(c) At what distance from the spring-mass system's equilibrium position does it have the smallest acceleration? Explain your reasoning.arrow_forwardA 0.4 kg mass is attached to a spring that can compress as well as stretch (spring constant 50 N/m). The mass and spring are resting on a horizontal tabletop. The mass is pulled, stretching the spring 48 cm. When it is released, the system begins to oscillate. (b) Now assume that the effects of friction are not negligible. When pulled back and released as before, the mass now reaches its furthest distance from equilibrium at 40 cm on the compressed side (before bouncing back again). Construct a complete Energy-System Diagram that could be used to determine the amount of energy transferred to thermal systems when going from the initial stretched position to where it first momentarily stops.arrow_forward
