It asks about the displacement of that particle

    This looks like homework so you need to show your work or your question will be closed. – Transistor Dec 27 '23 at 18:56
  • okay, i will upload it tomorrow. – cici Dec 27 '23 at 19:03
  • Anybody else see a problem with b(i)? – Greg Locock Dec 28 '23 at 03:29
  • I already update my work, the problem is the unstretched length and the height does not given – cici Dec 28 '23 at 13:27
  • The length of the spring is not important. The assumptions are the length is longer than the compression and the stiffness is the same for the amount of compression needed. – JohnHoltz Dec 28 '23 at 14:03
  • I'm sorry but I don't get it. What do you mean by the stiffness being the same? How to calculate if there are no any length is given? – cici Dec 28 '23 at 17:49
  • For ease of discussion assume there is a little bit of friction so that it does come to rest and theta is 90. The equilibrium position will then be when the force in the springs equals the weight of the mass. hence mg=(k1+k2)x . – Greg Locock Dec 28 '23 at 21:41
  • Free Body Diagram the mass. What are all the forces acting on it? Hint: draw one for each spring, and at least two others. – Abel Dec 28 '23 at 22:54
