An apple weighs 1.35 N. When you hang it from the end of a long spring of force constant 2.4 N/m and negligible mass, it bounces up and down in SHM. If you stop the bouncing and let the apply swing from side to side through a small angle, the frequency of this simple pendulum is 1/3 of the bounce frequency. What is the unstretched length of the spring with the apple removed? 4.50 m 4.62 m 4.28 m 4.73 m 4.41 m
