About This Product
A spring is hung from a stand, its original length noted, and the extended length measured for each added weight. A graph of load against extension gives the spring constant, and setting a loaded spring bouncing turns the same kit into an oscillation practical.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the extension of each spring found?
Subtract the original length of the spring from its length with the weight attached, and repeat for different weights.
