Question
A horizontal spring-mass system has low friction, spring stiffness 210 N/m, and mass 0.6 kg. The system is released with an initial compression of the spring of 11 cm and an initial speed of the mass of 3 m/s.
suppose that there is energy dissipation of 0.02 J per cycle of the spring-mass system. What is the average power input in watts required to maintain a steady oscillation?
