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.
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?
If a pendulum-driven clock gains 5.00 s/day, what fractional change in pendulum length must be made for it to keep perfect time?
The device pictured in the following figure entertains infants while keeping them from wandering. The child bounces in a harness suspended from a door frame by a spring. (a) If the spring stretches 0.250 m while supporting an 8.0-kg child, what is its force constant? (b) What is the time for one complete bounce of this child? (c) What is the child’s maximum velocity if the amplitude of her bounce is 0.200 m?
Reproduce Figures 3-10b and c for the same values given in Example 3.2, but instead let = 0.1 s1 and = rad. How many times does the system cross the x = 0 line before the amplitude finally falls below 102 of its maximum value? Which plot, b or c, is more useful for determining this number? Explain.
Give an example of a simple harmonic oscillator, specifically noting how its frequency is independent of amplitude.
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.
Do you think there is any harmonic motion in the physical world that is not damped harmonic motion? Try to make a list of five examples of undamped harmonic motion and damped harmonic motion. Which list was easier to make?
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?
Calculate the maximum values of the amplitudes of the response functions shown in Figures 3-22 and 3-24. Obtain numerical values for β = 0.2ω0 when a = 2 m/s2, ω0 = 1 rad/s, and t0 = 0.
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?
. A mass of 0.75 kg is attached to a relaxed spring with k = 2.5 N/m. The mass rests on a horizontal, frictionless surface. If the mass is displaced by 0.33 m, what is the magnitude of the force exerted on the mass by spring? If the mass is then released to execute simple harmonic along the surface, with what frequency will it oscillate?
