A 06 kg mass slides on a frictionless cylindrical surface Th

A 0.6 kg mass slides on a frictionless cylindrical surface. The mass is attached to a spring with a constant, k = 125 N/m and equilibrium length of 100mm (0.1m). If the mass is released from rest at point A, determine its speed at point B.

Solution

By Conservationof energy

(1/2)KX² =(1/2)mV²

125*0.1² = 0.6*V²

V=1.4433 m/s
