A 3.00-kg fish is attached to the lower end of a vertical spring that has negligible mass
Question:
A 3.00-kg fish is attached to the lower end of a vertical spring that has negligible mass and force constant 900 N/m. The spring initially is neither stretched nor compressed. The fish is released from rest.
(a) What is its speed after it has descended 0.0500 m from its initial position?
(b) What is the maximum speed of the fish as it descends?
Step by Step Answer:
Identify Only conservative forces gravity and the spring act on the fish so its mechanical ...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
