Question

I think I understand the concept (I’d appreciate if you could check these answers too), but I have a hard time with ratios. It doesn’t ask if T changes in a linear, quadratic, etc. way as m changes, but this is something I want to understand. I hope what I’m asking makes sense Suppose you were to measure the period of a 200 g mass hanging vertically from a initially displacing it 4 cm from its resting position. For each situation listed below, predict whether the measured period of oscillation would increase, decrease, or remain the same as a result. Explain your reasoning. 4. The 200 g mass is initially displaced by an amount greater than 4 cm before it is released. a. displacenent Period does NoT depend on amp litude, so the scillation coil) remain the Same if it is displaced by a areater h b. The 200 gmass is replaced with a larger mass. (The initial displacement of 4 cm is kept eight the same.) Period IS dependent on mass, and wi increase as mass increases Pre Lab-Lab 2

Explanation / Answer

Yes, you have understood the concept very well. Your answers are correct.

In the first question, time period will remain the same as it does not depend upon the amplitude.

And in the second one, time period will increase, as it is proportional to the square root of the mass attached to the spring.
