An air-track glider attached to a spring oscillates between the 10 cm mark and the 60 cm mark on the track. The glider completes 10 oscillations in 33 s. What are the (a) period, (b) frequency, (c) amplitude, and (d) maximum speed of the glider

Sagot :

Answer:

a) Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) Period

Time Period T = Time taken for one oscillation

T = 33s / 10 = 3.3 seconds

Therefore, Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) Frequency

we know that frequency is the inverse of time period

so;

Frequency f = 1/T = 1 / 3.3 s

Frequency f = 0.3030 Hz

Therefore, The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude

amplitude A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]( 60 cm - 10 cm )

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 50 cm

A = 25 cm

A = 0.25 m

Therefore, amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed of the glider

maximum speed [tex]V_{max}[/tex] = ωA

and ω = 2π/T

so maximum speed [tex]V_{max}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2\pi }{T}[/tex]A

so we substitute

so maximum speed [tex]V_{max}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2\pi }{3.3}[/tex] × 0.25 m

so maximum speed [tex]V_{max}[/tex] = 0.476 m/s

Therefore, maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

The time period is 3.3 s, frequency is 0.303 Hz, amplitude is 0.25 m, and maximum speed is 0.47575 m/s.

Based on the given information,

• The air-track glider connected with a spring oscillates between the 10 cm mark and the 60 cm mark.  

• In 33 seconds, the glider completes 10 oscillations.  

There is a need to find, the period, frequency, amplitude, and maximum speed of the glider.

a) Time period (T) for one oscillation is,

[tex]\frac{33s}{10} = 3.3 s[/tex]

b) The frequency (f) is the reciprocal of the time period,

[tex]f = \frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{3.3S} = 0.303 Hz[/tex]

c) The amplitude (A) is,

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} (60 cm-10cm) = 25cm[/tex]

[tex]A = 0.25 m[/tex]

d) Maximum speed of the glider is,

[tex]Vmax = \frac{2\pi }{T} (0.25 m)[/tex]

[tex]Vmax = 0.47575 m/s[/tex]

Thus,  time period is 3.3 s, frequency is 0.303 Hz, amplitude is 0.25 m, and maximum speed is 0.47575 m/s.
