A mass m = 0.330 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 1400 N/m and is free to oscillate in a horizontal direction (as in the figure). The mass is pulled, stretching the spring. When the mass is released, the system oscillates. Assume that friction and air resistance can be ignored. What is the angular frequency of this oscillation? ω = rad/s What is the simple frequency of this oscillation? f = Hz What is the period of the oscillation? T = s How many cycles will the system have undergone in a total time of 50 seconds? N =

A mass of m = 4 kg is attached to a massless spring of spring constant k = 500 N/m compressed by d = 0.3 m as shown in the figure at right. This spring-mass system is on a table such that the potential energy of the spring is equal to the gravitational potential energy of the mass measured relative to the Ug = 0 reference level shown in the figure. The y coordinate (h) of the mass is: A). 0.3 m B). 0.6 m C). 1.2 m D). 0.9 m

A mass-less spring having a spring constant k = 300 N/m, and length 30.0 cm is laid on a horizontal table. Its left end is rigidly attached to a fixed wall. The other end has a point mass of 0.6 kg attached to it. At equilibrium, this mass is at position shown as MP. The mass (and spring) is pulled to the right, so that the mass is now at point A which is 9 cm from the mean position (MP), and held there. The mass is then released. It accelerates towards the mean position, and then goes past it, and compresses the spring. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the mass and the table is 0.15 . Calculate the speed of the mass as it crosses the point marked 'B', which is 4 cm from the mean position. Write your answer in m/s.
