Question
A 5.00 kg partridge is suspended from a pear tree by an ideal spring of negligible mass. When the partridge is pulled down 0.100 m below its equilibrium position and released, it vibrates with a period of 3.40 s. What is its speed as it passes through the equilibrium position? What is a magnitude of its acceleration when it is 0.050 m above the equilibrium position? When it is moving upward, how much time is required for it to move from a point 0.050 m below its equilibrium position to a point 0.050 m above it?
