Homework Statement
A 100 g ball is attached to a spring with spring constant 2.5 N/m oscillates horizontally on a frictionless table. Its velocity is 20 cm/s when x = -5.0 cm. What is the amplitude of the oscillation?
Homework Equations
x = Acos(ωt +φ )
V= -ωAcos(ωt +φ )
The Attempt at a Solution
ω = Square root (k/m) = 5 rad/s
-0.05 = Acos(ωt +φ )
0.2 = -ωAcos(ωt +φ )
Not sure how to solve for A
