A mass of 0.12 kg is attached to a spring and set into oscillation on a horizontal frictionless surface. The simple harmonic motion of the mass is described by
x(t) = (0.42 m)cos[(14 rad/s)t].
Determine the following.
(a) amplitude of oscillation for the oscillating mass
(b) force constant for the spring
(c) position of the mass after it has been oscillating for one half
a period
(d) position of the mass one-third of a period after it has been
released
m
(e) time it takes the mass to get to the position
x = −0.10 m after it has been released
