Problem

A 0.40 kg0.40\,\text{kg} mass is attached to a spring with force constant 25 N ⁣⋅ ⁣m−125\,\text{N}\!\cdot\!\text{m}^{-1}. At the instant when its displacement from equilibrium is 0.30 m0.30\,\text{m}, the mass has a speed of 0.50 m ⁣⋅ ⁣s−10.50\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1}. What is the amplitude of the oscillation? (a) 0.36 m0.36\,\text{m} (b) 0.29 m0.29\,\text{m} (c) 0.31 m0.31\,\text{m} (d) 0.24 m0.24\,\text{m}
