The apparatus above is used to study conservation of mechanical energy. A spring of force constant 40 N/m is heldhorizontal over a horizontal air track, with one end attached to the air track. A light string is attached to the other endof the spring and connects it to a glider of mass m. The glider is pulled to stretch the spring an amount x fromequilibrium and then released. Before reaching the photogate, the glider attains its maximum speed and the stringbecomes slack. The photogate measures the time t that it takes the small block on top of the glider to pass through. Information about the distance x and the speed v of the glider as it passes through the photogate are given below.(a) Assuming no energy is lost, write the equation for conservation of mechanical energy that would apply to thissituation.(b) On the grid below, plot v2 versus x2 . Label the axes, including units and scale.(c)i. Draw a best-fit straight line through the data.180ii. Use the best-fit line to obtain the mass m of the glider.(d) The track is now tilted at an angle ? as shown below. When the spring is unstretched, the center of the glider isa height h above the photogate. The experiment is repeated with a variety of values of x. Assuming no energy is lost, write the new equation for conservation of mechanical energy that wouldapply to this situation starting from position A and ending at position B

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg. a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
