Question 19 POST_UTME_IGBINEDION_UNIVERSITY • 2021 • PHYSICS • objective

A block of mass $m$ is attached to a horizontal, massless spring with spring cons\tant $k$. The block is displaced from its equilibrium position by a dis\tance $x_0$ and released from rest. Assuming the motion is simple harmonic, find the period $T$ of the motion in terms of $m$, $k$, and $x_0$.

Answer Options

A. T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Correct Answer B. T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

C. T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{k}{x_0}}

D. T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{x_0}{m}}

Correct Answer

Correct Option:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}
