You are abducted by aliens and find yourself locked in a large room on some strange planet. To pass the time, you decide to do some experiments using a ball-and-chain that you find on the floor. You make the following estimates: m(BALL) = 7 kg ,
m(CHAIN) = 0.5 kg , and l(CHAIN) = 2 m .
(a) When you hold the free end of the chain above your head and allow the ball to swing like a pendulum, you use your wristwatch to measure the period as T = 4 s . What is the acceleration due to gravity on this planet?(b) If the ball accidentally hits a wall, how long does it take for this jolt in the chain to travel up to your hand?

Hooke's law states that the force (F, in newtons) applied to a spring is equal to the stiffness of the spring (k, in newtons per meter) times the displacement {x, in meters): F= kx. ;Chapter 10, Problem 161CA, Refer to the Worksheet shown, set up to calculate the displacement of a spring. Hooke's law states Cell A3 contains a data validation list of springs. The stiffness (cell 83) and maximum displacement (cell C3) values are found using a VLOOKUP function linked to the table shown at the right side of the worksheet. These data are then used to determine the displacement of the spring at various mass values.
