Aspring with a mass on the end of it hangs in equilibrium a distance of 0.420 m above the floor. the mass is pulled down a distance of 0.060 m below the original position, released, and allowed to oscillate. how high above the floor is the mass at the highest point in its oscillation?

the highest point above the ground = 0.48 m

Explanation:

lets ignore air friction, spring details,

The rest mass hanges 0.42 m above the floor and you pull 0.06 m below the original position, this is done by putting energy into the stratched spring so that when released the mass will compress the spring and cover a distance 0.06 m above the rest height.

then the highest point the mass will attain is 0.42 m + 0.06 m = 0.48 m above the ground.

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..

heat the gas and measure the pressure
