mathematical pendulum 80 cm in length if at the initial moment the
pendulum

push;
(b) was in the equilibrium position and its lower end was imparted
the horizontal velocity 0.22 m/s;

4.34. A body A of mass m 1 = 1.00 kg and a body B of mass m 2 =
4.10 kg are interconnected by a spring as shown in Fig. 4.9. The
body A performs free vertical harmonic oscilla-
tions with amplitude a = 1.6 cm and frequency

find the maximum and minimum values of force
that this system exerts on the bearing surface.
4.35. A plank with a body of mass m placed
on it starts moving straight up according to
the law y = a (1 — cos cot), where y is the
displacement from the initial position, co = (^) Fig. 4.9.

(a) the time dependence of the force that the body exerts on the
plank if a = 4.0 cm; plot this dependence;
(b) the minimum amplitude of oscillation of the plank at which
the body starts falling behind the plank;
(c) the amplitude of oscillation of the plank at which the body
springs up to a height h = 50 cm relative to the initial position (at
the moment t = 0).
4.36. A body of mass in was suspended by a non-stretched spring,

from the equilibrium position;

cess of motion.

where a is a positive constant, r is the radius vector of the particle
relative to the origin of coordinates. Find the trajectory of its motion

and j are the unit vectors of the x and y axes.
4.38. A body of mass m is suspended from a spring fixed to the
ceiling of an elevator car. The stiffness of the spring is x. At the mo-
ment t = 0 the car starts going up with an acceleration w. Neglecting
the mass of the spring, find the law of motion y (t) of the body rela-
tive to the elevator car if y (0) = 0 and y (0) = 0. Consider the fol-
lowing two cases:
