    Period of nonlinear spring-mass system

    x=displacement a=amplitude q=spring constant m=mass p=period The energy stored by the spring for a given displacement is given by the integral of the force over the displacement. E_{spring}=\int_{0}^{x} q*x^3 dx which evaluates to E_{spring}=q*x^4/4 when the mass is at it's...
