That could be a comet, or any one of the billions of meteoroids
moving in a cloud that's actually the remains of a shattered comet.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Spring constant (k) = 78 N/m, 
Mass of block (m) = 0.50 kg
According to the formula of energy conservation,
mgh sin 
h = 
= 
= 0.64 m
Thus, we can conclude that the distance traveled by the block is 0.64 m.
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( V initial + V final ) *t
We know
a = -9.8 m/s2
t=120s
To find distance fallen, we need to find V final
Use the equation
V final = V initial + a*t
Substitute known values
V final = 0 + (-9.8)(120)
V final = -1176 m/s
Then plug known values to distance fallen equation
Distance fallen = 1/2 ( 0 + 1176 )(120)
= 1/2(1776)(120)
=106,560 m
This way plugging into distance equation is actually the long way. A faster way is to plug the values into
Distance fallen = V initial * t + 1/2(a*t)
We won't need to find V final using another equation.
But anyways, good luck!
The frequency of the oscillation in hertz is calculated to be 0.00031 Hz.
The frequency of a wave is defined as the number of cycles completed per second while the period refers to the time taken to complete a cycle. The frequency is the inverse of period.
So;
Period(T) = 54 minutes or 3240 seconds
Frequency (f) = T-1 = 1/T = 1/3240 seconds = 0.00031 Hz
