Consider a system of two springs attached to a block on a frictionless horizontal surface as drawn above (not to scale). The springs have spring constants of k1 and k2 and the block has mass m. We define a coordinate system x that has its origin at the equilibrium position of the system. Write an equation for the net force on the block as a function of its displacement x from equilibrium. F = Part 3) If the system from Part 2 is set oscillating, write an expression for its resultant angular frequency.
