$m g=(0.10 \mathrm{kg})\left(10 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\right)=1 \mathrm{N}$

$\mathrm{mg}=4 \mathrm{x}_{0}^{1 / 2}$

$x_{0}=0.0625 \mathrm{m}$

$k_{e}=\left(\frac{d F}{d x}\right)_{x_{0}}=4 \times \frac{1}{2} x^{-1 / 2}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{x_{0}}}=2 \times 4=8 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$

$f_{n}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{k_{e}}{m}}}{2 \pi}=\frac{\sqrt{\frac{8}{0.1}}}{2 \pi}=\frac{4 \sqrt{5}}{2 \pi}$

    A particle performs $S.H.M.$ of amplitude $A$ with angular frequency $\omega$  along a straight line. Whenit is at a distance  $\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}$ $A$  from mean position, its kinetic energy gets increased by an amount $\frac{1}{2}m{\omega ^2}{A^2}$  due to an impulsive force. Then its new amplitude becomes
