Answer:
the total energy does not change if the mass is doubled and the amplitude is constant
B. The kinetic and potential energies at a given point in its motion is not affected by the change in mass
Explanation:
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2} *kA^{2)[/tex]
The total energy stored by an object-spring balance is the equation above
E= Energy stored in the spring
k= spring constant
A= amplitude
if the mass is doubled ,and amplitude remains constant the energy does not change
also [tex]E=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}[/tex]
The total energy is given by the above. if the mass is doubled, the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy remains the same at a given point and can't be affected by the change
x=displacement from equilibrium
v=velocity of the object
k= spring constant
m=mass of the object
