A block with a speaker bolted to it is connected to a spring having the spring constant k = 40 N/m. The total mass of the block and speaker is 8.00 kg, and the amplitude of this unit's motion is 0.500 m. If the speaker emits sound waves of frequency 440 Hz, determine the highest and lowest frequencies heard by the person to the right of the speaker?
