uhmm... for the second problem i used the equation:
ma = kx
wherein a is centripetal acceleration
i used 0.2 as the r and then 0.01 as the x to get the k then i equated the k from the second equation that i made which is:
mg = kx(sub2)
I'm not really sure about it
I already solved the first problem but I still can't figure the second one out. I tried equating the constant of spring since they would be equal but it give me 2.18x10^-3 so its a little off
[SOLVED] Simple Harmonic Motion
I'm really having a hard time solving these two problems.
1. Objects of equal mass are oscillating up and down in simple harmonic motion on two different vertical springs. The spring constant of spring 1 is 174 N/m. The motion of the object on spring 1 has twice...
