A Later in this book, you will study oscillating motion. Such motion is repetitive. Each complete repetition is called a cycle, and the frequency f is the number of cycles per unit time. The SI unit of frequency is s1. For a block oscillating at the end of a spring, the frequency depends on the mass m of the block, and the stiffness (spring constant) k of the spring. The dimensions of k are mass per time squared. Use dimensional analysis to find the mathematical dependence of f on k and m.
A spring has a length of 0.200 m when a 0.300kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.750 m when a 1.95-kg mass hangs from it. (a) What is the force constant of the spring? (b) What is The unloaded length of the spring?
You are looking at a small, leafy tree. You do not notice any breeze, and most of the leaves on the tree are motionless. One leaf however, is fluttering hack and forth wildly. After a while, that leaf stops moving and you notice a different leaf moving much more than all the others. Explain what could cause the large motion of one particular leaf.
Review. A block of mass M hangs from a rubber cord. The block is supported so that the cord is not stretched. The unstretched length of the cord is and its mass is m, much less than M. The "spring constant for the cord is k. The block is released and stops momentarily at the lowest point. (a) Determine the tension in the string when the block is at this lowest point. (b) What is the length of the cord in this "stretched" position? (c) If the block is held in this lowest position, find the speed of a transverse wave in the cord.

3. The length of the string is L The mass of the ball attached to it is M The spring constant is k The amount of energy lost during the swing đue to friction is U The acceleration due to gravity is g The angle the string makes with the vertical is initially 8 When the string compresses the spring, the string will be perfectly vertical a. In terms of the variables L, M, k, U, 6 and g write an expression for the maximum amount by which the spring will be compressed when the ball is released and is then in contact with it. i.e. Write: Ax = (where this right side of the equation will have all of those variables in some form) b.
