A 500.-g mass is attached to the end of an ideal, massless spring with constant 8.50 N/m, as shown. (These values are similar to those used in PHYS 151L Lab spring experiments.) The mass is initially displaced to the right of the spring's equilibrium position by a distance of 6.00 cm, then released at t= 0 and allowed to oscillate freely. For the following questions: Define the +x-direction for all quantities to be to the right. Each of the followinganswers may be POSITIVE or NEGATIVE! Define x = 0 at the spring's equilibrium position. Neglect all friction.What is the x-component of the mass's velocity 7.10 seconds after it is released? Convert your final answer to meters/second: Calculate and enter your final answer to at least 2 significant figures. There is no penalty for including too many significant figures, but rounding to too few sig figs may cause Laulima to judge your answer to be wrong. Do NOT enter units with your answer; enter only a numerical response. Laulima will count non-numerical answers as incorrect.
