Question 1
This question is in two parts. Part 1 is about simple harmonic motion (SHM). Part 2 is about gas in an engine.
Part 1 Simple harmonic motion (SHM)
An object is placed on a frictionless surface. The object is attached by a spring fixed at one end and oscillates at the end of the spring with simple harmonic motion (SHM).
The tension F in the spring is given by F=k x where x is the extension of the spring and k is a constant.
