A block of mass m, attached to a spring of force constant k, undergoes a simple harmonic motion on a horizontal frictionless surface. The mechanical energy of the block-spring system is E = 2.3 J. If its maximum speed is v_max = 2 m/s, then its mass is: Om = 1.28 kg m = 1.15 kg m = 0.8 kg m = 1.38 kg
