A 100-kg glider attached to a spring with a force constant


A 1.00-kg glider attached to a spring with a force constant 16.0 N/m oscillates on a frictionless, horizontal air track. At t = 0, the glider is released from rest at x = -2.50 cm (that is, the spring is compressed by 2.50 cm).

(a) Find the period of the glider's motion (s)

(b) Find the maximum values of its speed (m/s) and acceleration (m/s^2).

(c) Find the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time. (Where position is in m, velocity is in m/s, acceleration is in m/s2, and t is in s. Use the following as necessary: t.)

x(t) =

v(t) =

a(t) =
