A 2 Kg object is attached to a string and placed on a frictionless,horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 20 N is required to holdthe object at rest when it is pulled 0.2 m from its equilibriumposition (the origin of the X axis). The object is now releasedfrom rest from this stretched position, and it subsequentlyundergoes simple harmonic oscillations. Find...
a) The force constant of the spring
b) The frequency of the oscillations
c) The maximum speed of the object
d) Where does this maximum speed occur?
e) Find the maximum acceleration of the object
f) Where does the maximum acceleration occur?
g) Find the total energy of theoscillating system
h) Find the speed and...
i) Acceleration of the object when its position is equal toone-third the maximum value
