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

Review. A lobstermans buoy is a solid wooden cylinder of radius r and mass M. It is weighted at one end so that it floats upright in calm seawater, having density . A passing shark tugs on the slack rope mooring the buoy to a lobster trap, pulling the buoy down a distance x from its equilibrium position and releasing it. (a) Show that the buoy will execute simple harmonic motion if the resistive effects of the water are ignored. (b) Determine the period of the oscillations.
A 90.0kg skydiver hanging from a parachute bounces up and down with a period of 1.50 s. What is the new period of oscillation when a second skydiver, whose mass is 60.0 kg, hangs from the legs of the first, as seen in Figure 16.47. Figure 16.4? The oscillations of one Skydiver are about to be affected by a second skydiver. (credit: U.S. Army, www.army.mil)
