... 5) A thin, flexible metal plate attached at one end to a platform, as shown above, can be used to measure mass. When the free end of the plate is pulled down and released, it vibrates in simple harmonic motion with a period that depends on the mass attached to the plate. To calibrate the force const ...

... 6. Free-Fall; Roger tosses a ball straight upward at speed 32 m/s. Calculate the maximum height of the ball. Calculate the time in seconds that it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height. (Note: at the highest point velocity = 0 m/s, accl. = 9.8 m/s2 acting downward) 7. Also, the hints at end ...

A critical difference between the two systems is that the period of a simple pendulum involves g whereas the period of the motion of a mass on the end of a spring does not. A mass on ...
