A block is hung from the end of a spring with spring constant 15 N/m and made to vibrate up and down with a maximum speed of 0.4m/s. The spring is held up by a force sensor, which is set to read 0N when the block is at rest on the end of the spring. The graph attached belwo shows the reading on the force sensor over time as the block vibrates. Plot the position-time and velocity-time graphs for the blocks as it vibrates. Explain with work and in words how you determined the shapes of these as well as their amplitudes.
