A Hooke's spring (k = 20 N/m) hangs from a ceiling at rest. A 400 g mass is then hooked onto the lowest end of the spring (position A) and then allowed to drop. (use g = 10.0 for this question only, and assume no friction) a) What will be the new equilibrium position (position B) of the mass? b) What will be the maximum extension (position C) of the spring? c) Complete the chart on the right. (use height zero at maximum extension) d) What is the maximum speed reached by the mass? A B C Eg Ex E ET ent A Hooke's spring (k = 20 N/m) hangs from a ceiling at rest.
