I have a spring of known rate preloaded inside a device where it is contacting a free object. The spring is pulled back a known distance and then released. The spring continues until it reaches the stop which is where its initial preload is and then the object continues. I need to know the acceleration of that object so I can determine the force. I know the mass of the object.
Here's some number to go with it to help.
Spring free length = 2.300"
Preloaded Height = .866"
Spring Rate = 4.255 lbf/in
I am compressing the spring .095" more to a height of .771" then letting go.
The object has a mass of 4.9g
Thanks for the help.
