  1. 0
  2. q/20
  3. q/6 0
  4. q/8 0
  5. depends on the size of the cube

Answer to Question 1

2,3

Answer to Question 2

(a) Measure the elongation caused by hanging various masses from the spring,
and use Hooke's law to calculate k.
(b) Measure the period of oscillation for a vibrating mass hung on the spring,
and find k from the equation for the period of a simple harmonic oscillator.
