Physics

A spring with force constant k = 175 N/m is attached to theground. On top of the spring a 1.30 kg metal pan is attached. Thecombination could be used as a scale, but we are going to dosomething more interesting. We place a metal ball with mass 0.250kg on the tray and then the tray is pushed down 0.150 m below itsequilibrium point and released from rest (take this as t = 0).

a) At what time does the ball lose contact with the metal pan?Carefully consider direction and remember that ω is in rad/s.

b) How high above the equilibrium point is the pan at thistime?

c) How fast is the ball moving at the time it loses contact withthe pan?
