A meter stick is attached to one end of a rigid rod with negligible mass of length / = 0.707 m. The other end of the light rod is suspended from a pivot point, as shown in the figure below. The entire system is pulled to a small angle and released from rest. It then begins to oscillate. (a) What is the period of oscillation of the system (in s)?

An automobile with a mass of 1000 kg, including passengers, settles 1.0 cm closer to the road for every additional 100 kg of passengers. It is driven with a constant horizontal component of speed 20 km/h over a washboard road with sinusoidal bumps. The amplitude and wavelength of the sine curve are 5.0 cm and 20 cm, respectively. The distance between the front and back wheels is 2.4 m. Find the amplitude of oscillation of the automobile, assuming it moves vertically as an undamped driven harmonic oscillator. Neglect the mass of the wheels and springs and assume that the wheels are always in contact with the road.
A pendulum with a period of 2.00000 s in one location (g=9.80m/s2) is moved to a new location where the period is now 1.99796 s. What is the acceleration due to gravity at its new location?
Give an example of a simple harmonic oscillator, specifically noting how its frequency is independent of amplitude.
Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.00105 kg on springs that have adjustable force constants. Its function is to dampen wind-driven oscillations of the building by oscillating at the same frequency as the building is being driven—the driving force is transferred to the object, which oscillates instead of the entire building. (a) What effective force constant should the springs have to make the object oscillate with a period of 2.00 s? (b) What energy is stored in the springs for a 2.00-m displacement from equilibrium?
If a car has a suspension system with a force constant of 5.00104 N/m , how much energy must the car’s shocks remove to dampen an oscillation starting with a maximum displacement of 0.0750 m?
Some people think a pendulum with a period of 1.00 s can be driven with “mental energy” or psycho kinetically, because its period is the same as an average heartbeat. True or not, what is the length of such a pendulum?
Show that the time rate of change of mechanical energy for a damped, undriven oscillator is given by dE/dt = bv2 and hence is always negative. To do so, differentiate the expression for the mechanical energy of an oscillator, E=12mv2+12kx2, and use Equation 12.28.
Can this analogy of SHM to circular motion be carried out with an object oscillating on a spring vertically hung from the ceiling? Why or why not? If given the choice, would you prefer to use a sine function or a cosine function to model the motion?
In an engine, a piston oscillates with simple harmonic motion so that its position varies according to the expression x=5.00cos(2t+6) where x is in centimeters and t is in seconds. At t = 0, find (a) the position of the piston, (b) its velocity, and (c) its acceleration. Find (d) the period and (e) the amplitude of the motion.
Most harmonic oscillators are damped and, if undriven, eventually come to a stop. Why?
A simple harmonic oscillator has amplitude A and period T. Find the minimum time required for its position to change from x = A to x = A/2 in terms of the period T.
We do not need the analogy in Equation 16.30 to write expressions for the translational displacement of a pendulum bob along the circular arc s(t), translational speed v(t), and translational acceleration a(t). Show that they are given by s(t) = smax cos (smpt + ) v(t) = vmax sin (smpt + ) a(t) = amax cos(smpt + ) respectively, where smax = max with being the length of the pendulum, vmax = smax smp, and amax = smax smp2.
