At a grocery store, a spring scale (spring constant = 450 N/m) hangs near the produce section. The spring hangs vertically with a 0.250-kg pan suspended from its lower end. Jenna drops a 2.73-kg bag of oranges from a height of 30.0 cm above the pan. The pan and oranges start oscillating vertically in SHM. How far is the new equilibrium point of the pan (with oranges) below its position before the oranges were dropped on it?
