Question:medium
A mass \( m \), suspended vertically by a massless ideal spring with spring constant \( k \), is at rest. The mass is displaced upward by a height \( h \). When released, the kinetic energy of the mass will be proportional to (Neglecting air resistance)
A mass \( m \), suspended vertically by a massless ideal spring with spring constant \( k \), is at rest. The mass is displaced upward by a height \( h \). When released, the kinetic energy of the mass will be proportional to (Neglecting air resistance)
Show Hint
In vertical spring systems, always consider both spring and gravitational potential energies.

- only \( h \)
- only \( h^2 \)
- \( m \)
- a linear combination of terms involving \( h \) and \( h^2 \)
- \( k \)
Show Solution
