A mass of 50.00g hangs from a 7.00cm-long spring that is rigidly attached to a ceiling. The mass is pulled down slightly, let go, and is observed to make 8 round trips (up and back down) in 14.00s. What is the stiffness constant for this spring

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.645 N/M

Explanation:

Given

Mass=50.00g

We have to convert into the kg

So Mass =0.050 Kg

[tex]Time\ = \frac{14}{8}\ = 1.75\ sec[/tex]

We know that

[tex]T\ =2\ PI\sqrt{\frac{M}{K} }[/tex]........................Eq(1)

Where T= time

and M= Mass

K= Stiffness constant

On squaring both side we get

[tex]K=\frac{4\pi^{2} M}{T^{2} }[/tex]....Eq(2)

Putting the value of M ,T and π in Eq(2) we get

K=0.645 N/M
