You are given a magical spring which has an odd restoring force, F = -kx', THIS IS NOT THE TYPICAL SPRING RESTORING FORCE (remember, this is a magical, supernatural spring!) calculate: a) The work done by an external force stretching the spring a distance L away from the equilibrium length. b) At a stretch length L, how much potential energy is stored in the spring? c) If a mass m is attached to the spring and released from a stretch length L, what is the maximum velocity of the mass? d) At what x coordinate does this maximum velocity occur?
