Hooke's Law Hooke's law states that the force required to stretch the spring will be directly proportional to the amount of stretch or the displacement of the string from its equilibrium. The mathematical …

As a portion of an workout routine to strengthen their pectoral muscles a man stretches a spring which has a spring constant k = 420 N/m. a)Write an equation for the work necessary to stretch the spring …

Q4.A damped spring, constrained to move in one direction, such as might be found in a railway buffer, is subjected to an unit impulse of duration 5 seconds. The spring constant divided by the mass causing …

A mass weighing 16 pounds is attached to a spring whose spring constant is 25 Ib/ft. Find the equation of motion. (Use g = 32 ft/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. Assume t is measured in seconds.) …

In questions 2, 3, and 4 you assumed that the spring was massless. This means that the period, T, of the spring could be calculated by equation 2, T = 2√/m/k, where m is the mass attached to the spring …

This means you can use the k = mg/x to find the spring constant. In this formula, g=9.8 m/s2 is the acceleration due to gravity. Before you substitute your values into the spring constant equation, you …

To find the spring constant using Hooke’s Law, we will need to rearrange equation 1 and solve for k.

A mass weighing 8 pounds is attached to a spring. When set in motion, the spring/mass system exhibits simple harmonic motion. (a) Determine the equation of motion if the spring constant is 1 lb/ft and the …
