Determine the number of oscillations of the weight on the spring for a time equal to 20

Determine the number of oscillations of the weight on the spring for a time equal to 20 s if the frequency of its oscillations is 4 Hz. what is the period of oscillation.

Data: t (time during which the weight oscillated on the spring) = 20 s; ν (frequency of vibration of the load) = 4 Hz.

1) Let’s calculate the number of vibrations of the load on the spring: n = ν * t = 4 * 20 = 80 vibrations.

2) Determine the period of oscillation of the load: T = 1 / ν = 1/4 = 0.25 s.

Answer: The number of oscillations is 80, the period of oscillation of the load is 0.25 s.
