While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it with a hammer and almost instantaneously gives it a speed of 39 cm/s. Part A: What is the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations? Part B: What is the block's speed at the point where x=0.40 A?arrow_forwardYour grandfather clock's pendulum has a length of 0.9930 m. a. If the clock runs slow and loses 23 s per day, how should you adjust the length of the pendulum? Note: due to the precise nature of this problem you must treat the constant g as unknown (that is, do not assume it is equal to exactly 9.80 m/s2). Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value in case of increasing length of the pendulum and negative value in case of decreasing length of the pendulum.arrow_forward
