a) T = 2pi / w so w = 2 pi / T
w = sqrt ( k / m )
so k = w² / m
b) (1/2)* k * xmax ² = 2,00 J
so, xmax = sqrt( 2,00 * 2 / k)
A 200-g block is attached to a horizontal spring and executes simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.250 s. If the total energy of the system is 2.00 J, find
(a) The force constant of the spring and
(b) The amplitude of the motion.

Actually for part a it's;
k=w^2*m
k=w^2*m
