Find the total energy of the system. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2
a) Find the total energy of the system.
b) Find the gravitational potential energy at maximum downward displacement.
c) Find the potential energy in the spring at maximum downward displacement.
d) What is the maximum kinetic energy of the object?
