Answer:

elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between these two forces can be found with Newton's second law.


F_(e) - W = m a

K x - m g = m a

We see that elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

If a harmonic movement is desired, an extra force that increases the elastic force is applied, but to begin the movement this force is eliminated, in general , if the relationship between this external and elastic force is desired, the only requirement is that it be small for harmonic movement to occur
