A spring 1.50 m long with force constant 475 N/m is hung from the ceiling of an elevator, and a block of mass 10.0 kg is attached to the bottom of the spring. (a) By how much is the spring stretched when the block is slowly lowered to its equilibrium point? (b) If the elevator subsequently accelerates upward at 2.00 m/s2, what is the position of the block, taking the equilibrium position found in part (a) as y = 0 and upwards as the positive y-direction. (c) If the elevator cable snaps during the acceleration, describe the subsequent motion of the block relative to the freely falling elevator. What is the amplitude of its motion?
Determine the period of oscillation of a simple pendulum of length L suspended from the ceiling of a car that rolls down an inclined plane of angle (Fig. P16.73). Dissipative forces between the car and the plane are negligible.

The mechanical energy of an undamped block-spring system is constant as kinetic energy transforms to elastic potential energy and vice versa. For comparison, explain what happens to the energy of a damped oscillator in terms of the mechanical, potential, and kinetic energies.
Explain why you expect an object made of a stiff material to vibrate at a higher frequency than a similar object made of a spongy material.
(a) The springs of a pickup truck act like a single spring with a force constant of 1.30105N/m. By how much will the truck he depressed by its maximum load of 1000 kg? (b) If the pickup truck has four identical springs, what is the force constant of each?
Refer to the problem of the two coupled oscillators discussed in Section 12.2. Show that the total energy of the system is constant. (Calculate the kinetic energy of each of the particles and the potential energy stored in each of the three springs, and sum the results.) Notice that the kinetic and potential energy terms that have 12 as a coefficient depend on C1 and 2 but not on C2 or 2. Why is such a result to be expected?
A mass is placed on a frictionless, horizontal table. A spring (k=100N/m) , which can be stretched or compressed, is placed on the table. A 5.00-kg mass is attached to one end of the spring, the other end is anchored to the wall. The equilibrium position is marked at zero. A student moves the mass out to x=4.0 cm and releases it from rest. The mass oscillates in SHM. (a) Determine the equations of motion. (b) Find the position, velocity, and acceleration of the mass at time t=3.00 s.
You stand on the end of a diving board and bounce to set it into oscillation. You find a maximum response in terms of the amplitude of oscillation of the end of the board when you bounce at frequency f. You now move to the middle of the board and repeat the experiment. Is the resonance frequency for forced oscillations at this point (a) higher, (b) lower, or (c) the same as f?
Consider the damped oscillator illustrated in Figure 15.19. The mass of the object is 375 g, the spring constant is 100 N/m, and b = 0.100 N s/m. (a) Over what time interval does the amplitude drop to half its initial value? (b) What If? Over what time interval does the mechanical energy drop to half its initial value? (c) Show that, in general, the fractional rate at which the amplitude decreases in a damped harmonic oscillator is one-half the fractional rate at which the mechanical energy decreases.
A horizontal spring attached to a wall has a force constant of 850 N/m. A block of mass 1.00 kg is attached to the spring and oscillates freely on a horizontal, frictionless surface as in Figure 5.22. The initial goal of this problem is to find the velocity at the equilibrium point after the block is released. (a) What objects constitute the system, and through what forces do they interact? (b) What are the two points of interest? (c) Find the energy stored in the spring when the mass is stretched 6.00 cm from equilibrium and again when the mass passes through equilibrium after being released from rest. (d) Write the conservation of energy equation for this situation and solve it for the speed of the mass as it passes equilibrium. Substitute to obtain a numerical value. (e) What is the speed at the halfway point? Why isnt it half the speed at equilibrium?
It is important for astronauts in space to monitor their body weight. In Earth orbit, a simple scale only reads an apparent weight of zero, so another method is needed. NASA developed the body mass measuring device (BMMD) for Skylab astronauts. The BMMD is a spring-mounted chair that oscillates in simple harmonic motion (Fig. P16.23). From the period of the motion, the mass of the astronaut can be calculated. In a typical system, the chair has a period of oscillation of 0.901 s when empty. The spring constant is 606 N/m. When a certain astronaut sits in the chair, the period of oscillation increases to 2.37 s. Determine the mass of the astronaut. FIGURE P16.23
