Problem

A block of mass 0.5 kg0.5\,\text{kg} rests on a frictionless horizontal table. It is attached to a wall via a chain of three identical springs connected in series. Each spring has a stiffness constant k=300 N/mk = 300\,\text{N/m}. If the block is displaced 5 cm5\,\text{cm} from equilibrium and released, calculate the frequency of oscillation.
