A 0.70-kg lump of metal is attached to a string of negligible mass. The other end of the string is held in place. The lump of metal is released from rest when the string is 5 degrees from vertical. It is observed that the string is vertical after 0.18 seconds.

  1. Determine the period of the oscillations.

  2. Determine the angular frequency of the oscillations.

  3. Determine the length of the string.

  4. What happens to the period of oscillation if the mass of the metal is doubled? Does it measurably increase, decrease, or remain the same?

  5. What happens to the period of oscillation if the release angle is doubled to 10 degrees? Does it measurably increase, decrease, or remain the same?

  6. What happens to the period of oscillation if the angle is increased to 90 degrees? Does it measurably increase, decrease, or remain the same?

A 0.37 kg ball is attached to a 0.71 m long string. The other end of the string is then attached to the ceiling in order to create a pendulum. It is then drawn back such that the string makes an angle of 50 degrees relative to the ceiling and then released from rest. How fast is the pendulum traveling when the string makes an angle of 20 degrees relative to the vertical

The figure shows a thin rod, of length L = 2.10 m and negligible mass, that can pivot about one end to rotate in a vertical circle. A heavy ball of mass m = 7.10 kg is attached to the other end. The rod is pulled aside to angle θ0 = 5.3° and released with initial velocity v→0 = 0. (a) What is the speed of the ball at the lowest point? (b) Does the speed increase, decrease, or remain...

A string is attached to a wall while the other end of the string is in your hand.  You make waves on the string by pumping your hand up and down.  If you double the tension in the string while maintaining the same frequency of motion, will the wavelength of the wave on the string increase, decrease, or remain the same? Explain.

A block of mass 18 kg and a block of mass 6 kg are attached by a massless string that does not stretch. The string is passed over a massless, frictionless pulley. The blocks are released. The blocks slide against vertical walls as they move, which results in a frictional force of 25N acting on the heavier block and a frictional force of 14N acting on the lighter block. (a) Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of each block. __________________________m/s2...

A 0.25 kg mass is attached to the end of a spring connected horizontally to a wall. The mass is displaced 8.5 cm, then released, and it undergoes SHM. The spring constant is 1.4 x 10^2 N/m. Assume the amplitude of oscillation remains constant. a.) How far does the mass move in the first five cycles? b.) Compare the phase after 2.5 cycles with the initial phase. c.) What is the period of oscillation of the mass-spring system?

A hanging weight, with a mass of m1 = 0.370 kg, is attached by a string to a block with mass m2 = 0.850 kg as shown in the figure below. The string goes over a pulley with a mass of M = 0.350 kg. The pulley can be modeled as a hollow cylinder with an inner radius of R1 = 0.0200 m, and an outer radius of R2 = 0.0300 m; the mass of the spokes is negligible. As...
