Question

Transcribed Image Text:A spring, hanging from the ceiling stretches 0.2 m when a 0.3 kg mass is gently suspended from it.
The spring is then removed from the ceiling and placed in a horizontal direction with the same 0.3 kg
mass resting on a frictionless surface. The mass is pulled such that the spring is stretched 0.15m from
the equilibrium point and released from rest. Using 10 for gravity, determine:
(a) The spring stiffness constant
