When a 1.1 kg mass is hung from a spring it is found to stretch by 11 cm. The spring is stretched an additional 5 cm and released.
(a) What is the spring constant for the spring?
N/m
(b) What is the frequency of oscillation?
Hz
(c) What is the period of oscillation?
s
(d) What is the maximum potential energy?
J
(e) What is the speed of the mass when its position is at x = 2.5 cm?
m/s
(f) If the mass on the spring is doubled, what is the new period of oscillation?
s
