Assume that the string breaks while the mass (m) was in uniform circular motion. If the spring is also suddenly unhooked from the mass at the same instant that the string breaks, what will happen to the mass?



[Ques. 2] A cubical gaussian surface is bisected by a large sheet of charge, parallel to its top and bottom faces. No other charges are nearby. Over how many of the cubes faces is the electric field zero?
  1.0
  2.2
  3.4
  4.6



[Ques. 3] What would happen if you hung so much mass on the spring that it exceeded the spring's elastic limit?



[Ques. 4] A cubical gaussian surface surrounds a long, straight, charged filament that passes perpendicularly through two opposite faces. No other charges are nearby. Through how many of the cubes faces is the electric flux zero?
  1.0
  2.2
  3.4
  4.6



[Ques. 5] Why must you be careful in how you start the timing when you measure the time increments for multiple oscillations of a vibrating system?



[Ques. 6] A cubical gaussian surface surrounds a long, straight, charged filament that passes perpendicularly through two opposite faces. No other charges are nearby. Over how many of the cubes faces is the electric field zero?
  1.0
  2.2
  3.4
  4.6



[Ques. 7] How is the mass hung on the spring related to the force that actually stretches the spring?



[Ques. 8] A particle with charge q is located inside a cubical gaussian surface. No other charges are nearby. If the particle can be moved to any point within the cube, what maximum value can the flux through one face approach?
  1. 0
  2. q/20
  3. q/6 0
  4. q/8 0
  5. depends on the size of the cube



[Ques. 9] Explain two methods that could be used to find the spring constant of a spring experimentally.

1)  The mass would fly off tangent to the circle of rotation at the instant the spring
becomes unfastened.

2)  1

3)  The spring would stretch out of shape and become permanently deformed, making it
unsuitable for further use.

4)  2

5)  If you begin the timing on the count of one and count to twenty, you will have
timed only 19 actual oscillations.

6)  1

7)  The force that Earth exerts on the hanging mass is called weight. The weight of the
mass is the actual force that stretches the spring. Weight = mg, where g is the
acceleration of gravity, 9 8 . m s2 .

8)  2,3

9)  (a) Measure the elongation caused by hanging various masses from the spring,
and use Hooke's law to calculate k.
(b) Measure the period of oscillation for a vibrating mass hung on the spring,
and find k from the equation for the period of a simple harmonic oscillator.

10)  Simple harmonic motion is a vibration caused by a force that follows Hooke's law. It
is motion in which the acceleration is directed toward the center of the motion and is
directly proportional to the displacement from its equilibrium position.
