Explanation / Answer

here,

Max potential = kinetic + potential

0.5 * kA^2 = 0.5 * kx^2 + 0.5 * mv^2

kA^2 = kx^2 + mv^2

A^2 = x^2 + mv^2 / k

A^2 = x^2 + mv^2 / mw^2

A^2 = x^2 + ( v/w )^2

A^2 = ( 5.2 cm )^2 + ( - 17 cm/s / (2 * pi * 3.1) )^2

A = 5.27 cm

velocity = v(t)

v(t) = Aw·cos( wt + phi0 )

- 17 cm/s = ( 5.27 cm )( 2 * pi * 3.1 )cos( 0 + phi0 )

-0.166 = cos( phi0 )

phi0 = 1.4 radians

Position = s(t)

= A·sin[ wt + phi0 ]

= ( 5.27 cm )sin[ (2 * pi * 3.1)( 0.4 s ) + 1.4 ]

s(t) = 0.84 cm
