What is the period of this motion: a mass M hanging vertically from a spring, of spring constant k, under the influence of gravity.
I figured:
Mg-ky=Ma=Mw^2y
(w being angular freguency)
I know the solution(T=2pi * seqroot(M/k)) but how can I get there?? how can I eliminate Mg? Mg=k*ʌy equation leads to nowhere
