A1.50kg mass on a spring has a displacement as a function of time given by the equation: x(t) = (7.40cm)cos[(4.16s-1)t – 2.42]. find, a) the time for one complete vibration; b) the force constant of the spring; c) the maximum speed of the mass; d) the maximum force on the mass; e) at t= 1.00s, find the mass is a. the position, b. the speed, c. the acceleration d. the force on the mass

Solution:

we have given the equation of motion is x(t)=8sint [where t in seconds and x in centimeter]

Position, velocity and acceleration are all based on the equation of motion.

The equation represents the position.  The first derivative gives the velocity and the 2nd derivative gives the acceleration.

x(t)=8sint

x'(t)=8cost

x"(t)=-8sint

now at time t=2pi/3,

position, x(t)=8sin(2pi/3)=4*squart(3)cm.

velocity, x'(t)=8cos(2pi/3)==4cm/s

acceleration, x"(t)==8sin(2pi/3)=-4cm/s^2

so at present the direction is in y-axis.

the simple machine has three main features. they are:

fulcrum is the center point or pivot point of the machine. effort is input force/ applied force. load is external force/ output.

the keisha 's machine labels are

x : load

y: fulcrum

z: lever
