Problem 3
This problem maps back to learning
objectives 1-4 & 8.
Consider the particle attached to a spring shown below. The particle
has a mass m and the spring has a spring constant k. The mass-spring
system makes an angle of 0 with respect to the vertical and the
distance between point 0 and the particle can be defined as r. The
spring is unstretched when r = l.
