A monkey has a cart with a horizontal spring attached to it that she uses for different tricks. In one trick, the monkey sits on the vibrating cart. When the cart reaches its maximum displacement from equilibrium, the monkey picks up a 0.30-kg cantaloupe from a trainer. The mass of the monkey and the
