    What's wrong with this Spring Energy question?

    Homework Statement You are given a spring with some peculiar properties. Rather than the usual equation F = −kx, you find the spring is best modeled by the equation F = −kx − lambda(|x|^2)(xhat), where lambda has units of N/m^2. The unstretched length of the spring is x0. You attach the spring...
