1.
Multiple Choice
What is the purpose of adding a playing card below the mass in the vertical mass spring system?
To stabilize the spring
To make the system more visually appealing
To increase the mass of the system
To help the motion sensor detect the position more easily
2.
Multiple Choice
Which equation represents the position as a function of time in simple harmonic motion?
Position = Amplitude * tan(angular frequency * time + phase constant)
Position = Amplitude * cos(angular frequency * time + phase constant)
Position = Amplitude * exp(angular frequency * time + phase constant)
Position = Amplitude * sin(angular frequency * time + phase constant)
3.
Multiple Choice
Why does the acceleration graph show more error compared to the position graph?
Because acceleration is calculated from velocity, which is derived from position
Because the motion sensor directly measures acceleration
Because acceleration is a more complex quantity
Because the spring constant affects acceleration more
4.
Multiple Choice
How is the period of the mass spring system determined from the data?
By using the spring constant directly
By measuring the time for half a cycle and doubling it
By measuring the time for two complete cycles and dividing by two
By measuring the time for one complete cycle
5.
Multiple Choice
What is the calculated spring constant of the spring in the system?
6.51 newtons per meter
5.51 newtons per meter
8.51 newtons per meter
7.51 newtons per meter
