A 50g mass attached to a spring is pulled slightly away from equilibrium and released. The mass then oscillates about the equilibrium position at a frequency determined by the stiffness of the spring. The displacement of the mass over time is tracked and represented in the graph.
a. Determine the period of one oscillation.
b. What is the angular frequency of this harmonic motion?
c. Find the displacement at t = 10s.
d. Find the spring constant (k) for this spring.
