0.185kg A 185 g object is attached to a spring that has a force constant of 75.5 N/m. The object is pulled 8.25 cm to the right of equilibrium and released from rest to slide on a horizontal, frictionless table. long A) How will it take the object to return to its original position, 8.25 cm to the right of equilibrium? B) What is the maximum speed max of the object? C) Find the locations of the object when its velocity is one-third of the maximum speed. Treat the equilibrium position as zero, positions to the right as positive, and positions to the left as negative. xrnig
Simple harmonic motion
Simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion in which an object undergoes oscillatory motion. The restoring force exerted by the object exhibiting SHM is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. The force is directed towards the mean position. We see many examples of SHM around us, common ones are the motion of a pendulum, spring and vibration of strings in musical instruments, and so on.
Simple Pendulum
A simple pendulum comprises a heavy mass (called bob) attached to one end of the weightless and flexible string.
Oscillation
In Physics, oscillation means a repetitive motion that happens in a variation with respect to time. There is usually a central value, where the object would be at rest. Additionally, there are two or more positions between which the repetitive motion takes place. In mathematics, oscillations can also be described as vibrations. The most common examples of oscillation that is seen in daily lives include the alternating current (AC) or the motion of a moving pendulum.
