A block of mass is attached to the end of an ideal spring. Due to the weight of the block, the block remains at rest when the spring is stretched a distance from its equilibrium length. The spring has an unknown spring constant.
A. What is the spring constant?
B. Suppose that the block gets bumped and undergoes a small vertical displacement. Find the resulting angular frequency of the block's oscillation about its equilibrium position.
If a mass of 600.0 g is hung from the bottom of a vertical spring, the spring will stretch 28.0 cm. Now the hanging mass is removed, and the spring is placed horizontally on a frictionless table. One end of the spring is held fixed and the other end is attached to a 370.0 g mass. The mass is then pulled out a distance of 14.0 cm
A 6.30 kg mass hanging from a spring scale is slowly lowered onto a vertical spring, as shown in the figure (*please see attachment)
A. What does the spring scale read just before the mass touches the lower spring?
B. The scale reads 16.0 N when the lower spring has been compressed by 2.70 cm. What is the value of the spring
Prove that when two springs are attached one at the end of the other, the coefficient of the final spring becomes
1 / (1/k1 + 1/k2 ) where k1 and k2 are the coefficient of the two individual springs.
Then consider two systems of springs, one in which a mass m is attached two the end of two springs which a
Solid, uniform cylinder of mass m and radius R is fitted with a frictionless axle along the cylinder's long axis. A horizontal spring (spring constant k) is attached to this axle. Under the influence of the spring, the cylinder rolls back and forth without slipping on a horizontal surface. What is the frequency of this motion?
A 10-cm-long spring is attached to the ceiling. When a 2.0 kg mass is hung from it, the spring stretches to a length of 15 cm.

(b) How long is the spring when a 3.0 kg mass is suspended from it?
Two springs with the same unstretched length, but different force constants and are attached to a block with mass on a level, frictionless surface. Calculate the effective force constant in each of the three cases depicted in the figure.

1. In a physics lab, you attach a 0.200 kg air-track glider to the end of an ideal spring of negligible mass and start it oscillating. The elapsed time from when the glider first moves through the equilibrium point to the second time it moves through that point is 2.60 s.

A mass M is connected to the end of a spring with mass m and force constant k. The mass of the spring is 7.40 g. When the mass/spring system is set into simple harmonic motion, the period of its motion is
