1. It takes 365.

2 days for the Earth to complete one revolution around

the sun. Calculate (a) period, (b) frequency, and (c) angular frequency

of Earth as it revolves around the sun.

a) T = 365.25 days x 24 hrs. x 3600s

T = 31557600s

f=
31557600

f = 3.16881 x 10 -8 Hz

c) 𝜔 = 2𝜋𝑓

𝜔 = 2𝜋(3.16881𝑥10−8 )
𝜔 = 1.99102 𝑥10−7 𝑟𝑎𝑑/𝑠

2. A vertical spring has a force constant of 125 N/m. By how much will

the spring be compressed if a mass 0.525 kg is placed on top of it?

Given:

k = 125N/m

m = 0.525 kg

Solution:

k = fx,
