Q1. A 1.14 kg air-track glider is attached to each end of the track by two coil springs. It takes a horizontal force of 0.500 N to displace the glider to a new equilibrium position, x= 0.130 m.
Find out the effective spring constant of the system.
The glider is now released from rest at x= 0.130 m. Find out the maximum x-acceleration of the glider.
Find out the x-coordinate of the glider at time t= 0.710T, where T is period of the oscillation.
Find out the kinetic energy of the glider at x=0.00 m.
Q2. A car is driven 125.0 km west and then 65.0 km southwest. What is the displacement of the car from the point of origin (magnitude and direction)?
