A mass of 230 g, hanging on a spring, vertically oscillates with a period of 1 sec (the spring itself has no mass). After adding a mass, m, to the 230 g, we find that the period of oscillation of this mass-spring system becomes 2 sec. The value of m is equal to.

The added mass m= 0.7kg

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the simple harmonic motion of a spiral spring

We know that the period of a simple harmonic motion of a spring is given as

T=2π√m/k

We need to solve first for the spring constant k

Given data

Mass m =230g - - - - - kg

=230/1000= 0.230kg

Period T = 1sec

Substituting we have

1= 2*3.142√0.230/k

1=6.284√0.230/k

1/6.284=√0.230/k

Square both sides

(0.159)²=0.230/k

0.025=0.230/k

k=0.230/0.025

k= 9.2N/m

Now we find that the period of oscillation is 2 after adding mass m to 230g.. Let's solve for the new mass

Using the formula for the period T=2π√m/k

2=2*3.142√m/9.2

2=6.284√m/9.2

2/6.284=√m/9.2

Square both sides

(0.318)²=m/9.2

0.10=m/9.2

m= 0.930kg

Therefore the added mass is

0.930kg-0.230kg

The added mass m= 0.7kg

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
