Expert Solution

The initial potential energy is

                    U = ( 1/ 2) k x ^2   = ( 1/2 ) ( 240 N / m ) ( 0.12 m )^2

                                                = 1.728 J

Maximum velocity of the mass is

                v = sqrt ( k / m ) x   = sqrt( ( 240 N /m) / ( 0.20 kg ) ) (0.12 m)   = 4.156 m/s

potential energy when the mass is at 6 cm is

             U' = ( 1/ 2) ( 250 N /m ) ( 0.06 m )^2   = 0.45 J

kinetic energy

           K = ( 1/2 ) k A^2   - ( 1/ 2 ) k x ^2

                = ( 0.5 ) ( 250 N /m ) ( 0.12 ^2 - 0.06 ^2 )

                = 1.35 J

velocity of the mass is

           v = sqrt ( 2 K / m ) = sqrt ( 2 ( 1.35 J / 0.2 kg ))

                                         = 3.67 m/s
