Abasket of negligible weight hangs from a vertical spring scale of force constant 1500 n/m . if you suddenly put an adobe brick of mass 3.00 kg in the basket, find the maximum distance that the spring will stretch. which of the following statements about the problem are true?
a. x the spring is initially unstretched.
b. after the brick has been placed in the basket, the spring is stretched.
c. x when the brick is first placed into the basket, it has zero velocity.
d. x when the spring is stretched to the maximum amount, the brick has zero velocity.
e. the brick’s final position is lower than its initial position.
