The students conduct experiment 2 in which the same block is connected to the same spring on a horizontal surface. The spring is stretched a distance L2 beyond its natural length and released from rest, allowing the block-spring system to oscillate. Frictional forces are considered to be negligible. Which of the following claims is correct about how the period of oscillation for the block-spring system in experiment 2 compares with the period of oscillation for the system in experiment 1, and what evidence supports the claim?

    the period does not change

    Explanation:

    In a system of connected spring and mass I was able to oscillate in a simple harmonic motion that is described by

    x = A cos (wt + Ф)

    Where A is the amplitude of movement, w the angular velocity and Ф the initial phase.

    Angular velocity is given by

    w² = k / m

    The angular velocity eta related to frequency

    w = 2π f

    Frequency and period are inverses

    f = 1 / T

    We substitute

    4π² / T² = k / m

    T = 2π √m/k

    As we ask to see the period does not depend on the amplitude, nor on the initial displacement, so the period does not change
