The frequency f of a mass–spring system depends on m and spring constant ks: f = C,m^aks^b. Then

  1. a = 12, b = - 12
  2. a = - 12, b = 12
  3. a = 1, b = -1
  4. a = -1, b = 1
Answer

B) a = - 12, b = 12

T^-1 = M^a( MT^-2)^b: T: b = 12; M: a + b = 0 Rightarrow a = - 12: f = C ks/m. SLO P-11-A-04 · Application
