A mass is attached to the end of a spring and set into oscillation on a horizontal frictionless surface by releasing it from a compressed position. The record of time is started when the oscillating mass first passes through the equilibrium position, and the position of the mass at any time is described by x = (3.9 cm)sin[(9.3 rad/s)πt]. Determine the following.

(a) frequency of the motion Hz.
(b) period of the motion.
(c) amplitude of the motion cm.
(d) first time after t = 0 that the object reaches the position x = 2.6 cm

Answer

given,

x = (3.9 cm)sin[(9.3 rad/s)πt]

general equation of displacement

x = A sin ω t

A is amplitude

now on comparing

c) Amplitude  =3.9 cm

a) frequency =

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

     [tex]f = \dfrac{9.3\pi}{2\pi}[/tex]

           f = 4.65 Hz

b) period of motion

        [tex]T= \dfrac{1}{f}[/tex]

        [tex]T= \dfrac{1}{4.65}[/tex]

        T = 0.215 s

d) time when displacement is equal to x= 2.6 cm

x = (3.9 cm)sin[(9.3 rad/s)πt]

2.6 = (3.9 cm)sin[(9.3 rad/s)πt]

sin[(9.3 rad/s)πt] = 0.667

9.3 π t = 0.73

t = 0.025 s

The frequency of the wave is 4.65 Hz.

The period of the motion is 0.22 s.

The amplitude of the wave is 3.9 cm.

The time when the object reaches 2.6 cm is 0.025 s.

The given parameters;

wave equation, [tex]x = 3.9 cm\ sin[(9.3 \ rad/s)\pi t][/tex]

The frequency of the wave is calculated as follows;

[tex]\omega = 2\pi f\\\\f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} \\\\f = \frac{9.3\pi }{2\pi} \\\\f = 4.65 \ Hz[/tex]

The period of the motion is calculated as follows;

[tex]T = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{4.65} = 0.22 \ s[/tex]

The amplitude of the wave is obtained by comparing the given equation with general wave equation;

Amplitude, A = 3.9 cm

The time when the object reaches 2.6 cm is calculated as follows;

[tex]2.6= 3.9 sin[(9.30 ) \pi t]\\\\\frac{2.6}{3.9} = sin[(9.3)\pi t]\\\\0.667 = sin[(9.3)\pi t]\\\\sin^{-1}(0.667) = 9.3 \pi t \\\\0.73 = 9.3 \pi t\\\\t = \frac{0.73}{9.3 \pi} \\\\t = 0.025 \ s[/tex]
