A mass resting on a horizontal, frictionless surface is attachedto one end of a spring; the other end is fixed to a wall. It takes3.7 J of work to compress the spring by 0.14 m . If the spring iscompressed, and the mass is released from rest, it experiences amaximum acceleration of 12 m/s2.
Find the value of the spring constant.
Find the value of the mass.
