Question

Explain the relation between the period and the other variable below in spring, show your point using formula.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The period in spring can be calculated as

`T=2\pi\sqrt{(m)/(k)}`

Where m is the mass attached and k is the spring constant.

Answer:

Taking into account this formula, we can conclude the following:

- Period vs. Stretch distance.

The formula doesn't include the stretch distance, so the period is independent of the stretch distance. No matter what is the stretch distance the period will not change.

- Period vs. Mass attached

The period is proportional to the square root of the mass, so when the mass is greater the period is greater.

-Period vs. Spring constant

The period is inversely proportional to the square root of the spring constant, so when the spring constant increases, the period decreases.
