Answer to Problem 1ASA

The relationship between Hooke’s law and Simple Harmonic Motion is that any particle that obeying Hooke’s law would execute simple harmonic motion

Explanation of Solution

Hooke’s law:

One of the properties of elasticity that takes twice as much force to stretch out a spring twice as far. This linear dependence of the displacement on force of stretching is known as Hooke’s law.

Hooke’s law states that the force required to the stretch of the spring is directly proportional to stretch.

Write the expression for the Hooke’s law.

  F=kx

Here, F is the force required to the stretch of the spring, k is the spring constant, x is the stretch distance.

Simple Harmonic Motion:

The motion of a mass on a spring when it is elastic force of restoring given by the Hooke’s law.

The motion of the particle that subjected to restoring force that vibrate to and fro movement from the point of equilibrium is known as Simple Harmonic Motion.

Conclusion:

The relationship between Hooke’s law and Simple Harmonic Motion is that any particle that obeying Hooke’s law would execute simple harmonic motion

What is simple harmonic oscillation? Express your answer verbally,mathematically, and visually.
Answer the following questions for an object that is hanging on a spring and oscillating up and down with simple harmonic motion. Note: the oscillation is small enough that the spring stays stretched beyond its rest length the entire time. Either at Top & Bottom, Top, Bottom, Equilibruim, or Nowhere Where in the motion is the magnitude of the force from the spring on the object zero? Where in the motion is the magnitude of the net force on the object a maximum? Where in the motion is the magnitude of the force from the spring on the object a maximum? Where in the motion is the magnitude of the net force on the object zero?
