The spring has a spring constant of 4:94 N=m, and the mass at the end of the spring is 0:5 kg. At t = 0, the mass is pulled up 0:1 m from the equilibrium position, x = 0, and released. Assume that the spring is massless, DRAW the best graph, including numbered tick marks on each axis, to predict the position vs. time for the mass. (As detected by a motion sensor on the floor.).
