A block is connected between two springs on a frictionless, horizontally level track. The other end of each spring is respectively anchored to a vertical pin set at opposite ends of the track. If the spring constants are determined to be 3 N/m and 1.6 N/m, and the period of oscillation for the block when slightly displaced from equilibrium point is 0.6s, what is the mass of the block?

14.68 - CP A block with mass M rests on a frictionless surface and is connected to a horizontal spring of force constant k. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall (Fig. P14.68). A second block with mass m rests on top of the first block. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is My. Find the maximum amplitude of oscillation such that the top block will not slip on the bottom block. Figure P14.68 wwww

A block of mass M is connected to a spring of mass m and oscillatesin simple harmonic motion on a horizontal, frictionless track(Figure P15.62). The force constant of the spring is k and theequilibrium length is l. Assume that all portions of the springoscillate in phase and that the velocity of a segment dx isproportional to the distance x from the fixed end; that is, vx =(x/)v. Also, note that the mass of a segment of the spring is dm =(m/)dx.

(a) Find the kinetic energy of the system when the block has aspeed v. (Use M, m, and v as necessary.)

(b) Find the period of oscillation. (Use M, m, and k as necessary.)
