    Calculating Spring Constant and Energy Conservation: How Fast Will the Bag Drop?

    1. Problem Statement: A vertical spring has one end attached to the ceiling and a 3kg bag attached to the other one. When the system is at rest, the spring is stretched by 40cm. 1) determine the spring constant. 2) Let the bag drop from a position in which the spring is not deformed. Using the...
