Question
The device pictured in the figure entertains infants while keeping them from wandering. The child bounces in a harness, with a spring constant k, and is suspended off of the ground.
Part (a) If the spring stretches x1 = 0.26 m from equilibrium while supporting an 7.45-kg child, what is its spring constant, in newtons per meter?
Part (b) What is the time, in seconds, for one complete bounce of this child about the point x1?
Part (c) What is the child’s maximum velocity, in meters per second, if the amplitude of her bounce, relative to x1, is 0.175 m?
