Chapter 3, Problem 3.104

(choose chapter or problem)

A 2 pound weight is attached to the lower end of a spring, stretching it 8/3 inches. The weight is allowed to come to rest in the equilibrium position. At some later time, which we call time 0, the weight is struck a downward blow of magnitude 1/4 pound (an impulse). Assume no damping in the system. Determine the velocity with which the weight leaves the equilibrium position as well as the frequency and magnitude of the oscillations.
