An oscillator consists of a block attached to a spring (k= 425N/m). At some time t, the position (measured from the system's equilibrium location), velocity and acceleration of the block are x= 0.100m, `v= 13.6m//s, and a= -123m//s^(2)`. Calculate (a) the frequency of oscillation, (b) the mass of the block and (c ) the amplitude of the motion.
