THIS IS A PRACTICE ASSESSMENT. Show formulas, substitutions, answers (in spaces provided) and units!
A 2.0-kg mass is attached to a horizontal spring having a spring constant of 0.50 Nm -1. If set in oscillation
the time for a single cycle is 12.6 s.
1. The mass is pulled 4.0 cm in the positive x-direction
before release, as shown. What are the amplitude,
period, and frequency of the oscillation?
