An Object Attached to a Coiled Spring Is Pulled Down a=17;T=5a = 17 ; \quad \mathrm { T } = 5

Question 1

Multiple Choice

An object attached to a coiled spring is pulled down a distance a from its rest position and then released. Assuming that
the motion is simple harmonic with period T, write an equation that relates the displacement d of the object from its rest
position after t seconds. Also assume that the positive direction of the motion is up.
- a=17;T=5a = 17 ; \quad \mathrm { T } = 5 seconds


A) d=17sin(25πt) d = - 17 \sin \left( \frac { 2 } { 5 } \pi t \right)
B) d=17cos(25πt) \mathrm { d } = - 17 \cos \left( \frac { 2 } { 5 } \pi \mathrm { t } \right)
C) d=17cos(15πt) \mathrm { d } = - 17 \cos \left( \frac { 1 } { 5 } \pi \mathrm { t } \right)
D) d=5cos(217πt) d = - 5 \cos \left( \frac { 2 } { 17 } \pi t \right)
