A massless spring hangs from the ceiling with a small object attached to its lower end. The object is initially held at rest in aposition yi such that the spring is at its rest length. The object is then released from y; and oscillated up and down, with itslowest position being 10 cm below Yi.a. What is the frequency of oscillation?b. What is the speed (in m/s) of the object when it is 8 cm below the initial position?c. An object of mass 340 g is attached to the first object, after which the system oscillated with half the original frequency.What is the mass (in grams) of the first object?d. How far below (in cm) Yi is the new equilibrium (rest) position with both objects attached to the spring?

Part(a)The object oscillates about its equilibrium point, where the spring's upward push and…

One end of a spring is attached to the ceiling. The other end is attached to a block with mass m = 0.1kg. EXAM The block is pulled down and let go. We measure the length of the spring (L) as a function of time. This is shown in the graph. This experiment is done on Earth (g = 9.8 m/s2). a) What is the spring constant, k? b) What is the rest length of the spring? c) Using the physics of simple harmonic motion, find the maximum acceleration of the block. d) Using forces, free-body-diagrams, and Newton’s 2nd Law, find the maximum acceleration of the block.
