Engineering Electric field in spherical shell - trying to understand the location

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around confusion regarding a question about the electric field in a spherical shell. Participants express difficulty in understanding the inquiry, leading to frustration. Ultimately, the original poster decides to withdraw the question. The conversation highlights challenges in communicating complex physics concepts. Clarity in posing questions is essential for effective discussion.
I’m looking at the attached vibration problem. The solution in the manual includes the spring potential energy but does NOT include the gravitational potential energy of the hanging mass.
Can someone explain why gravitational potential energy is not included when deriving the equation of motion? I tried asking ChatGPT but kept going in circles and couldn't figure out.
Thanks!
