Period, Frequency, Amplitude, and Maximum Speed
1/freqAn air-track glider attached to a spring oscillates between the 15.0 mark and the 55.0 cm mark on the track. The glider completes 15.0 oscillations in 37.0 . What are the (a) period = 1/frequency = 1/.405 = 2.5 seconds (b) frequency = oscillations / time = 15/37= .41 Hz (c) amplitude amplitude = 1/2 of the difference of oscillation marks = 1/2(55-15) = 20cm (d)…
