Homework Statement
Show how you use calculus to find the time when the magnitude of the Spring Force reaches its maximum. Then, when you found that time show how you calculate the Spring force at that time as well.
m = 1.125kg
vi = .8 m/s
k = 2250 N/m
x = 0m
Homework Equations
Fs (t) = [-mvi sqrt(k/m)] sin (sqrt(k/m)t)
The Attempt at a Solution
So the homework provided the Time and we had to find the Spring Force and put them in a table, which I did. After viewing the graph I figured, that the magnitude reaches its maximum between .03 and .04, but I can't figure out how to find that.
I didn't know how to make a table on here, but I tried the best I could
Code:
time (t) | Spring Force (F)
0 0
.01 | -17.41
.02 | -31.39
.03 | -39.2
.04 | -39.3
.05 | -31.67
.06 | -17.81
.07 | -.45
