Question

A particle of 5.5 kg is executing simple harmonic motion along the x-axis under the influence of a spring. The particle moves according to the equation below where x is measured in meters and t in seconds. x = 0.2 cos(2.7t) (a) What is the frequency of the motion? (b) What is the spring constant of the spring? (c) What is the maximum speed of the motion? (d) Suppose we replace the particle by a new particle of 2.0 kg (but we keep the same spring), and suppose that we start the motion with the same amplitude of 0.2 m. What will be the new frequency of the motion? (e) What will be the new maximum speed?
