At what distance from equilibrium will it have acceleration equal to half its mximum acceleration?Show work!?

Question

A mass attached to the end of a spring is streched a distance X from equilibrium and released. At what distance from equilibrium will it have acceleration equal to half its maximum acceleration? How do you show the work for this equation?

Answer 1

Acceleration and Force are directly related. So the question is the same as asking for the position that gives 1/2 max force.

Spring force and displacement are directly related. So the question is the same as asking for the displacement that is1/2 max displacement.
