As we've seen, astronauts measure their mass by measuring theperiod of oscillation when sitting in a chair connected to aspring. The Body Mass Measurement Device on Skylab, a 1970s spacestation, had a spring constant of 606 N/m. The empty chairoscillated with a period of 0.848 s.
What is the mass of an astronaut who oscillates with a period of2.26 s when sitting in the chair?
