Question
An air-track glider oscillates horizontally on a spring at a frequency of 0.50 Hz. Suppose the glider is pulled to the right of its equilibrium position by 12 cm and then released. Where will the glider be 1.0 s after its release? What is its velocity at this point?

The cart is pulled to the left from its equilibrium position, stretching the spring, and then it is released. a) At what point is the magnitude of the acceleration of the cart at its maximum? When the cart is halfway back to its equilibrium position. When the cart arrives back at its equilibrium position. The instant after it is released. The acceleration is constant. b) The cart passes its equilibrium position and starts compressing the spring as it continues to move to the right.
