Does Spilled Mercury Exceed EPA Air Quality Limits in the Lab?
My professor did not offer up that information in the question. A couple other students in my class were able to solve it with the information given, but I am at a loss. I appreciate you trying :)- knottlena

Simple Harmonic Motion confusion
[b]1. A 14.7g mass is attached to a frictionless horizontal spring. After the spring was stretched a certain distance and released, its maximum speed was found to be 4.22 m/s. If the speed at x = -2.84 cm is 1.63 m/s, what is the frequency of the oscillating spring? [b]2. PEe = kx^2/2 E=KE...- knottlena
