6 SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. 31) An object of mass 6.8 kg is attached to a spring of force constant 1780 N/m. The object is set into simple harmonic motion, with an initial velocity of! o = 3.2 m/s and an initial displacement of x o = 0.14 m. Calculate the maximum velocity the object has during its motion. 31) 32) An object is undergoing simple harmonic motion with frequency f = 9.7 Hz and amplitude A = 0.12 m. At t = 0 the object is at x = 0. How long does it take the object to go from x = 0 to x = m? 32) 33) A large stick is pivoted about one end and allowed to swing back and forth as a physical pendulum. The mass of the stick is 5.20 kg and its center of gravity (found by finding its balance point) is 2.00 m from the pivot. If the period of the swinging stick is 4.10 seconds, what is its moment of inertia, about an axis through the pivot? 33) 34) A 4.50-kg weight hangs from a vertical massless ideal spring. When set in vertical motion, the weight obeys the equation y(t) = (6.20 cm) cos[(2.74 rad/s)t ]. Find: (a) the time for this weight to vibrate one complete cycle, (b) the maximum speed and maximum acceleration of the weight, (c) the total distance the weight moves through in one cycle, (d) the maximum kinetic energy of the weight, and (e) the force constant of the spring. 34) Figure ) In Fig. 13.3, a 0.24-kg ball is suspended from a string 9.79 m long and is pulled slightly to the left. As the ball swings through the lowest part of its motion it encounters a spring attached to the wall. The spring pushes against the ball and eventually the ball is returned to its original starting position. Find the time for one complete cycle of this motion if the spring constant is 21 N/m. (Assume that once the pendulum ball hits the spring there is no effect due to the vertical movement of the ball.) 35) 6
