Question

margaret pulls a slinky a distance of 22 inches from its equilibrium position and then releases it. the time for one oscillation is 2 seconds. step 1 of 2 : find the amplitude and period of the slinky.

Explanation:

Step1: Define amplitude

Amplitude is maximum displacement from equilibrium. Given she pulls 22 inches, so amplitude is 22 inches.

Step2: Define period

Period is time for one - oscillation. Given time for one oscillation is 2 seconds, so period is 2 seconds.

Answer:

Amplitude: 22 inches
Period: 2 seconds
