Question:

An object of mass m is held near the origin by a spring, F = −kx. What is its potential energy? Show that x(t) = (x0, y0, z0) cos ωt is a possible classical motion for the mass. What is the energy of this solution? Is this the most general motion? If not, give an example of another solution.
