Question
A mass of 0.3 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 0.75 m and whose unstretched length is 0.55 m. Next the mass is pulled down to where
the spring has a length of 1.05 m and given an initial speed upwards of 1.7 m/s. What is the maximum length of the spring during the motion that follows?
maximum length=
Hint: the conceptually-simplest approach is to track the changes in kinetic, spring-potential, and gravitational-potential energies; the mathematically-simplest
approach is to observe that the sole effect of gravitation is to lower the spring's equilibrium position, then track just the kinetic and spring-potential (relative to the
lower equilibrium) energies.
