Min Min is hanging from her spring-arms off the edge of the level. Due to the spring like nature of her arms she is bouncing up and down in simple harmonic motion with a maximum displacement from equilibrium of 0.118 m. The spring constant of Min-Min’s arms is 9560. N/m and she has a mass of 87.5 kg. What is the period at which she oscillates? Find her maximum speed. Find her speed when she is located 5.00 cm from her equilibrium position.
