$A$ mass on a vertical spring begins its motion at rest at $y = 0 \ cm$. It reaches a maximum height of $y = 10 \ cm$. The two forces acting on the mass are gravity and the spring force. The graph of its kinetic energy $(KE)$ versus position is given below. Net force on the mass varies with $y$ as

  • A
    $F = 4y - 20$
  • B
    $F = 20 - 4y$
  • C
    $F = \frac{8}{25}(y - 5)$
  • D
    $F = \frac{8}{25}(5 - y)$
