Question

A 0.500 kg mass is oscillating on a

spring with k = 330 N/m. The total
energy of its oscillation is 3.24 J.
What is the maximum speed of
the mass?
(Unit = m/s)​

Answer 1

3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: E = kA2/2 ⇒

A = √(2E/k) = √[2(3.24)/330] m = ? m

Explanation: Equate the elastic potential energy at the amplitude to the total energy of the mass. The answer will not depend on the mass.
