A close-coiled helical spring undergoes a static deflection of 30 mm when a mass of 2.5 kg is placed on its lower end. The mass is then pulled downwards through a further distance of 20 mm and released so that it oscillates about the static equilibrium position.

Question
A close-coiled helical spring undergoes a static deflection of 30 mm when a mass of 2.5 kg is placed on its lower end.
The mass is then pulled downwards through a further distance of 20 mm and released so that it oscillates about the
static equilibrium position. Neglecting air resistance, energy losses in the spring material and the mass of the spring
determine (a) the periodic time and natural frequency of vibration and (b) the maximum velocity and acceleration of
the mass and (c) the behaviour of spring during oscillation.
