Calculating Equilibrium Position of a Spring with a Hanging Mass
Question is: A particle hangs from a spring and oscillates with a period of 0.4 s. If the mass-spring system remained at rest, by how much would the mass stretch it from its normal equilibrium position? The acceler- ation of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. And the choices are: 1. 0.158872 m 2...- ricoxg

How to Calculate the Spring Constant from Frequency and Mass
Here is the question: -When a mass of 26 g is attached to a certain spring, it makes 20 complete vibrations in 3.1 s. What is the spring constant of the spring? Answer in units of N/m. My teacher gave me the formula to find the spring constant but i can't seem to get it right!? W=Sq Root of...- ricoxg
