Chapter 14: Problem 32
A block with mass \(m =\) 0.300 kg is attached to one end of an ideal spring and moves on a horizontal frictionless surface. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall. When the block is at \(x = +\)0.240 m, its acceleration is \(a_x = -\)12.0 m/s\(^{2}\) and its velocity is \(v_x = +\)4.00 m/s. What are (a) the spring's force constant \(k\); (b) the amplitude of the motion; (c) the maximum speed of the block during its motion; and (d) the maximum magnitude of the block's acceleration during its motion?
