Randall D. Knight β Work and Kinetic Energy: Problem 55
A 40 g mass is attached to one end of a 15-cm-long spring. The other end of the spring is connected to a frictionless pivot on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Spinning the mass around in a circle at 75 rpm causes the spring to stretch to a length of 17 cm. What is the value of the spring constant?
π Solution Approach
Given: 40 g, 75 rpm, 17 cm
