An object of mass 0.40 kg, hanging from a spring with a spring constant of 8.0 N/m, is set into an up-and-down simple harmonic motion. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the object when it is at its maximum displacement of 0.10 m?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a = 2 m/s2

Explanation:

we know from newtons 2nd law

F = ma.

we also know that from hookes law we have

F = kx

equate both value of force to get value of acceleration

kx = ma,

where,

k is spring constant = 8.0 N/m

x is maximum displacement  0.10 m

m is mass of object 0.40 kg

a = \frac{kx}{m}

     = \frac{8 *0 .10}{0.40}

a = 2 m/s2
