A 2.0-kg mass is attached to a vertical spring. The mass is held in place with the spring relaxed, and then released from rest. As the mass falls, it stretches the spring. If the spring has a force constant of 100 N/m, how fast is the mass moving after is has descended 3.0 cm? Ignore air resistance.
