Crazy Cat Problem #3


Watching Snow Flakes
Originally uploaded by Ewwwww.

My crazy cat Theo told me that he had a dream last night that he (AKA ‘little baby’) was enormous, and I shrank extremely small to mass m. Theo turned me into a cat toy by attaching a spring (with some spring constant k) to my back and suspending the spring vertically from a door knob. He held me in his paw such that the spring was not stretched. He lets go, making me oscillate to a max distance of 20cm from the release point. If I oscillate at more than 1 Hz, I will lose my grip and fall into Theo’s giant claws. Are Theo’s dreams of play or homicide?

Good thing it was all a dream, or you'd be cat food.
