Two springs of force constants k1 and k2 are attached to a block of mass m and to fixed supports as shown in Fig. 2. The table surface is frictionless. (a) If the block is displaced from its equilibrium position and is then released, show that its motion will be simple harmonic with angular frequency w = √(k1 + k2)/m. (b) Suppose the system is now submersed in a liquid with damping coefficient b , what is the condition that the block will return to itsequilibrium position without oscillation?Sketch a graph to show the behavior of the system in this case.
Explain the term amplitude as it relates to the graph of asinusoidal function.
The equation of motion for a damped harmonic oscillator is s(t) = Ae^(−kt) sin(ωt + δ),where A, k, ω, δ are constants. (This represents, for example, the position of springrelative to its rest position if it is restricted from freely oscillating as it normally would).(a) Find the velocity of the oscillator at any time t.(b) At what time(s) is the oscillator stopped?
Write the equations that describe the simple harmonic motion of a particle moving uniformly around a circle of radius8units, with linear speed 3units per second.
If left to freely oscillate, a system will vibrate at a natural frequency that depends on the system itself, not on the initial push or stimulus that we impart. Based on this reasoning, consider a beam made out of iron and an otherwise identical beam made out of aluminum. How should the natural frequency of vibration of these two beams compare? (Hint: look at the relative mass of these two elements on the periodic table and imagine that the atoms are connected by springs.)
Consider a simple harmonic oscillator consisting of a one kilogram mass m' on a spring with spring/forceconstant k and length L'.

Suppose that a mass is initially at X = Xo with an initial velocity Vo. Show that the resulting motion is the sum of two oscillations, one corresponding to the mass initially at rest at X = Xo and the other corresponding to the mass initially at the equilibrium position with velocity Vo. What is the amplitude of the total oscillation?
