Concept explainers
a.
To graph: Graph the function using graphing utility.
a.
Answer to Problem 68E
Explanation of Solution
Given: A ball is bobbing up and down on the end of a spring has a maximum displacement of
Graph:
By using the graphing utility the below graph is the graphical representation of the function
Thus we can use a graphical utility to graph a function.
b.
To find: The period of oscillation.
b.
Answer to Problem 68E
The period of oscillation is
Explanation of Solution
Given: A ball is bobbing up and down on the end of a spring has a maximum displacement of
Calculation:
From the given information,
Therefore the period is,
Thus we can find the period of oscillation.
c.
The first time the ball passes the point of equilibrium
c.
Answer to Problem 68E
The first time the ball passes the point of equilibrium when
Explanation of Solution
Given: A ball is bobbing up and down on the end of a spring has a maximum displacement of
Calculation:
From the given information,
The equilibrium occurs when the angle of the
Thus we can determine the first time the ball passes the point of equilibirium.
