(a) f = [1/(2 pi)]*sqrt(k/M) Hz
(b) P = 1/f is the Period
(c) Vmax = A*(2*pi*f)
A must be in meters to get V in m/s
(d) Fmax = A*k
A must be in meters to get F in Newtons
M = 0.24 kg
(b) P = 1/f is the Period
(c) Vmax = A*(2*pi*f)
A must be in meters to get V in m/s
(d) Fmax = A*k
A must be in meters to get F in Newtons
M = 0.24 kg
