Question 17, chap 15, sect 3.

part 1 of 2 10 points
A 1.83 kg object on a frictionless horizontal
track is attached to the end of a horizontal
spring whose force constant is 4.9 N/m. The
object is displaced 4.01 m to the right from its
equilibrium position and then released, which
initiates simple harmonic motion.
What is the magnitude of the force acting
on the object 3.76 s after it is released?
Answer in units of N.
Question 18, chap 15, sect 3.
part 2 of 2 10 points
How many times does the object oscillate
in 3.76 s?
Answer in units of turn.
