A new type of spring is found where the spring force F is given by F=-kx + bx^2 where k=400 N/ m and b=100 N/m^2 and x is the expansion (or compression) of the spring from its equilibrium position. The spring is attached to a point mass of 1 kg sitting on a horizontal ...

Total mass = water mass + alcohol mass + continer mass. The mass of alcohol added was 510 - 130 - 160 g = 220 g, since the 160 mL of water had a mass of 160 g.
