Question: A mass with m = 6 5 0 . 0 g is hung vertically from a strange spring which has force F = - ax

A mass with m=650.0 g is hung vertically from a strange spring which has force F =-ax3, where a=25.0 N/m3 and x=0 corresponds to the equilibrium position of the spring with no mass on it (here x is in the vertical direction). a)[3 points] What is the new equilibrium position for the mass when it is hung from the spring? b)[7 pts] What is the frequency for small oscillations when this mass is hung from this spring?
