I'm having trouble figuring this out when I put the y components together the theta gets canceled out and velocity is not linear in this problem and I have no idea where my mistake was

I'm having trouble figuring out this problem. I know how to solve the problem if the angular velocity was known but there seem to be too many unknowns to be able to generate graphs. If anyone can offer advice that would be great.

it isn't an actual spring the equation is for package cushioning in a box the equation was right thanks for the help I got it

I'm given the force of a spring in the form F(x) = 3.133x - 4.333x^2 +5.333x^3 - 2.667x^4+.5333x^5 and asked to find the maximum velocity of an object so that the force does not exceed 12 lbs My approach was to find x from the force equation which was about 2.5 inches and then set the kinetic...
