We have two different vertical mass-spring systems, as shown in the figure below.
(a). What is the frequency of system A? What is the first time at which the mass has maximum speed while
traveling in the upward direction?
(b). What is the period of system B? What is the first time at which the energy is entirely potential?
(c). Given that the mass is the same in both systems, what is the ratio of their spring constants? That is
what is kA/kB?
