Serway & Jewett β€” Oscillatory Motion: Problem 39

A ball of mass $m$ is connected to two rubber bands of length $L$, each under tension $T$ as shown in Figure P15.39. The ball is displaced by a small distance $y$ perpendicular to the length of the rubber bands. Assuming the tension does not change, show that (a) the restoring force is $-(2T/L)y$ and (b) the system exhibits simple harmonic motion with an angular frequency $\omega = \sqrt{2T/mL}$.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Find: (a) the restoring force is $-; (b) the system exhibits simple harmonic motion with an angular f
