An ideal spring dangles from the ceiling at its relaxed lengthof 5 cm. A 3-kg mass is carefully hung from the end of the springwhile the spring is relaxed, and then the mass is released fromrest at time t = 0, which begins to stretch the spring. The springstretches to its maximum length at time t = 130 ms when the massreaches its lowest point. Then the mass returns upward, shorteningthe spring. The oscillation diminishes due to linear drag so thatthe spring quickly settles to a length of 6.5 cm, holding the massat a constant height. Calculate the maximum length that the springreaches during this motion. Calculate to within 10 ppm, and expressyour answer in centimeters
