A particle of mass m kg is attached to one
end A of a model spring OA of natural
length L0 = 0.94 m and
stiffness K N/m. The spring is hung vertically
with the end O fixed and end A attach to the particle, which moves
in a vertical line. The particle’s mass, stiffness and natural
length of the spring are related to the
expression KL0=2mg, where g is
the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. It is observed
that when the particle is at its highest point during the motion,
its distance below O is ½ L0.
Using the law of conservation of mechanical energy, find
the distance, in m, of the particle
below O when it is at its lowest point during the motion. Give your
answer to 3 decimal places.
