Answer:
Position of x at t = 1.44s is - 0.0817 m
Explanation:
For the harmonic motion of the spring, the displacement is given by
x = A cos wt
A is the amplitude of displacement = 0.14 m
t = time = 1.44 s
w = angular frequency and for a spring's motion, it is given by
w = √(k/m)
k = spring's stiffness = 6.5 N/m
m = 2.8 kg
w = √(6.5/2.8) = 1.524 rad/s
x = 0.14 cos (1.524 × 1.44) = 0.14 cos 2.194 = 0.14 × - 0.5836 = - 0.0817 m
