Physics: Spring Constant
Consider the following data for an experiment to study the spring constant by dynamic method:
Number of oscillations, N = 25
Load M1 = 120 gm; average time for N oscillations = 11.0 seconds
Load M2 = 280 gm; average time for N oscillations = 16.9 seconds
Calculate the spring constant k. (Note that the mass of the hanger is not given.)
