Answer:

A. [tex]\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}[/tex]

B. [tex]f=1.7685\ Hz[/tex]

C. [tex]T=0.5654\ s[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

  • spring constant, [tex]k=56.8\ N.m^{-1}[/tex]
  • mass attached, [tex]m=0.46\ kg[/tex]

A)

for a spring-mass system the frequency is given as:

[tex]\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

[tex]\omega=\sqrt{\frac{56.8}{0.46}}[/tex]

[tex]\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}[/tex]

B)

frequency is given as:

[tex]f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}[/tex]

[tex]f=\frac{11.1121}{2\pi}[/tex]

[tex]f=1.7685\ Hz[/tex]

C)

Time period of a simple harmonic motion is given as:

[tex]T=\frac{1}{f}[/tex]

[tex]T=0.5654\ s[/tex]
