Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A simple harmonic oscillator has a mass of 2 kg and a spring constant of 200 N/m. What is the angular frequency of the oscillator?
  • Step 1: Identify the formula for angular frequency, which is ω = √(k/m).
  • Step 2: Note the values given: the spring constant k is 200 N/m and the mass m is 2 kg.
  • Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula: ω = √(200/2).
  • Step 4: Calculate the value inside the square root: 200 divided by 2 equals 100.
  • Step 5: Take the square root of 100, which is 10.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the angular frequency ω is 10 rad/s.
  • Simple Harmonic Motion – The study of oscillatory motion where the restoring force is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium.
  • Angular Frequency – A measure of how quickly an object oscillates, calculated using the formula ω = √(k/m).
  • Spring Constant – A measure of the stiffness of a spring, represented by k in Hooke's law.
