6. A spring with negligible mass has a relaxed length of 0.4 m. A mass of 2.5 kg is attached to one end. An astronaut in outer space picks up the opposite end of the spring and swings the mass in a circle with constant speed. She notices that it makes 25 revolutions in 10 seconds and the spring length is now 0.5 m. What is the stiffness of the spring?
