Exam 14: Oscillations

Both a mass-spring system and a simple pendulum have a period of 1 s. Both are taken to the moon in a lunar landing module. While they are inside the module on the surface of the moon,

A body on a spring is vibrating in simple harmonic motion about an equilibrium position indicated by the dashed line. The figure above that shows the body with maximum acceleration is

A rocket ship is propelled vertically up with an acceleration of g in a uniform gravitational field. A pendulum of length 1.0 m would have a period of

A 0.454-kg block starts from rest and slides 3.05 m down a frictionless plane inclined at 53º to the horizontal. At the bottom it slides 9.14 m over a horizontal frictionless plane before compressing a spring (k = 14.7 N/m) a distance x and coming momentarily to rest. The value of x is approximately

A simple way to test if a device can withstand high "g-force" is to attach the device to a vibrating platform. Suppose a device has to withstand up to 5g's, and the amplitude of the oscillation is 5 cm, the frequency of the vibration should be

The graph is a plot of the period of a physical pendulum versus the distance from the pivot point to the center of mass. If the physical pendulum is suspended 44 cm from the center of mass, a simple pendulum that would have the same period would have a length of approximately
