You hang different masses M from the lower end of a vertical spring and measure the period T for each value of M. You use Excel to plot 72 (in s²) on the y-axis versus M (in kg) on the x-axis. The equation for the straight line that gives the best fit to your data is y = 0.0598x + 0.00400. Units are not specified but are determined by the units of what is being graphed. (a) What is the force constant k of the spring? (b) What is the mass of the spring?

A vibration sensor, used in testing a washing machine, consists of a cube of aluminum 1.50 cm on edge mounted on one end of a strip of spring steel (like a hacksaw blade) that lies in a vertical plane. The strips mass is small compared with that of the cube, but the strips length is large compared with the size of the cube. The other end of the strip is clamped to the frame of the washing machine that is not operating. A horizontal force of 1.43 N applied to the cube is required to hold it 2.75 cm away from its equilibrium position. If it is released, what is its frequency of vibration?
