Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the object, m = 350 g = 0.35 kg
Spring constant of the spring, k = 5.2 N/m
Amplitude of the oscillation, A = 10 cm = 0.1 m
Frequency of a spring mass system is given by :
[tex]f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{5.2}{0.35}} \\\\f=0.613\ Hz[/tex]
Time period:
[tex]T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{0.613}\\\\T=1.63\ s[/tex]
Maximum velocity in the spring is given by :
[tex]v=A\omega[/tex]
[tex]v=A\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\v=0.1\times \sqrt{\dfrac{5.2}{0.35}} \\\\v=0.38\ m/s[/tex]
The maximum force acting in the spring is :
[tex]F=-kx\\\\F=kA\\\\F=5.2\times 0.1\\\\F=0.52\ N[/tex]
Hence, this is the required solution.
