Questions:
•
What does the starting/initial position of the 50-g mass represent?
The starting/initial position of the 50-g mass is where we determine whether an
oscillation has been made. Once the spring attached to the 50-g mass reaches its
starting/initial position, a single oscillation has been made.
So, to time the 10 complete oscillations, it is pertinent to take the into account the
starting/initial position.
•
What happens to the length of the path travelled by the 50-g mass when the
starting position is increased from 20 cm to 40 cm? What happens to its speed?
The length of the pa...
