequency of motion is calculated using equation (i) as follows:

f =1/(0.5 sec)

=2 Hz

Hence, the value of frequency is 2 Hz

05

(c) Calculation of amplitude of motion

The distance between points having zero velocity is already given, and the amplitude is half of that distance.

So, amplitude is A

A=d2=36cm2=18cm

Hence, the amplitude of motion is 18 cm.

A damped harmonic oscillator consists of a block (m=2.00kg), a spring (k=10.0N/m), and a damping force (F=-bv). Initially, it oscillates with amplitude of25.0cm; because of the damping, the amplitude falls to three-fourths of this initial value at the completion of four oscillations. (a) What is the value of b? (b) How much energy has been 鈥渓ost鈥 during these four oscillations?

A loudspeaker diaphragm is oscillating in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of440Hzand a maximum displacement of0.75mm.

  1. What is the angular frequency?
  2. What is the maximum speed?
  3. What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration?

You are to build the oscillation transfer device shown in Fig.15-27. It consists of two spring鈥揵lock systems hanging from a flexible rod. When the spring of system is stretched and then released, the resulting SHM of system at frequency oscillates the rod. The rod then exerts a driving force on system 2, at the same frequency f1. You can choose from four springs with spring constants k of 1600,1500,1400, and 1200 N/m, and four blocks with masses m of 800,500,400, and 200 kg. Mentally determine which spring should go with which block in each of the two systems to maximize the amplitude of oscillations in system 2.

A spider can tell when its web has captured, say, a fly because the fly鈥檚 thrashing causes the web threads to oscillate. A spider can even determine the size of the fly by the frequency of the oscillations. Assume that a fly oscillates on the capture thread on which it is caught like a block on a spring. What is the ratio of oscillation frequency for a fly with mass mto a fly with mass2.5m?

A massless spring with spring constant 19 N/m hangs vertically. A body of mass 0.20 kgis attached to its free end and then released. Assume that the spring was unstretched before the body was released.

  1. How far below the initial position the body descends?
  2. Find frequency of the resulting SHM.
  3. Find amplitude of the resulting SHM.
