Mass on a Spring Frequency and Period Physics Homework?
Mass on a Spring Frequency and Period Physics Homework?
A 50 g mass is attached to a massless spring and allowed to oscillate around an equilibrium according to:
y(t) = 1.2*sin( 3.1415*t ) where y is measured in meters and t in seconds.
So far I've figure out:
Amplitude = 1.2 m
Spring constant = 0.49345 N/m
Total Energy = 0.355284 J
Kinetic Energy = 0.355284 J
Velocity of the mass = 3.76 m/s
I can't solve:
What is the frequency of this motion? _____________ Hz
What is the period of the motion? ____________ s
