### Simple Harmonic Motion and VelocityIn this example, we explore the motion of a mass attached to the end of a horizontal spring that oscillates without any friction.**Question:**A mass is attached to the end of a horizontal spring that oscillates frictionlessly. At which point in the motion of the mass does it have zero velocity?**Options:**1. **○ At \( x = 0 \), the equilibrium point** - The point where the spring is neither compressed nor stretched and the velocity is maximum, not zero. 2. **○ At \( x = \pm A/2 \), midway between equilibrium and the endpoints** - The velocity is not zero at these points. At these positions, the mass is in motion either towards or away from the equilibrium position.3. **○ At \( x = \pm A \), the endpoints of its motion** - Correct! The velocity of the mass becomes zero at the endpoints of its oscillation. This is because these points are where the direction of motion reverses.4. **○ Nowhere, the velocity is always positive** - This is incorrect because the mass will come to a stop momentarily at the endpoints, implying a zero velocity at those points.**Explanation:**The point where the velocity of an oscillating mass is zero is at the endpoints of its motion (\( x = \pm A \)). At these endpoints, the mass momentarily comes to a halt before changing direction. Thus, the correct answer is:**○ At \( x = \pm A \), the endpoints of its motion**

A spring with a spring constant of k = 192 N/m is initially compressed by a block a distance d = 0.23 m. The block is on a horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction μk, static friction μs, and has a mass of m = 7 kg. How large would the coefficient of static friction μs need to be to keep the block from moving? Recall that to keep the block from moving, the acceleration is zero. Assuming the block has just begun to move and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.2, what is the block's acceleration in meters per square second?
