A spring hangs vertically with one end attached to a suspension point. A mass of 0.68 kg is attached to the other end of the spring (spring constant 128 N/m) and allowed to hang in the earth's gravitational field. If the mass + spring system were made to oscillate, what would the frequency be? (PUHQ544)
