    How Do You Calculate the Oscillation Frequency of a Compressed Rubber Pad?

    So, I'm trying to brush up on my undergrad physics, and I'm sure this is a bone-headed question, so please bear with me. Homework Statement A heavy object, when placed on a rubber pad that is to be used as a shock absorber, compresses the pad by 1cm. If the object is given a vertical tap, it...
