Answer:

0.07756 m

Explanation:

Given mass of object =0.20 kg

spring constant = 120 n/m

maximum speed = 1.9 m/sec

We have to find the amplitude of the motion

We know that maximum speed of the object when it is in harmonic motion is given by [tex]v_{max}=A\omega[/tex] where A is amplitude and [tex]\omega[/tex] is angular velocity

Angular velocity is given by [tex]\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex]  where k is spring constant and m is mass

So [tex]v_{max}=A\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex]

[tex]A=V_{max}\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}=1.9\times \sqrt{\frac{0.2}{120}}=0.07756 \ m[/tex]

Answer:

The amplitude of the motion is 0.077 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 0.2 kg

Spring constant, K = 120 N/m

Maximum speed of the object, v = 1.9 m/s

We know that, in harmonic motion, the maximum speed of the object is given by :

[tex]v_{max}=A\omega[/tex]

Where

A is the amplitude of the wave

[tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular velocity, [tex]\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{max}=A\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}[/tex]

[tex]A=v_{max}\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{K}}[/tex]

[tex]A=1.9\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2}{120}}[/tex]

A = 0.077 m

So, the amplitude of the motion is 0.077 m. Hence, this is the required solution.
