A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.300-kg mass is hung from it.
The spring is then horizontally
attached to a wall, and the same mass is attached to it, on a
frictionless horizontal surface. Then the mass
is pulled outward, so that the spring is stretched 0.100 m, and let
go, the mass oscillating back and forth.
Determine
(a) the values of the spring constant k and the angular frequency
!,
(b) the amplitude A of the oscillation,
(c) the maximum velocity Vmax,
(d) the maximum acceleration amax of the mass,
(e) the frequency f and the period T,
(f) the displacement x as a function of time t,
(g) the velocity v(t) at t = 0.150 s
(h) the total energy E of this oscillator.
