| A block of mass m is attached to a spring of spring constant k which
is attached to a wall as shown on the right.
(a) If the block starts at time t = 0 with the spring being at its rest length but the block having a velocity v0, find a solution for the mass's position at all subsequent times. Make any assumptions you like in order to have a plausible but solvable model, but state your assumptions explicitly. |

kinetic, potential, or a mixture of the two? (This is not a short answer question. Show how you know.)
