A 175 g mass is connected to a light spring of force constant 2 N/m that is free to oscillate on a horizontal, frictionless track. The mass is displaced 3 cm from the equilibrium point and released from rest.
a.) Find the period of the motion.
Answer in units of s.
b.) What is the maximum speed of the mass? Answer in units of m/s.
c.)
What is the maximum acceleration of the mass? Answer in units of m/s^2 .
