Finding a formula for displacement of a mass on a spring using v.
I have tried to answer this using the relevant equations I am provided on my formula sheet, however I get stuck pretty close to the end. I start with 1/2mv^2=1/2kx^2 at the equilibrium position, and kx=mg, x=mg/k. This gets me to v^2=mg^2/k, but I don't know where to go from there. The potential...- hamishmidd
