Problem

0.50\,\text{kg}

mass attached to a spring performs simple harmonic oscillations. Successive maximum positive displacements occur at

t = 0.25\,\text{s}

and

t = 0.75\,\text{s}

. Each maximum displacement has magnitude

6.0\,\text{cm}

. Calculate: (i) the time period of oscillation, (ii) the force constant of the spring.
